Why am I hearing ads for an area I do not live in? I see no way to tell Pandora I do not live there anymore.
mod edit: changing title for clarity
Hi @scottywatty Generally, we target ads based on your registration information to provide more relevant advertisements. If you are receiving ads that aren't relevant to your current location, you might want to double-check the zip code registered on your Pandora account.
From a computer, you can change all your account information (including email, password and zip code) by visiting the Pandora website and signing in.
Next, click the icon (initial or picture) in the top right corner of the page and select Settings. Under Account you can make any necessary changes to your registration information, including your zip code.
Be sure to save your changes when you're done, and enter your password to confirm.
You can also find more info on our help page here.

I moved from another state and am still hearing commercials for that state instead of where I now live. How do I fix that? I DO NOT want to hear any adds from my previous state.
I wouldn't mind local ads, as I get to know my new surroundings.
Thank you.

Why are the ads coming out of Dallas when I’ve been in Sarasota for at least 4 years?

Not completely true. I changed my account to show that I live in SC now. All was good for a time, But now I am getting ads for Denver CO. And I have NEVER EVER lived there. So, again, not always true.
@pouncez The next time this happens can you please reply back to this thread with:
Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝
I have always lived in the same city since I created my account. Now suddenly I am getting ads from another state hundreds of miles away. My profile has my correct zip code.
@gaucho91 To clarify, are these ads always from the same state?
Additionally, can you please grab a screenshot of the next out of state ad that plays on your account, and send it in a reply to this message?
Thanks for working with me on this. 🤝
Yes they are always from Georgia. I am in Delaware. I will work on getting a screen grab.
Sounds good, @gaucho91.
I will keep an eye out for your message.
I moved from TN to FL and it still says commercials associated with the town I moved from in TN. How do I change it to where I live in Fl? Thanks for your help.

The links provided by pandora to change information in your accout do not work. The links bring up a page that is selling subscriptions with no way to get to my account.
Hey pandora, do not let the marketing department design your website! Keep whats best for the users in mind and foremost.

If you are seeing a screen showing our various subscription options, then that means you are on the wrong page.

I do not mind receiving advertising but I no longer live in the Pacific Northwest.
Now I live in the upper Peninsula in Michigan hence lot of the advertising which reaches me is no longer pertinent.
If I am to receive advertising I would prefer it to be of a local nature. My area code is now 906
