The following are issues that customers reported to GetHuman about LinkedIn customer service, archive #153. It includes a selection of 20 issue(s) reported June 4, 2023 onward. If you have a similar customer service issue, this page will help you find current, up-to-date answers and solutions too.
When Doris Campagna continues to mention Terry, Terry feels compelled to retaliate. Doris's inability to stop may indicate underlying issues such as obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a condition characterized by unwanted obsessions and repetitive behaviors. To address this situation, Doris should acknowledge that distancing herself from Terry could be a gradual process. She doesn't have to provide lengthy explanations and could choose to communicate in public venues. Blocking Terry on social media, avoiding arguments, and clearly restating boundaries are recommended. Writing a letter or creating physical distance instead of complete separation are also potential strategies to consider.

On May 31st afternoon, my account was restricted, and I am unable to log in. I use this account for job searches and learning on LinkedIn. I have around 8k connections that I have lost access to and I am feeling very upset. I have received a verification email with a screenshot attached, but I am still unable to recover my account. I have been trying to get help since May 31st, but I have not received any support. I cannot verify my identity due to an issue, and I am worried about the account getting permanently deleted in 8 days according to LinkedIn's policy. I have sent multiple emails but have not received any responses. Please, can someone help me with this issue and recover my account?

I terminated my account two months ago. I followed the steps on the support page to cancel it, and the system confirmed the cancellation. However, I was charged $40 this month and $20 last month, which is unacceptable. I joined this app hoping it would assist me in finding a job as I am currently unemployed and experiencing homelessness. Since it did not help, I cancelled my subscription. Discovering that money was deducted from my account by a service I no longer use is distressing. Kindly process a refund promptly. The funds are crucial for securing a hotel for the night as I am facing challenging circumstances. This unexpected deduction is impacting my ability to cover immediate expenses.

Hello, I'm Raul Sanz and I'm encountering difficulties logging into my LinkedIn account. I received an email stating my account has been permanently restricted, although I have not engaged in any improper behavior. My name is Raul Sanz, not Vince Lee. It appears that something suspicious has happened with my account ([redacted]). I am perplexed as to why my account has been accused of illegal activities when I have done nothing wrong. I have been unable to access my account for a few days now. On May 27th, I interacted with an individual named Johannes Grunigen who appeared to be attempting to deceive me. I have captured screenshots of our conversation which I can provide as evidence. I believe he may have compromised my account and password by directing me to a website through a link. I would appreciate guidance on the necessary steps to regain access to my account. I have supporting documents to verify my identity as Raul Sanz. Thank you for your assistance. Raul Sanz

Hi there,
I have been receiving multiple emails from your end requesting verification for a new device. These emails are being sent to my late husband's email address ([redacted]), who passed away about a year ago. I recently discovered he had a LinkedIn account, which I was unaware of. Unfortunately, my computer was subjected to a serious hack, and it appears that someone, purportedly from Fremont, CA, is attempting to gain unauthorized access to his account. Despite my efforts to change the password, I was unsuccessful as the online form indicates there is no account associated with the email address I received these emails on. I also attempted other email variations he might have used such as ~.gmail.com and ~googlemail.com, but encountered the same response of no account found. His full name was Horst-Bernd Ruiken, and I hope this information aids in locating the account. Could you please deactivate his membership and close the account permanently? I would appreciate confirmation once this has been completed. Thank you for your assistance. Best regards, Ulrike Genz

Hello, my name is Thorsten Feige.
LinkedIn locked my account 4 days ago. The lock has not been lifted even though I have verified myself twice with valid ID. I have not received any reasons for the account suspension yet.
Today, LinkedIn also informed me that they have deleted my profile picture, suspecting it to be fake. However, this photo is correct. It is used on LinkedIn, Facebook, my Google account, and my website www.finanzmentor1.de. It is the same everywhere to create a consistent recognition effect.
Since I cannot log in, I cannot contact LinkedIn either. The suspension is harmful to both me and my company, Finanzmentor1.de, but also harms the public relations of the Berlin Advisory Service e.V., where I work as an administrator. There has been a recent change in the board of directors here, which I cannot communicate due to my suspension. LinkedIn is harming a non-profit organization.

I sought assistance, but unfortunately, the conversation was cut short before I could fully explain my issue to Pearl. My husband, who passed away a year ago, has been receiving LinkedIn verification emails on his account, and my attempts to access it due to suspected hacking have been futile. I kindly requested for his account to be permanently closed. However, the discussion was ended abruptly, and I did not get the chance to communicate with a specialist to resolve the matter.

I received a message this morning indicating that my LinkedIn account had been temporarily restricted for security reasons. Upon seeing the message, I promptly submitted my driver's license as requested. I urgently need access to my account today as I have job applications pending that require a LinkedIn profile.
Message received:
"Access to your account has been temporarily restricted. This action was taken to protect your account due to potential unauthorized activity or policy violations. To restore access, please submit a government-issued ID for identity verification purposes. Once your identity is confirmed, your ID information will be deleted. Following the review process, a customer support representative will contact you to provide more information and update you on the status of the access restriction."
I kindly ask for assistance in expediting this process so I can regain access to my account promptly.

My account seems to have vanished into thin air. It contained all my important job details like resumes, work experience, skills, and past job applications. I had a network of connections with other users that has now disappeared. I believe the account was linked to an old ID and password from around [redacted] or perhaps even earlier. Due to a recent hacking incident, I no longer have access to my Gmail account and had to shift to a new email address, [redacted] It's all quite perplexing, and I hope for a resolution soon. In the meantime, I've created a new LinkedIn account and am hopeful that my old and new profiles can somehow be merged.
