No LinkedIn premium with Microsoft Premium

Question

I recently signed up for Microsoft student offer that offers Microsoft premium and LinkedIn premium, I did not get LinkedIn premium or any code for it even though my student account was verified. Does someone know any steps that I should be following?

Answer 1

For this specific student offer, the LinkedIn Premium activation is typically delivered by email after the Microsoft 365 subscription is successfully activated and the academic status is verified. In a very similar case, the LinkedIn Premium email was sent correctly but did not appear in the user’s mobile mail app; it only showed up when checking the same mailbox from a desktop browser.

Based on that:

1. Sign in to the email account used for the student/Microsoft 365 offer from a desktop browser (not just a phone app).
2. Check Inbox, Spam/Junk, Promotions/Other (if using Gmail or similar), and any focused/other inbox filters for a message about the LinkedIn Premium offer.
3. Make sure all folders are fully synced/loaded (no “partial sync” or offline mode).
4. If multiple email addresses were involved during sign-up (personal + school), repeat steps 1–3 for each of them.

If the email still cannot be found after checking from a desktop browser and all folders, contact Microsoft support for the student offer or Microsoft 365 subscription so they can review the promotion status on the account and advise on next steps.
