Verified Student status but not able to see Linkedin Premium offer for 12 months

Hi,

I recently verified my student status to claim the offer of 12 month MS 365 premium and Linkedin Premium. I was able to successfully verify my student status and claim 12 month MS 365 premium. However, I do not see any option or way to claim free Linkedin premium for 12 months with my student status. I currently do not have Linkedi premium. Could you please advise on how to get the offer?
Thank you!

Best Regards,

    Hey !

    I have the same problem, I successfully verified my student status and redeeemed the M365 offer, but I never received the LinkedIn activation link.

    I followed Mukesh's advice and changed my LinkedIn primary email adress to my student one there were no student offer.

    Does it mean that, even though I redeemed my access while the offer was still open, I cannot obtain it ?

    Best regards

    Hello Ishita Rakholia,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A forum

    I understand that you recently verified your student status to claim the offer of 12-month MS 365 premium and LinkedIn Premium. However, you do not see any option or way to claim free LinkedIn premium for 12 months.

    Student promotions like LinkedIn Premium are limited time offers and subject to availability. If the benefit no longer appears in your account after verification, it means the promotion has ended and Microsoft does not reinstate expired offers.

    You can review the current active benefits on the official Microsoft Student Offer page using your verified account.

    You can read about it in this thread with similar issue:

    Feel free reply back to this post if you have any more questions or issues, I'll be happy to help.
