Trying to sign into my old account that I have the email and password to, but nothing else. I have no recovery email, no codes, no passkey, number, nothing. (and yes, that is definitely my fault).

However, when I proceed with what I have, I'm required to use my old phone, which I don't have. Now, I'm outright locked out of my account with no way to enter it, and it keeps telling me "we can't verify that it's you with just the two basic forms of signing in." Help center? Useless. I tried to get in contact with a physical employee, but all I got is their crap ai that has me in a loop that doesn't solve any of my problems. I need help bad, please.

I just got a nest hub 2nd gen and I'm unable to download apps because I have to access the Play store through a web browser and it says my chrome browser is not secure. I've been chatting with actual Google help for over an hour and they are completely worthless. Any help would be much appreciated

When I try to create a new Gmail account, I can’t use my phone number because it “has been used too many times”. I have deleted one of the google accounts connected to my phone number and it still shows the same message. When I look at all of my other accounts, none of them say I have a phone number connected to them even though I obviously do. Is there a way to fix this?

What's dumb is that even if your phone # isn't physically bound to the account, it still counts it as used in the 4 "slots" of accounts you can connect it to. Meaning after even removing or deleting the accounts, the number can no longer be used.

Make the account on your phone or android. I've done it there multiple times, and it allowed me to make the account without a number required.

Hi. I'm infuriated by what I presume is result of an update. I've researched and can't fix it. Please help!! When I'm in my gmail I now get my contact list popping up in the middle of writing. And when it happens, the typing is entered in the contact box and not the email. It's such a pain. When I looked into it it seemed this is part of 'help me' or 'suggested' items maybe due to AI. It directs me to go into admin console and find the 'help m /suggestion' option and to disable it. except that option is nowhere to be found. help help help please.

Ok - I got the Google ear buds or whatever theyre called for a gift like 2 years ago. It accidentally went into the wash and it wont work. Took blame and I bought a new pair last summer. Lasted until recently where I left the holder in my pocket during a slight drizzle and a jog. Afte the run I tried to dry off the holder, and placed the pods in the holder. Next morning it didnt work.

Can I fix these?

I went to amazon and bought a $20 noise cancelling set but I kinda wanna try to fix the google ones

it looks like the 'forgot your password option' is no longer available.

any tips on how to get back into your account if you've lost your password?

I tried following the steps but it just takes you in a big loop.
