Startling Discovery–– LinkedIn IS Customer Friendly After All

Startling Discovery–– LinkedIn IS Customer Friendly After All

87a1eebf.jpg

Yesterday, I posted a screed against LinkedIn for auto-billing me for their premium service.

I didn't want the service and immediately canceled it... and found out there were no refunds.

Hence my rant.

But today, I applied for a refund from LinkedIn and got it.

Was it the power of my writing? Perhaps.Or, maybe they have a heart after all.

Either way, I'm a happy dude.

Thanks, LinkedIn.

BTW, the picture is what I look like now. 

BeBee is telling me I need more words to complete this post. For once, someone is encouring me to write more, not less. What the hell kind of trick is this?

I mean, I usually just spew gibberish but now I'm being encouraged. 

Wonder of wonders.

Maybe BeBee gets paid by the word published and they think I'm costing them money.

That would be bad, and I wouldn't want to do that. 

So, I write and write and write to fill up the 220-word limit or whatever it is.

There, that should about do it.

But, maybe not.

Thanks for reading. 

BTW, my other honey is better than this.

Patrick, as I've said many times here and on LinkedIn, the Wiener and the Whopper, have 26 billion reasons not to give a shit about your dissatisfaction. But buck up, bud, they ripped off thousands of independent writers who contributed millions of dollars worth of content on the promise they would receive support for building their own individual networks of readers, then had that support ripped out from under them by LI's almost complete choking down of distribution and notifications.
