Thanks Viveka! I was afraid of deleting my current account. This helped. Do you recommend opening or keeping open a business account as well as a personal profile?

Would you lose linkedin certificates you've got in the account you don't need anymore

This video was very useful to delete the account which I no longer use and have forgottenn the password.
Thank you Vengreso :)

Thanks for this post. Linkedin removed the contact us feature. I spent hours trying to figure out how to send an email directly to Linkedin Support

Hi Viveka, I have a duplicate profile and want to get rid of one of them. I want to get rid of my 'bad' profile (the one that doesn't have my photo). If I go to close it, how can I be sure that I'm not closing my GOOD profile? thanks...Nick

Thanks for the help! Do you happen to know how long the merger takes? I just completed the steps and did not see the change immediately happen.

This was by far the most helpful video for what I needed, thanks Viveka!

Thanks. I was searching for information on how to delete an account. I have 2. The information you gave will cut my work in half and put the best of both accounts into 1.

Thanks so much Viveka! This is super helpful.

[amirnaghibi]

Thanks for the information,
What happens to the learning certificates and badges I have earned in the account I am going to merge and close?

Thank you Viveka. I still have a question. I ended up having two accounts. I had one that I started way back in 2012 or so. I created one more recently and that is when I discovered I still had another. After figuring out my login for the old one, I want to merge them. Does the merging only merge the connections or does it also merge the profiles? My older account is associated with an email I rarely use anymore but I'm assuming I can rectify that once I delete one.

Hey Viveka, I'm not sure if this applies to business accounts as well but what about the scenario where company A buys out company B and wants to merge the "bad" company B account into the company A account... does it work the same way?

[BLAZINGSTRDANK]

I have a university LinkedIn and like it because I set it up to look professional. I need to merge it with my personal email. My question is will the merged account keep all my info from my university account?

[sumaof]

Hi Viveka, do you know how to retrieve a deleted account? How would I be able to reactivate it if possible?

[nappyscribe]

I have forgotten all information having to do with my old linked in account. Now what do I do?

[kingash]

When the connections merge to the account I am keeping does LinkedIn send a connection request to the merged connections or do they automatically become a connection?

[anilkumar-vlmz]

hi,
my LinkedIn account was restricted. How can i close that account.

[dynmontalban]

I followed your instruction but the "SUBMIT" button doesn't seem to work. It's graded out and not clickable. I would really appreciate if you can help me delete my duplicate account on LinkedIn that I no longer have access to. Thanks
