LinkedIn

This site is designed for professional networking. If you are good at professional networking and follow up, they will block you!! What good is the site? You can have a small professional networking group but if you are actually good at networking, this site is not for you. Especially if they are doing their job & can see all networking is professional & they still cancel you! Extremely disappointing professional social network!

I pay $6,000 a year for a single LinkedIn Recruiter seat. I travel between the West Coast and the Midwest and whenever I attempt to log into LinkedIn from a new location I get locked out of my account. I get locked out of my account constantly, despite using the correct 2-step authentication process they force on me. You can't file a support ticket unless you are logged into your account but I CAN'T LOG INTO MY ACCOUNT to get support. It is the most frustrating experience I have encountered. What exactly am I paying for???

To begin with, I had a paid subscription. They sent me an email saying I needed to "update my payment information" or I would lose my "premium" account... Well seeing I did not want to renew, I did not update this info... Somehow they got my new card info and charged me anyway... Now for their content "Script Nazis" If you post or make a comment on a post, that goes against "their agenda narrative", they will "censor" you or even close your account. This will be done even if you "pay" for a premium account... Nope, they do not refund. They have no clear policy, just a bunch of "word stuff", they will interpret the way, they wish. They censor the truth, when it does not fit their narrative... Hey, but you can open a profile be an "Out House CEO", Be Colonel Urinal leading a squad of Commode Commandos.

Updated on 09/28/2021: The censors are changed daily per the mood of LinkedIn that day. I closed my account for they allow fake profiles and trolls. You are bombarded with sexual harassment but they do nothing. Now a month later and their incompetents continues as I am still getting harassed by their messages daily. They should be charged with all the horrors they put on clients. Sued for premiums on services NEVER rendered. Just an absolutely nightmarish platform. Heed the warning for many actual professional platforms out there LinkedIn is more or less Facebook on steroids.

I have been a LinkedIn member for a long time with a huge network. I have changed my profile picture to my business ethics mascot. They disapproved and blocked my account. Don't waste your $$ on the premium level. I'm part of an investment group of five whom has established a portfolio of gold, silver, Gems, art, among other diversities in a global portfolio. We don't need LinkedIn anyway. Our group doesn't go outside the network.

My company signed up for premium recruitment services with LinkedIn for a year, paid quarterly. When the pandemic hit, I reached out to LinkedIn's billing team, comprising of Francis **, Keelan ** and May **, to restructure the last quarter of payment with LinkedIn. None of them showed any interest or sympathy to help a long-standing customer, while I received an email from LinkedIn saying: "Helping you navigate this time is a priority for us.“ When our business normalized and I wanted to settle our outstanding balance, the billing department ignored my messages and instead of working with me, they sent the outstanding invoice to a collection agency. Really bad experience.

I am a retired 83 year old who does not want or need LinkedIn learning. On May 8th I was offered free "Learning" but never took up this offer. Today I was told that LinkedIn Ireland had taken £24.98 from me by PayPal. Since my so called and unwanted "Free Trial " ended today I tried to contact LinkedIn Ireland to recover my money. As you might already know, however, all the contact details for LinkedIn do not work. I am surprised that LinkedIn has degenerated to the extent that it now resorts to scamming the elderly.

My account was restricted. I contacted customer support three separate times to get this fixed since I never broke the TOS or at least know why I was banned, but I don't think they even know why I was banned. First they told me I was banned because of a "misrepresented identity". After escalation since that never happened, I was then told it wasn't because of a misrepresented identity, but they still wouldn't tell me what part of the TOS I broke. Don't use LinkedIn, they can just remove anyone's accounts for any reason, even if they simply don't want them there.

This website advertises posting a job if employers are hiring. I post to hire a marketer for my medical clinic. They asked me about my credit card information and address, name, and much more. After 2 hours, I found they block my account and asked me to send them my Driver's license photo. I called them more than 5 times and sent the messages and no reply for days. I sent them my Driver's license photo because they have my Credit card and they charge me $21 per day and I can't even log in to the website to stop it. After I sent my driver's license they sent me an email and asking for my passport too. This is a very fishy act. This is fraud to force people to send them their government-issued documents and doesn't let people close their account and they keep the people credit card information and charge them daily for the account that they restricted them.

There is no Help Desk of ANY kind. Options they say they provide Never work - Ex. I don't want to get "Ads", and even though I say I don't want them and yet I am constantly having to block the posters. I'm daily getting deluged with ads that take me 30 minutes to clean out. I get the feeling from LinkedIn that they think they are doing me a 'favor' by sending me ads by people, organizations, etc. That I don't know and don't have any interest in. There is a LOT of political posting on the site and I have begun to realize that Linkedin is run by Democrats. If you post anything or follow anything that THEY don't agree with - you are branded as a "Hater". What are political ads and posting doing on that site anyway???? If you "connect" with someone, they assume automatically that you want to follow them.
