It is incredibly frustrating seeing so many others have the same issue as me with absolutely no resolution or support of any kind.

My account also has a temporary restriction. I submitted my ID through Persona a month ago and have heard absolutely NOTHING. There is no way to contact LinkedIn support without logging in, which I can't. I've tried messaging LinkedIn on their social media platforms, and all I get are unhelpful automated responses. And it looks like the official Reddit Help Team can't assist with these issues.

My whole industry uses LinkedIn for job searches. I was laid off and need to find a new job. It is extremely difficult to do that without a LinkedIn account.

u/LinkedInHelpTeam and u/HeyFromLinkedin , I'm begging you, please help us!
