How to Cancel LinkedIn Learning Subscription | लिंक्डइन लर्निंग सब्सक्रिप्शन कैसे रद्द करें

LinkedIn Learning offers thousands of professional courses in business, technology, and creative skills through a monthly or annual subscription. These subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle. This comprehensive guide covers all methods to cancel a LinkedIn Learning subscription based on how you originally subscribed — through the website, Android, iOS, or a corporate/third-party plan.

Key Information: Canceling your LinkedIn Learning subscription stops all future charges but allows you to continue accessing all courses and learning content until the end of the current billing period. Your saved courses, certificates, and learning history are retained for 10 months after cancellation in case you choose to resubscribe later.

1. Canceling via LinkedIn Website (Desktop)

For subscriptions made directly through LinkedIn on a desktop browser — this is the most commonly used method:

  1. Visit www.linkedin.com and log in to your account
  2. Click your profile picture in the top-right corner
  3. Select Premium subscription or go to Settings & Privacy
  4. Click Manage Premium account on the right side of the page
  5. Scroll down and click Cancel subscription
  6. Follow the on-screen prompts and confirm the cancellation

Note: LinkedIn may offer you a discounted plan or a free pause option before completing the cancellation. You can accept these offers or continue with the cancellation as per your preference.

2. Canceling via LinkedIn Mobile App (Android)

For subscriptions managed through the LinkedIn app on an Android device:

  1. Open the LinkedIn app and tap your profile picture in the top-left corner
  2. Tap View Profile → then tap the Premium badge or banner
  3. Tap Manage Premium account
  4. Scroll down and tap Cancel subscription
  5. Follow the confirmation prompts to complete the cancellation

Note: The Android app may redirect you to the LinkedIn website in your browser to complete the cancellation process. Log in again if prompted and follow the website steps listed above.

3. Canceling via LinkedIn App (iOS / iPhone)

If you subscribed through the LinkedIn app on an iPhone or iPad, billing is managed by Apple:

  1. Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad
  2. Tap your Apple ID / Name at the top
  3. Tap Subscriptions
  4. Find and select LinkedIn or LinkedIn Learning from the list
  5. Tap Cancel Subscription and confirm when prompted

Important: LinkedIn Learning subscriptions billed through Apple cannot be canceled from the LinkedIn website or app. You must cancel through iPhone/iPad Settings or the App Store to fully stop future charges.

4. Canceling via Google Play Store (Android)

If your LinkedIn Learning subscription was processed through Google Play billing:

  1. Open the Google Play Store app
  2. Tap your profile icon in the top-right corner
  3. Go to Payments & Subscriptions → Subscriptions
  4. Find and select LinkedIn or LinkedIn Learning from the list
  5. Tap Cancel Subscription and follow the confirmation steps

To Cancel Google Pay Autopay Mandate:

  1. Open the Google Pay app
  2. Navigate to Autopay or Manage Payments
  3. Locate the LinkedIn mandate and tap Remove / Cancel
  4. Confirm the cancellation request

5. Canceling a Corporate or Organization-Provided Subscription

If your LinkedIn Learning subscription was provided by your employer, university, or organization:

  1. You cannot cancel a corporate or organization-managed subscription on your own
  2. Contact your HR department, IT administrator, or Learning & Development team
  3. Request them to remove your license or unassign the LinkedIn Learning seat
  4. Verify the removal by checking your LinkedIn Premium subscription status after a few hours

Important: Corporate LinkedIn Learning licenses are managed at the admin level. Individual employees or students cannot cancel or modify these subscriptions independently — all requests must go through the designated administrator.

6. Canceling via Third-Party or Telecom Providers

If your LinkedIn Learning subscription was activated through Jio, Airtel, Vi, or any other third-party partner:

  1. Open your telecom provider's app or website (e.g., MyJio, Airtel Thanks)
  2. Navigate to My Plans, Subscriptions, or Active Services
  3. Find the LinkedIn Learning subscription and select Cancel / Deactivate
  4. Verify the cancellation by checking your LinkedIn Premium subscription status

Critical: Subscriptions activated through telecom or third-party providers cannot be canceled directly through LinkedIn. Refund and access policies vary by provider — contact them directly for full assistance.

7. Canceling Bank-Linked Autopay / Standing Instructions

If automatic charges continue even after canceling the subscription, your bank may have an active debit mandate:

  1. Log in to your bank's internet banking portal or mobile banking app
  2. Navigate to Standing Instructions, SI Manager, or Auto-Debit Mandates
  3. Locate the LinkedIn or Microsoft mandate (LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft)
  4. Select Cancel / Revoke and confirm the request
  5. Contact your bank's customer support helpline if the mandate option is not visible in the app

Important Notes

  • Refunds: LinkedIn typically does not offer refunds for partial months or unused periods, except in cases of verified billing errors
  • Annual Plans: If you are on an annual subscription, canceling will stop renewal but you retain access for the remainder of the paid year — no partial refund is issued
  • Free Trial: If you cancel during a free trial period, you will not be charged at all — cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends to avoid billing
  • Access: You retain full access to all LinkedIn Learning courses until the end of the current billing cycle after canceling
  • Certificates: Certificates of completion already earned remain accessible even after your subscription ends
  • Verification: Always check for a confirmation email from LinkedIn and review your Premium subscription status after canceling
  • India Pricing: LinkedIn Learning is bundled with LinkedIn Premium — plans start at approximately ₹1,600/month (Career) up to ₹5,000+/month (Business)

Troubleshooting

If Autopay Still Deducts Money After Cancellation:

  • Verify cancellation status under LinkedIn Settings → Premium subscription
  • Check for active mandates in your bank app or Google Pay
  • Dispute the charge with your bank and raise a complaint with LinkedIn support

If You Cannot Find the Cancel Option:

  • Ensure you are logged into the correct LinkedIn account used during subscription
  • Check whether the subscription was made through Apple, Google Play, or a third-party provider
  • Try canceling from the original platform used at the time of subscribing
  • Contact LinkedIn support directly for further assistance

If Cancel Button Is Greyed Out or Not Visible:

  • Your subscription may be managed by an organization or employer — contact your admin
  • If on a free trial, the cancel option should still be visible — try accessing via desktop browser
  • Clear your browser cache and cookies, then try again
  • Try a different browser or device to access LinkedIn settings

Contacting LinkedIn Support

  • Help Center: linkedin.com/help
  • LinkedIn Learning Support: linkedin.com/help/learning
  • In-App Help: LinkedIn App → Profile → Settings → Help Center → Contact Us
  • Twitter / X: @LinkedInHelp for quick support and escalation

Alternatives to Canceling

  • Pause Learning: LinkedIn does not officially offer a pause feature, but you can cancel and resubscribe later — your learning progress and history are saved for 10 months
  • Downgrade Plan: Switch from a higher-tier LinkedIn Premium plan (Business or Sales Navigator) to a lower-cost Career plan that still includes LinkedIn Learning access
  • Free Courses: LinkedIn Learning offers a limited selection of free courses — browse these before canceling if cost is the main concern
  • Annual Plan Savings: If you plan to keep learning, switching from monthly to annual billing can save up to 30–40% on the subscription cost
  • Remove Payment Method: After canceling, go to LinkedIn Settings → Payment methods and remove your saved card or UPI details for added security

Before canceling, check whether LinkedIn is offering any retention discounts or free trial extensions. LinkedIn frequently offers 1–3 months at a reduced rate to subscribers who initiate the cancellation process — accepting such an offer may be a better option if you plan to return later.
