Linkedin Needs to be held ACCONTABLE

0 supporters

Linkedin has harassed and abused millions of account holders. The Linkedin supposed "AI" and other automated systems do NOT WORK - Almost all their fake customer service and fake tech support - are in India and all the problems Linkedin systems cause are ignored - Linkedin has a completely monopoly in the employement/network industry - and has millions of account holders are being coerced into uploading drivers license information and other information that are dangerous to give to strangers especially online - apparently there was a lawsuit against in which over 700 million account holders were injured by Linkedin

Recover or delete my account

Dear support,

Since I found no other option where to address my situation, I used this site and form for my little issue. Thank you in advance for forwarding this message.

I changed my phone back in summer and have since then no access to my own account.

Everytime I go through the email verification, receiving and passing the correct code, I am being forced to provide more data like my personal id.

Please do me the favor and let me proceed having my old business account, without the necessity to provide any further personal data.

I think redoing 20 times the email verification and receiving this message is in itself a verification enough.

There seem to be other ways to recover my account, but none of it works out for me.

-Through an Affidavit of Identity.

-Through a work email address. (don't work there anymore)

Thanks in advance.

I could not find a phone number that was working, so I used email. I canceled my page due to retirement, but I keep getting charged.

I need help getting the issue resolved.

I am still awaiting assistance in the matter. If anyone has experienced this problem before please share how to resolve and communicate with LinkedIn.

Frustrated customer

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Sep 08, 2025

I have not received a call from LinkedIn customer service. Still waiting for assistance to regain access to previous LinkedIn account.

Biggest frustration is when the automated prompts can't assist, and there is no one seemingly to speak with. I'm sure there is an acceptable response or solution to resolve this issue.

I've done the personsa verify several times and after I'm verified it still does not allow me to sign in. Several people have reached out to me regarding job opportunities, however Im unable to respond with a login.Frustrated customerFelita Robinson678 521-****

Original review Sep 06, 2025
I have a Linkedin personal and business/work account. In the year 2020, I was working for a company which required a Linkedin work account.

I called customer service and was assisted. Rep shared with me my old contacts with my personal Linkedin acct would still be available should I ever want to return to my personal account.
I no longer work for Immocure and I'm trying to regain access to my personal Linkedin accounts. I have followed all protocol for signing in with forgot password, forgot email, persona verification etc. I completed the verification process serveral times to no avail.

If I could speak with a live agent Im certain I can rectify the issue.

Speaking with a live agent is no longer an option, and there were no automated prompts to assist me. This made my experience very frustrating.

Hope and pray that somebody doesn’t want your information bad enough to bribe the company that stores all of you personal information.I lost all my contacts and order to get back online I had to create an entirely new account and start over

Original review Nov 22, 2025

I was kicked out of my LinkedIn account by a hacker, and LinkedIn won't let me back into my account. I have sent my ID to verify my identity, and they keep stating I'm not passing the ID verification process. They won't let me back into my account, yet the hackers have full access to my account.

LINKEDIN EMPLOYEES HARASSING ME

Updated by user Sep 04, 2025

LINKEDIN stealing account access and then extorting personal information that can be used for banking and financial transactions from linkedin account holders without account holders knowledge or consent - "linkedin" needs to be held accountable for they own systems

Updated by user Aug 28, 2025

THERE IS NO REALISTIC CHOICE ON COMPETITION BECAUSE OF LINKEDIN'S MONOPOLISTIC "BUSINESS" PRACTICES - LINKEDIN IS A MONOPOLY AND LINKEDIN PROVES IT 24 HOURS A DAY 7 DAYS A WEEK BY TREATING THEIR ACCOUNT HOLDERS LIKE GARBAGE

Original review Aug 18, 2025
PLEASE STOP LINKEDIN EMPLOYEES FROM HARASSING ME.
TO DATE ALL RESPONSES FROM LINKED HAVE EITHER BEEN AUTOMATED MESSAGES OR LINKED EMPLOYEES LYING AND HARASSING ME.
-My name is Howard Cornell. I went to City College San Francisco and was in the City College of San Francisco Linkedin Group before I started being harassed by Linkedin employees.
- The Linkedin Employees have been stalking me, abusing my account , abusing me and now trying to gain access to documentation in which the Linkedin employees can perpetrate even worse crime.

LINKEDIN EMPLOYEES ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT BE TRUSTED WITH SENSITIVE DOCUMENTATION IN WHICH THEY CAN PERPETRATE FRAUD.

