Resolved: My account blocked.

LinkedIn - My account blocked.
Updated by user Mar 31, 2025

Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. My LinkedIn account was blocked, and I couldn't find customer service. Only with your assistance was I able to reach customer service and resolve the problem.

Original review Mar 15, 2025

I tried to log into my account, but it's been blocked. I tried to recover it, and there was an option to upload my ID to prove I'm the account owner, but for some reason, it didn't take me to the next step.

Now, when I try again, it says I've already done it, but nothing happens, and there's no response from customer service.

I checked the help center, but there's no option or way to get help for a blocked account. I decided to open a new account with the same email, but the system says the email is already in use.

Subject: Appeal for Account Restriction Review Daniel Kanja

Dear LinkedIn Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I recently discovered that my LinkedIn account has been restricted, and I would like to formally request a review of this action.

I value LinkedIn as a professional networking platform and have always strived to adhere to its policies and community guidelines.

If any of my activities inadvertently violated the platform's terms, I sincerely apologize. I kindly request clarification on the specific reason for the restriction so that I can address any concerns and ensure compliance moving forward.

If there was a misunderstanding, I am more than willing to make the necessary adjustments to align with LinkedIn's standards.

I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to regain access to my account, as it plays a crucial role in my professional connections and career growth.

Please let me know if any further information is needed to facilitate this review. I appreciate your time and consideration and look forward to your response.

Best regards,

Daniel Kanja

They make it impossible to deal with them. They will not answer any phone calls and they will not allow me to get in their system to ask any questions. I have asked their original inventor and owner on X if he can help, and he helps with nothing, it really is disheartening and has affected my business a great deal.

Trouble to access account

LinkedIn - Trouble to access account

My account was active before 7th April, and suddenly I started facing issues with logging in. I'm unable to log in to my LinkedIn account.

Before that, I got an email that someone tried to log in from a nearby location, and they asked me to change my password.

Then I changed it, and after 3-4 days, I just can't log in. I have a valid screenshot of the active account, which is attached below.

Lost access to my account.

LinkedIn - Lost access to my account.

Hi, I was asked to verify my account using my government ID, and every single time I proceed with clicking 'Verify Now', it gives me an error saying that the request has already been made. I haven't had access to my account or been able to look for new jobs for a week now.

I have tried contacting every department and submitting tickets with no response. I am extremely frustrated, as this impacts me every day.

I hope there is a way to fix this error so I can proceed with the verification and regain access to my account. This situation is a significant setback in my life, and I hope to hear back soon.

I am locked out with no explanation and locked out of verifying my identity with persona. Zero response from the multiple forms submitted for request and my profile is actively used for my business role. This is incredibly frustrating and I likely will have to open a brand new account.
