This is very annoying. Apparently Pandora has more Spanish speaking listeners in my area than English. I get. Orr Spanish ads than English. 

that balcony about the ad operations team working on a solution. I have a solution - cut down the number of Spanish speaking ads.

Same issue here.  Would recommend a toggle in profile so Language preference could be chosen.

@RickNubbz Our ad operations team is aware of your feedback and they are working hard to improve how our Spanish ads are delivered.

The next time a Spanish ad plays on your account, please send over:

  • a screenshot of the Spanish ad
  • the date and time that ad played on your account
  • the name of the station or podcast you were listening to when that Spanish ad played

Thank you for your patience in the meantime, and thanks for listening to Pandora. :pandora:

Same issue here. Was wondering the same, i have never even listened to a single spanish station on my account so this makes no sense.

Why is this listed as a “solution” when the short version of what you said is “deal with it until we decide it’s important enough to fix?”

This. This is why people use adblockers. I don't even understand what they're trying to sell me lol

I have a 'ski' at the end of my username. Why not send me ads in Polish?
Not that I would understand them, but I don't understand the Spanish ads either!
Please fix.

I’m a bit confused as to why the commercials aren’t more directed towards the customer base. Listening to country music and hearing Spanish commercials seems as though I’m being told Pandora doesn’t want me to listen any longer.

where is the opt-out of Spanish ads?  My default language is set to English.  Please fix ASAP, before I opt-out of Pandora.

I came here looking for a way to complain about the same thing. Ever time a Spanish speaking ad comes on, I remove ear bud. Then hours later I remember I took it out. When I go back the same as is playing, I change the channel every time. 

should be a setting somewhere for people to turn it on or turn it off.

THIS is not a solution. THIS is an excuse. THIS is ripe with age, as its now over 90 days old!!

READ ME!!!  I think I found a solution/work around to fix this issue.  I changed my zip code to a different city and state. No more Spanish ads!!  I drove all the way from Florida back to New York over 18 hours of listening without one Spanish advertisement. I did get a local grocery store ad for Kroger’s which was in that local area.  It’s been 3 days, so far so good, big shout out to Bluffton, SC!