-I have caught Linkedin employees abusing my account and lying many times.
- This started when I was harassed by linkedin employees or Linkedin automated system followed up by Linkedin employees in Oct 2023 when I simply tried to update my email address to my new email address XXXX@***.com.
- LINKEDIN HAS BEEN SENDING ME ALL MY LINKEDIN NOTIFICATIONS TO MY CORRECT MY EMAIL ADDRESS XXXX@***.com SINCE APPROXIMATELY MAY 2023 UP TO MAY 2025 WHEN AGAIN LINKED EMPLOYEES AGAIN STARTED ABUSING ME AND HARASSING ME.
--- IT STARTED by my either clicking a wrong button or simple EVIL CONDUCT on Linkedin's side It changed my password without my knowledge or consent ON MAY 27/28
- BELOW IS THE COPY OF THE DATE IN WHICH THEY SENT THE NOTIFICATION OF THE PASSWORD CHANGE TO MY CORRECT EMAIL ADDRESS THAT HAS BEEN ON THE ACCOUNT SINCE AROUND OCT 2023 XXXX@***.com
-Please put back my password so that I can log into my account.
-the linked employees mocked me and were no help
-There is no LEGITIMATE REASON reason I should have to supply government issued documents of which people - the very same LINKEDIN EMPLOYEES that have caused nothing but distress and harassment to me can then use and abuse and misuse the same and worse as what LINKEDIN EMPLOYEES are doing to me personally right now.
-I have tried to reset the account password to solve this situation
-It gives me some small "puzzle" then says it's sending me a code but the code never comes. One of the linkedin employees wrote me and said you or your automated system put back OR NEVER CORRECTLY CHANGED FROM my old email address @***.com Which I was told that apparently the "code" I get after I "successfully" complete the "puzzle" sends the code to THE WRONG EMAIL ADDRESS.
-Please stop this insanity and put back my password that was changed by an automated system or linkedin employee without my knowledge or consent.
- This is a copy of the "change of password" that was done to my account by Linkedin automated system or a linkedin employee

I asked for a call with a representative from LinkedIn because I need to talk to somebody about disconnecting my account from my former company so that they cannot access my information any longer. When I finally got to a place where I could request the call, nobody answered the call. Then I was disconnected.

Reporting Linkedin to the Better Business Bureau for the very same things that other people are speaking of. Complete fraud site claiming to help professionals seek opportunities.

I cannot log in into my account because of a restriction that is COMPLETELY not true. I cannot verify my identity because linkedin information keeps looping on my phone and computer without me doing anything. I cannot call linkedin beacuse there is NO phone number. I cannot email linkedin because it does not recognize my email but states in an email I received today that my payment source with automatically be billed on the 26th and thereafter until I cancel the subscription.

How do I cancel the subscription if I cannot access my account at all and cannot call anyone? SUPER PISSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LinkedIn is a fraud and a scam!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Jul 22, 2025

I DEMAND A REFUND, IMMEDIATELY. I'll go onto YELP, GOOGLE, and EVERY OTHER SITE to let them know exactly what happened to me.If customers have no way to contact you and you keep ignoring your customers but always find a way to keep charging them without them being able to cancel, then the fraud continues.

WHY DIDN'T YOU POST A 7 day notice that my free month was coming to an end? Why did you ignore me on so many occasions? Why don't you have a phone number so problems can be sorted out? I can't afford to just *** away money for no good reason.

My credit card company is issuing a credit to me. I'd suggest you not fight it or I'll go on every review site and post facts about how corrupt you are in regards to how you handled me as a customer. Did you see you had almost 14000 complaints? Does that mean anything to you?

Do you truly give a damn about helping professionals?

I will not be taken advantage of!! I hate companies that LIE.

Original review Jul 22, 2025
1. Got locked out more than once.
2.

Tried 25 times to change old email to new one, but it did not work, ever.
3. Contacted LinkedIn more than 20 times to help me resolve issues, but got ignored.
4. Total breach of contract.
5. Took premium free for one month.

Did not get a full month due to all the errors and issues on their site.
6. Contacted them on how to cancel premium, but nobody ever contacted me back.
7. Offered me half price, meaning half of their $53.00 price for a 2-month period if I continued, but breached that contract as well. They went ahead and billed my credit card against my wishes.
8.

Never got any help at all with these issues.
9. They obviously knew that they had lied. I never got a 7-day notice that free premium was coming to an end. That was a written promise.

They did this intentionally so they could charge me the full price.
10. All I ever got were false ads. Half of my postings disappeared.
11. They are clever; once you go on premium, you'll never find the chat button, nor will you be able to contact them, nor find a way to cancel the subscription.

Believe me, I've tried. The only way to do it is to call credit card company to reverse the charge and then change your credit card number!
12. Absolutely no way to contact them. No phone, no real person to talk with, only AI.
13.

The entire site is a bunch of BS.
14.

LinkedIn should be permanently shut down, entirely.
15. How does one cancel the subscription if nobody will contact me back or speak with me?

Original review May 06, 2025
Someone else is using my email address. I'm in the PI business and I go by Lilly Acres.

I never even got to use it, not even once. Yet, you allow someone to call themselves *** dumpster, like that's a real business. They allow others to steal others' IDs, and you block the real people. I've never ever used my email address on their site ever!

I'll just investigate LinkedIn and send them over to the FBI so they can go through every account they have! How many accounts have they allowed hackers to take over? Did you ask the person that's using my email address to verify themselves?

I know someone is using my identity on their site because in my phone data there have been Zoom calls. Go after the hackers!

Someone obtained your info and hacked your account. LinkedIn did not “let” them.

Do you think the hacker asked permission?

Now it is your LinkedIn account. If they have more of your info, your bank account, Amazon or social media accounts may be next.
