Removing LinkedIn posts: frequently asked questions
Can you remove a LinkedIn post about you?

United Press removes accepted LinkedIn posts within 96 hours, 100% guaranteed, or a 100% refund.
How do I report a LinkedIn post?

Will LinkedIn remove a post because it is critical?
No. LinkedIn allows professional criticism and opinion. A post comes down when it breaks its policies or the law.
A former employee posted about my company. Can it go?
If it shares confidential information, names junior staff, harasses people or makes false claims of fact, often yes. An honest account of their experience usually stays.
What does UK law say about defamatory posts?
Under the Defamation Act 2013 there is a process for website operators: once a proper complaint is made, the operator contacts the poster, and if they do not respond the material can be removed. A solicitor can advise on serious cases.
How long does LinkedIn take to remove a post?
LinkedIn does not publish a fixed time. United Press works to a written 96-hour deadline, or a full refund.
