When you initiate the Spotify account deletion process, you are given 7 days by Spotify to restore the account. A link that will allow you to restore your Spotify account will be sent to your email account.
This link will only be valid for 7 days after that you won’t be able to recover your account. Simply click on this link to recover your Spotify account.
How To Restore The Account If It Has Been More Than 7 Days
Spotify gives you a 7-day window to restore your Spotify account. Within 7 days, all you have to do is log back into your Spotify account using the link provided in your email. Failing to do so in 7 days will lead to the link expiring which will result in your Spotify account getting deleted permanently.
If 7 days have gone by already then you won’t be able to recover your Spotify account any longer. You can sign up again as Spotify does give you an option to signup using the same email address after 14 days. However, your data like music liked & playlist won’t be restored.

My Spotify Account Got Deleted Itself
Not every time a user intends to delete his or her account. Sometimes while tinkering with settings like disconnecting your Facebook account from your Spotify account can result in losing access to your account.
If you have lost access to your Spotify account after disconnecting your Facebook account then follow the steps given below.
- Go to the Spotify login page https://accounts.spotify.com/en/login/

- Type the email address used by your Facebook account which you had linked with your Spotify account.
- An email will be sent to you with the link to set a password for your account.
- After setting the password, log in to Spotify using the email & newly set password.
However, if your account got closed due to some other reason then you will need to contact support. There are three ways to contact support.
The first one is by the Twitter page SpotifyCares. Type in your email id from which account was registered along with the device/OS & nature of the issue; a support executive will revert back to you soon.
While you wait to hear back, I would recommend checking the Spotify Community page as you will find a lot of useful community threads. If you are someone who has a very specific problem then there are a lot of savvy Spotify Legends ready to help you there.
The last option will be to reach out to Spotify Customer Support. Initially, a bot will answer all of your queries and if the bot gets stuck it will be replaced by a human customer support executive.

Another major reason your Spotify account can be deleted is because of payment getting canceled. If you reverse your Spotify premium payment through the bank then Spotify can delete your account.
If you have not violated any of the other policies set by Spotify then I would recommend contacting Spotify Support.
