LinkedIn

I subscribed to LinkedIn Recruiter Lite for a full year, and was never able to make sense of it on my own. When I tried to request help, I found there is no way to talk to a person, and all I got for my trouble was a call from some outsourced business development firms from India who started drilling me with questions about how many hires would I be making in the next year. Good riddance!

The services rendered by linkedin are subject to communist propagandists reviews. If they dislike your beliefs they'll ban you indefinitely. Unfortunately it'll take a bit of time for people to figure out this is NOT an open networking tool for everyone but for the socialists and communists.

I have been trying to get a refund from them for over a week now! I signed up for the "free trial" of premium. They say they will send a reminder email 7 days before charging your card; yet I received no such email. The minute I received an email regarding the charges, I explained the above, requested a refund & cancelled the "free" subscription. Their error has also cost me, a disabled senior, additional costs in the form of an NSF fee from my bank!
Also, the majority of "job listings" turn out to be scammers. I've also noticed that every time I apply for a job that is posted on their site, the amount of spam emails I get are ridiculous!

None of this is acceptable! Do yourself a favour & stay far away from them!

What the $#*!. I tried to get into my LinkedIn Account but it's inaccessible. They deleted it because they saw some "suspicious" activity. Bunch of blockheads and $#*!s.

Regardless of the number of job applications an individual submits, they consistently encounter rejection. Despite possessing extensive experience and expertise, it seems that certain companies, albeit unintentionally, exhibit a preference for candidates who are not of Hispanic descent. This observation may raise concerns about discrimination, as it appears that platforms like LinkedIn consider one's name or Hispanic background as decisive factors in being overlooked or denied the opportunity for an interview or employment. This bias persists even when the individual possesses qualifications that surpass the requirements sought by the hiring company.

Difficult to edit profile, the profile settings are way too restrictive, and customer support is nonexistent. I maintain a free profile only because it's free and occasionally supplies interesting info about colleagues and friends. Otherwise I have zero use for this overrated app that is only getting worse.

They don't allow you to cancel a subscription from mobile, only on desktop. Got another $99.99 from me with their greedy subscription set up.

After years of using (on and off) LinkedIn (I don't like LI particularly... But working in the branch I work in, I need it), I decided to try their Premium.
The first month is free, isn't it?!

Well, LI Premium is OK. The training/courses are very nice. Some other additions too.
It is expensive, though. Therefore, I decided not to renew. Next, I got an offer I could not refuse. 50% discount for the following 2 months.

I accepted the offer on February 7th, 2024.
Last week, I needed to hibernate LI for a few days. Only to see, after activating again (two days later), that my Premium was gone.
When I tried to renew, I had to pay the full price. Starting immediately.

When I finally found where I could contact support I sent an email. Why do big companies almost make it impossible to find support contact information? And make a FAQ where your question never is mentioned?!

There was no reply to the online help request, no I received an"email that the amount will be refunded. From a "no reply" email address. I don't want a refund.
So, I responded to the case in my LI account.

Guess what?! You cannot hibernate with a Premium account, so your account automatically will pushed to a normal account when you hibernate.
And guess what?! They will not refund you until you complain after activating again. This is my conclusion. Thus, receiving a lot of money that they had do to nothing for.

I checked the page where you hibernate your LI account (screenshots attached).
There is no info that Premium will be cancelled when you hibernate LI.
There is info about this on another LI info page, yet not when hibernating.
This is purely to get themself covered by law, don't tell me about it. Have done the job.
But, in fact, it is scamming!

I requested the email address where I can file a complaint. No answer.

I accidentally purchased LinkedIn Premium. My mistake. Thirty days later I was charged $69.99 via the Apple ID on my iPhone. Because I did not receive a receipt for 5 days, I called my credit card company to cancel my card. They could have just cancelled my Premium subscription or sent an alert. Instead they back doored this purchase through my iPhone. Lesson learnt. I have removed my credit card from the "purchase and subscriptions" settings in my iPhone and cancelled this subscription ($70 per month are you kidding me?).

The worst company ever. No support and no respect to its members. They block accounts, ask for ID to verify and then do nothing. Account is not woking. No support, and most importantly no understanding form them (((((((((((((((((

Unfortunately if you aren't on Linkedin you will be judged - unfairly. I've applied for jobs only to have the hiring manager ask me why I'm not on Linkedin like it's some sort of professional sin. Most of the people on the site are egotistical narcissists who can't stop ranting and raving about how successful and talented they are. And the old line don't compare yourself to others? Well that is exactly the point of Linkedin, hell that is point of all social media and basically what is wrong with our world today.

Don't waste you time with poorly designed webs, there's better options out there, even Facebook sadly and Kijiji.

Something happened to my account that I was unaware of and I was blocked permanently. When I tried to contact LinkedIn to fix the problem There was no way to contact them. Absolutely piss poor customer service!

B2B Rocket has completely transformed our sales approach. The AI agents are incredibly efficient in identifying and engaging with potential leads, saving us valuable time and resources. Highly recommend giving it a try.!

I love visiting this site in terms of business because most times, it will connect you to your target audience making it easier to hook you up. It is just good for business match-making.

When using this site to look up professionals i couldn't find anywhere else, I was locked out. It asks you to solve puzzles to see if you are human but then it doesn't allow you in. It doesn't tell you why. At first i thought Linked in Was a Social Media thing, now i see it's more of a cult. If you're not linked in you are linked Out.

Very bad, they rip you off with very expensive premium fees, and you only get scammers all the time contacting you. Spent 9 years on linkedin, not even one single sale or client came. And also they block your account without any reason. Total tyrants and fake product, 0 results.

Three times now I have experienced jobs posted on LinkedIn that the original recruitment company had no idea were on there. Turns out Linkedin have been scrapping data from other recruitment sites & posting that data/positions on their platform. One of the positions they advertised (illegally) took 30 minutes for me to complete the application. A complete waste of my time as the position was never available, so I found out. It had been filled 6 months prior to me applying! Highly unethical & shameful Linkedin!

It seems LI have started to pay people to give good reviews, so time to redress the issue with another well deserved 1 star review.
This is a recalcitrant company who will refuse to delete your data and have the attitude of sue us!
See my earlier post on bait and dox for some insight as to how their poorly managed site operates today.
Absolutely no point wasting your time with these parasites!

You get job references without a resume based on your experience. It's also a great way to keep in touch with colleagues.

I don't really use LinkedIn except an occasional "congratulations " on there. I needed the Premium to send 1 message to someone. After that I cancelled it. They still charged me the $74. When I messaged them they simply said "Sorry your leaving Premium".

LinkedIn is instrumental for networking and professional development, providing a platform to connect with colleagues, explore job opportunities, and showcase skills and accomplishments. Whether I'm seeking career advice, recruiting talent, or expanding my professional network, LinkedIn offers valuable resources and insights to support my goals. I appreciate the community engagement and educational content, as well as the opportunity to stay informed about industry trends and news. LinkedIn has become an essential tool for advancing my career and professional growth

I was scammed seeking employment from 2 seperate people. They were both not even located in the United States they both used false titles and companies that went under or no longer exist. They want you to communicate via What's App and when reported to LinkedIn I was told they didn't find any issue with one person's false post for jib applicants.
I don't recommend LinkedIn unless you want to play games for a company or individual that doesn't exist.
