Playlist adds not followed through

I have noticed a pattern with some of your playlist curators. I get a notification that that my submission has been approved, but the playlist curator never adds me to the playlist. This happens quite frequently. In fact, here are my stats so far:

  • I have been approved for 68 playlists total (including a few premium)

  • I have actually added to 49 playlists.

19 playlists never added me. This translates to roughly 28% have not added me. This is deceptive, but I think this occurs because the system allows it, and curators get away with it. Can you add a step to make sure that the curator adds to a playlist when they accept? If not then you should not display “Accepted”. Instead add a new display like “Accepted - waiting to be added” or add final stage “Added” after “Accepted”. The problem is I don’t want to waste my credits on curators that falsely accept songs but don’t add them - I want to avoid those and would like reporting on curators that abuse your system.

As an example this happened on this playlist recently:

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1A9N8kBvBjpIBlWs5Y0A9r

Our song “High Waves” was accepted but not added.

Can I get those credits back for the missing accepted playlist so I can use them for other playlists?
