LinkedIn Persona Verification Fails and Blocks Account Access

March 25 9:33 PM71

My LinkedIn account has been restricted, and I am unable to log in from both my phone and computer. Since I could not successfully complete the Persona identity verification step, I currently have no access to my account at all. My account is a personal account, and it is registered with a @gmail.com email address.

Despite my access being blocked, I did not receive any warning email or notification explaining the issue, so I do not know the exact reason for the restriction. I have attempted the Persona identity verification process three times, but I still cannot log in. I believe the issue may be related to the fact that I accidentally entered an incomplete version of my real name on my profile, which may be preventing the system from verifying my identity.

I tried to reach LinkedIn support via email and help forms, but I could not find any effective communication channel to report my issue. At this point, I am completely locked out and unable to find any way to restore access to my account.

I request that LinkedIn manually review my Persona identity verification and confirm my identity through a human review process. Considering the minor name discrepancy on my profile, I ask that my identity be verified and my account access be restored.
