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??

    Hi @i_Helen_i I have done the same maintenance in your account I did with other users with the same issue. Please check your email and click on the password reset link I sent you. Create a new password for your account and login again. 
    That should help.
    Thanks :)

    Mine keeps telling me another account is using it and only one at a time can but then I check devices and it’s only one linked.

    I’ve started getting the “hmm...someone else must be listening” error today.  Is there really someone else listening as I only see one device linked to the account and don’t play off of anything other than my iPad.  

    1. How do I find out if someone has really hacked into my account?
    2. if not, then what’s causing this and what is the fix?

    Hello ,

     

    Good Day,  i would like to know if this suddenly pausing in my account while im playing is a bug or there is actually using my account. i try to check if there is something like all history of my browser and phone logins. Is using VPN can also cause issues or my account was compromised?

     

    I also change my password recently and try to fix the issue but its still there.

    Can you help please,

    Thanks,

    Same issue for me.  Is there any way to contact support?  I updated my password on Deezer and the associated email account.  So far the issue isn’t back yet.  Cautiously optimistic.

    I got exactly the same problem. It’s clearly impossible to listen some music as it stops every minute …

    i try to do what you said: 

    • check my devices and I have only my phone connected 
    • and chose a new password.

    the problem is still here …. 

    can you help me fix that one ? 
    many thanks

    Hi @Rcoburn I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing problems with your account.
    I have closed session in all devices where the app could have been opened and also sent you a password reset link via email. Please click on that link, reset your password and login again.
    That should work.
    Apologies for the inconvenience
