It is unknown how long the service outage will continue or what has caused the problem. However, its official Twitter account that monitors its service status has confirmed there is an issue.Ī tweet from the account read: "Something’s not quite right, and we’re looking into it. Spotify has not clarified what the issue with its service is. Spotify is available for multiple platforms including Windows, OS X and Linux as well as iPhone, iPad, Android, Blackberry and Windows Phone. Making matters work, the option to reset their password is also unavailable. Spotify uses a freemium model, offering a basic service free of charge while enticing customers to upgrade to a paid subscription plan that includes mobile applications and advertising free stream. Users have found that when they try to listen to some music they have been logged out of their Spotify account and their password no longer works.

The issue is understood to have begun shortly after 6pm today (March 8). Music streaming service Spotify is reportedly down with thousands of users left unable to log on to the platform.
