Streaming to an Amazon Echo dot - not supported

[Danny_75]

I have just got an Amazon Echo dot for Xmas, but when I ask it to play my Spotify playlist it says “Your Spotify Account does not support Straming to this device” ? 

Doers anyone know who to fix this. I can play via the app from my phone as it is displayed as a device, but I can’t tell it to play a certain song or list ? I have a Premium Spotify account and am in the UK ?

I too have this problem, im trying to figure out how to get my echo dot to stream music from spotify without my phone connected to it via Bluetooth. I just wanna be able to play music in the background and be able to use my speakers on my phone for other things example. “Youtube” 

please help this is frustrating
