How do you get LinkedIn help? What do you do if you have a problem? Where do you turn if you have been hacked? Is there a human to help? Is there a customer service department?
Problems are bound to occur on a platform of over 756 million users.
If you are on Twitter, you can direct message @LinkedInHelp
You can also tap into a new LinkedIn feature that I learned about from Kevin D. Turner, from Texas, who has cleverly customized his LinkedIn URL as “president.” https://www.linkedin.com/in/president/
Kevin must have been an early adopter to snag that URL!
Nonetheless, Kevin shared a new LinkedIn feature to contact LinkedIn to set up a help case with six basic steps.
- You will provide an alternate email to the one you have on file
- The type of issue you can report includes 28 choices
- There are a dozen choices of apps or sites
- There are nine choices of devices
- The subject
- Your question

This LinkedIn Help feature also allows you to create an attachment if you so desire. This attachment feature is convenient if you get locked out of your account, you will need to provide a copy of your passport and driver’s license to prove that you are you!
