Why LinkedIn Premium Makes It Hard to Cancel
LinkedIn buries cancellation in the Premium Subscription Settings page. The 'cancel' link is on a separate page from where you normally manage your account. They also push pause-instead, downgrade alternatives, and on the cancel-confirmation page list everything you'll lose to make you reconsider.
What Happens After You Cancel
Your LinkedIn account, connections, posts, recommendations, and profile remain unchanged. You lose Premium-only features at the end of the billing period: InMail credits don't carry over (use them before cancelling), advanced search filters revert to free tier, 'Who's Viewed Your Profile' becomes limited to 5 results, and Career insights / Learning content lock.
Can You Get a Refund?
LinkedIn doesn't pro-rate. You keep Premium through end of period. For Sales Navigator and other business tiers, refund policies vary — contact LinkedIn billing support via the Help Center.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will my LinkedIn profile disappear if I cancel Premium?
No. Your profile, connections, posts, endorsements, and recommendations all stay. Only Premium-only features (InMail, advanced filters, Learning, profile insights) end.
Should I use my InMail credits before cancelling?
Yes. Unused InMail credits expire at the end of the billing period — they don't refund or carry over. If you have 5+ credits and people you want to message, send them before cancelling.
How do I cancel LinkedIn Sales Navigator vs Premium Career?
Same flow — linkedin.com/premium/manage. The exact tier (Career / Business / Sales Navigator / Recruiter Lite) shows on that page. If billed through your company, only the admin can cancel.
Will I lose LinkedIn Learning courses I started?
You lose access to LinkedIn Learning courses, but any certificates you've already completed stay on your profile. Download certificates BEFORE cancelling for safety.
