Linkedin Premium Student Offer

The LinkedIn Premium benefit is delivered by activation email for eligible Microsoft 365 student-promotion purchases, so allow up to seven days after activation and contact Microsoft Support if the email still does not arrive.^1^

Check the offer status and email

1. Sign in to Microsoft account → Services & subscriptions using the personal Microsoft account used to obtain the student offer.
2. Confirm that the qualifying Microsoft 365 student subscription appears as Active. A general Microsoft 365 Education account supplied by a school does not, by itself, confirm enrollment in the separate LinkedIn promotion.^2^
3. Using a desktop browser, open the mailbox used during purchase or verification and search for:
   • LinkedIn
   • Premium
   • Microsoft
   • Career
4. Check Inbox, Junk/Spam, Promotions, and Other. In a closely matching case, the activation message was visible through desktop webmail even though it did not appear in the phone’s Gmail app.^3^
5. If fewer than seven days have passed, wait until the seven-day delivery period ends.^4^

If more than seven days have passed

Contact Microsoft Support at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/home/contact:

1. Sign in with the personal Microsoft account used for the offer.
2. Enter LinkedIn Premium not received.
3. Select Get help → Contact Support.
4. Choose Microsoft 365 and Office → Subscription/Billing.
5. Select chat or request a callback.
6. Provide:
   • Order ID and purchase date
   • Date student verification was completed
   • Confirmation that Microsoft 365 is active
   • Confirmation that no LinkedIn activation email arrived

Support can check whether the benefit was generated, resend the activation link, or escalate a provisioning failure.^5^

If the subscription is not listed as active or you did not enroll through the specific Microsoft 365 student promotion, ask Support to verify eligibility against the promotion terms applicable to your country and purchase date; the available information does not establish those details for your account.
