My Question or Issue

I was notified by Spotify yesterday (01/03/2020) that my payment was unable to be processed. My billing date is the 3rd of the month. My bank account had been over drafted due to a billing mistake by my insurance company, so that's why my card was unable to be charged. Spotify asked me to update my payment info. I updated the info today - which was just retyping in the exact same card info that had been on file - and now I do not have my Hulu subscription anymore. As I mentioned already, the card is the exact same one I had been using. I already can't access Hulu. Obviously this issue has not been fixed for everyone 😞

Hey @krissu_666, thanks for reaching out to the Community!

I'm sorry to hear this, and you're not the only one with this issue.

Unfortunately, since the Premium + Hulu bundle is over, there isn't a way to get Hulu added back to your account.

If you're a college student, you can sign up for Premium Student and get access to Hulu and SHOWTIME. More details here.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply, but I posted this topic according to Peter's comments in this older thread

https://community.spotify.com/t5/Subscriptions/Premium-with-Hulu-not-working/td-p/4729290

where he specifically says this should be fixed for everyone and if it's not, to post a new thread topic.

Apparently this issue should be resolved and I should be able to get my Hulu subscription back.

Hey there @krissu_666,

Thanks for starting a new thread regarding @Peter's reply. 

Can you please try lining your accounts on https://signup.hulu.com/spotify? Let us know if you get an error message and send us a screenshot if so.

Keep us posted, thanks!

This is the error message I got. My Spotify receipts instantly went from "Spotify Premium with Hulu" to "Spotify Premium" when I 'updated' (card didn't change) my card number.

Hey, I am having this same problem too! I updated my payment details, and now the link between my spotify and hulu seems to be broken. 

Help!

This issue has been sorted out since I contacted Spotify Customer Service. They provided me with a link and code to reactivate Hulu on my account. I suggest anyone with this issue contact customer service as well! ✌️
