Netherlands: Can't pay for student discount

NEDERLANDS HIERONDER

Help, I want to use the student discount, but I don't have a creditcard. I can only pay with iDeal. I can pay for Premium and more, but student discount only offer the option to pay with creditcard. The customer service of Spotify suck badly. I there anyhere here who can help me? It shouldn't be this hard to solve a problem for a stream used worldwide...

Help, ik wil graag gebruik maken van de studentenkorting, maar ik kan alleen met creditcard betalen. Andere abonnementen kan ik wel betalen met iDeal, maar deze niet. Ik kan Spotify zelf niet bereiken om het probleem voor te leggen, wat belachelijk is! Voor een stream die wereldwijd wordt gebruikt zou het niet zo moeilijk moeten zijn om een probleem op te lossen.

Hey @kimmmmmd6,

Unfortunately, you can only subscribe to the Student Discount using the available payment methods. If the payment method you’d like to use isn’t being offered to you on the payment page, then it’s most likely not available at the moment.

Oh 😞 It was highly promoted here.. all my friends are looking for an solution as well. People on Facebook are also asking question. How weird that you can only pay with creditcard for the student discount. If I can pay for Premium with iDeal, it should also be possible for the student discount I think. Spotify is not communicating with us about this at all. Thank you for taking the time to reply!

they just want to make more money, like you said it would be no problem for spotify to make ideal available since it's also available for the normal premium offer.
