Still receiving ads when monthly subscription charged to credit card.

Hi @Sparky1665 I checked your account and it appears that there was a communication error between the Apple billing system and our system. The error seems to have been resolved and your subscription has returned to your account.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks for posting to community! 🎧

I am also still getting ads and I have a subscription 

[AdamPandora]

@Davisn2007 Our support team has taken a look and have informed me that the Pandora account your community profile is registered with has never been signed up for any subscription.

If you signed up for a subscription, then it is possible you did so on a Pandora account registered under a different email address.

I recommend signing out of Pandora on your device, and then signing back in using the email address the upgraded account is registered under.

In the meantime, our support team mentioned they will also be sending you a separate message via email to help make sure this gets resolved.

Keep an eye out for their message.

Thanks for being a part of the community!

I have logged out and back in. I have waited a few days. I’m paying the fee but still get ads and only a few skips. Very frustrating.  Can someone help please?

Hey there, @Zekemidas. 👋

I moved your post over to the Subscription space to keep the community neat and organized. 

I checked in with our User Support team about your issue, and they were able to restore your subscription through Apple back to your Pandora account. The error seems to have been resolved. Sorry for any trouble this has caused.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to reply directly to this post, and I'll do my best to help.

Thanks so much for posting on the community! 🎹

Hi, any suggestions are appreciated. A friend sent a link to play an entry. I downloaded and installed the app, enrolled and paid for a Plus subscription with one free month via my iPhone but the paid subscription is not reflected in my Pandora account. Any insight or suggestions greatly appreciated. Below is the email received of my Pandora subscription purchase from Apple. 

You’ve purchased the following subscription with a 1‑month free trial:
	Subscription   Pandora Plus App   Pandora: Music & Podcasts Content Provider   Pandora Media, Inc. Date of Purchase   Feb 3, 2020 Introductory Offer   Free for 1 month Subscription Price   $4.99/month starting Mar 3, 2020

@Chicago_cypher1 Since you upgraded through the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch app, you should be able to use the following steps to get your subscription activated and returned to your account:

1. Start by opening the Pandora app on your iOS device, and going to the Profile tab.
2. Select Upgrade.
3. Scroll to the very bottom of the screen and tap Retrieve Your Subscription. You may need to enter your iTunes password to confirm.

This should reapply your subscription to your account.

If this doesn't work, let me know and I can forward you over to our User Support team so they can further assist.
