Note that I wrote this article long before the emergence of LinkedIn automation tools, so if you are using those tools, your issues fall into the same boat as to what I originally wrote about.

For the sake of transparency, I am not in any way related to LinkedIn, and I will tell them what I tell you: Only LinkedIn Customer Service can remove any restrictions placed on your account. In fact, I often get emails from readers of this blog demanding that I give them access back to their LinkedIn account and remove all restrictions. You’re not alone! A look through the comments of this post will give you an idea as to the issues that others like you are facing.
