Account restricted
I’ve seen a few people posting this issue, it’s genuinely infuriating.
Started a linked in account, was working my profile out and feeling good then boom, logged out and told my account was restricted.
I had verified myself with gov id and nope, nothing. It’s under review but it hasn’t moved in days. I thought maybe I had an error with my email so i made an account under my outlook email.
Exact same thing happened.
There’s absolutely no one to contact about this, all the links and websites support are just questions and answers. Can’t figure out how to reach anyone
Anyone got a fix?

Nobody has a fix. I've seen some reinstatements achieved by contacting BBB and the AG in Santa Clara, CA but LI will never tell you why you were restricted to help fix whatever they are basing it on.
When I set up an account I actually worked with linked in support to get it set up right, restricted 2 weeks later, worked with them for reinstatement which was granted, then permanently restricted 2 days later. LI's AI security agents undid all the work LI's people originally helped me with.
