Washing machine won't spin

Remove the drain hose and lower it into a bucket. It has to be lower than the water level and pump.

Check the motor brushes and belt.

Suspect bearings. With door open wiggle the top of the silver drum If it moves up and down inside the tub, replace the bearings

the belt has come off or broken on the back take lid or back panel off and have a look

hi there.
If the washer won't drain or spin there might be a clogged pump or hose. It's common for small socks or other small clothing items to get into the water drain system and clog the hose leading to the pump or the pump itself. Remove the hoses from the pump in order to remove the article of clothing.16 Mar 2014

Washing machine will fill with water but won spin Google Search

brushes need replacing in motor. Usually cheap enough to buy and do yourself.

Normally I would think that the problem is with the drain system (faulty pump or clogged lines), but you told me that also "When the washing machine is not bein.g used the drum slowly starts to fill with water!!" therefor I think it can be a dafective inlet valve or a faulty control assembly.
In either case, you will need a technician to fix this.
