Hello, I keep finding music saved to my favourites and playlists that I have not set up or even listened to and also saying someone is listening the same time as I'm using my account. I have tried resetting my password, logging in and out and still having these issues??

    I’m going through the same problem. I’m listen to a certain song then it changes like someone is using my app. This is getting me really annoyed. I need help! Now I’m listening to Apple Music just to not go through this annoying thing of having the song I’m listening to changed all the time.

    Hey @serena ryan @wbrfilho apologies for the inconvenience.
    I have killed session in all devices where the account could be open and I sent you a password request link to your email. Please click on the link and enter a new password.
    If the problem persists, do not hesitate to contact me again.:relaxed:

    Hi Jaime, I’ve had strange activity on my account recently with songs coming up on my recent play which I don’t (or ever would!) listen to….I suspect my account has been hacked or something so I’ve reset my password. Is there any way of finding out where the account was used? I have no unknown devices appear on my account…...

    Hi Jaime, I already reset my password just before you had a chance to reply….I assume anyone who had access without my consent will now have to try to log in again? How do I find out who or where the account was accessed?

    I went to my just heard playlist and found a bunch of songs I’ve never listened to. Is it possible someone hacked into my deezer account? I found a phone I haven’t used in my linked devices and unlinked it and changed the password..but why wasn’t I notified if someone tried to log in from an unknown device and how can I even know if this happens again?

    Hi @nym23 I have made some adjustments in your account and also sent you a password reset link via email. Please click on that link, reset your password and login again
    That should fix the problem.
    Thanks!

    I have reset my password, unlinked my Google account, unlinked all devices, but when I log back in on the app on my mobile phone and try and listen to music I get the ‘The Deezer account is currently is listening mode on another device’ message (even if it can’t be, because no other device is linked?). Perhaps this is a software bug? Although I have got loads of random stuff in my Recently Played list, so suspect it’s been hacked. Has Deezer had a data breach? There seems to be a of lot of people this has happened to.

    Hey @MarthaMatthews I am sorry to hear that.
    I just did something extra which is to close session in any device where your account could be open. I also sent you and email with a password reset link. And in order to fix the problem I need you to click on that link, reset your password again and login to the account after that.
    Thanks :relaxed:
