Hi @Caro.Mark, hi @Jon M we are sorry to hear this is happening. The bug has been fixed quite some time ago. 

I just unlinked your accounts from Google+, unlinked all connected devices and sent you a password renewal link to your email address. Please click on the link in the email and enter a new password.

I would advise you to carry out the following steps in order to protect all your online accounts, not only Deezer:

  • Regularly scan your systems for malicious software
  • Avoid using the same password email combination for all online services
  • Change your password regularly and make sure it is a strong password combination
  • Use your email address as a login only
  • change other passwords (facebook and google)

Please let me know if you are still experiencing any further issues.

Even though I have only one page open, and no active device, I can not listen to music on my Deezer Premium, because I always get a notice that says: “Your Deezer account is currently being used on another device or page. Your account is strictly personal and cannot be used in multiple locations at the same time. Click below to resume play and pause all other devices.” Please help me solve this. Thank you.

I can’t listening my music on Deezer anymore, because every time a following message is displayed: “Your Deezer account is currently in listening mode on another device”. But there’s only one device connected, that is my Phone, as shown on app .
My account is premium, So I’d like a support from Deezer team to solve this issue.
I have try on differents phones but it doesn't work, I have changed my password many times and also I have log out.

Please Help me!!

Hi @Jul Zam I'd contact support here with as much information as you can give them 🙂 they should be able to assist.
I'm a "Deezerhead" (fanboy) and just love music! (Please note even though I love all things Deezer I do not work for Deezer and therefore cannot assist with account issues etc.)

Let us know how you get on 🙂

I have had exactly the same problem as above for the last few days.

I am the only one using the account and I only have one device linked.

I have also changed my password and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the App but am still getting the same issue.

This is massively frustrating...and also embarrassing when you have guests. Apart from switching back to Spotify or Amazon music that have never given me these problems 😉 do you have any other suggestions? Thanks

clean your phone's cache
remove the SD card (if you have one)
turn off your phone
turn on your phone
reinstall Deezer
open Deezer and download at least one album or playlist
reinsert the SD card (if you have one)

Let us know how you get on 🙂
