I know I should just be quiet, but curiosity killed the cat!

I know I should just be quiet, but curiosity killed the cat!

I have the Spotify free version and I haven't heard any ads for a few days. Is that part of the issue they're having? I know I should just enjoy it but it's tripping me out.

With Spotify free for mobile you don't get ads; however you can only listen in 'shuffle' mode and with 'suggested' songs thrown in. Please see the thread Subscription Comparison Chart for a comparison of the different subscription levels Spotify offer.

I was getting ads the first few days?

My friend checked hers and when she listens on her phone, she gets ads. ?

Yeah, I'm not getting any. I guess I'm just nervous that I might have inadvertently signed up for some free trial or something, but I didn't give my credit card number or anything, so I shouldn't be so freaked.

I didn't think there were ads on the mobile version... I knew it was coming. Guess it's here now 🙂

I should check my 'free' profile a bit more often 🙂

OK, it says this:

Your pre-paid Premium will end on 2015-04-02. Subscribe to keep the tunes flowing, no need to re-credit your account every month.

 

What is pre-paid Premium? Some kind of temporary service they give you to encourage you to subscribe?

Wow, people complaining they're not getting ads. This world is getting messed up

It could be from your Network Provider or a trial subscription. As long as you dont setup payment details you're all good and will move onto the free version once the subscription has expired.
