Korea is now 'non-spotify' country?

[1176990104]

So I've been back and forth between uk, singapore and korea

I was using spotify in korea last year til yesterday just fine.

However, today spotify has notified me that it is no longer available because my coutry doesn't match my profile

I tried to change my country setting in my profile, I couldn't so I changed my **bleep**ing facebook profile and I still coudn't change my country setting.

So I even deciede to put my korean credic card info and while i'm at it, I decided to go preminum since there's promotion going on right now.

and I got this message

Apparently spotify has decided that korea is "non-spotify country" despite the fact that It was not in the past.

I find this incredibly unreasonable and frustating

If spotify has not been available in kroea in the past, I would understand I'd find other srvice that is aviailable all around the world

but since I was using it fine past two months and also for more than 5 months last year,  this sudden change seem very unfair.

If spotify has decided that korea is now "non-spotify country" It would be more visible so people can quickly switch to tial or smt

The fact that I can no longer use spotify makes me so angry and more than that the fact that i cannot even view my library just because I'm in Korea makes me feel descriminiated. 

Please do reply.

Hey @1176990104!

Thanks for bringing this up and welcome to the Community.

We're sorry you feel that way, but we can see where you're coming from.

We're not yet in Korea, but we're launching in new countries as often as possible. You can sign up here to be the first one to hear.

With Spotify Premium you can listen to your tunes from anywhere in the world, as long as you have access to the internet. If your account went back to Free while you were still in Korea, you might not be able to upgrade until you go back to the UK or Singapore.
