Google Logged Me Out

Today, I removed my account from Google Chrome profile. Tried to create a new one in the same Chrome. Logged in with correct credentials and suddenly I got the message that said Google does not believe that the account belong to me.

I tried to recover the account with the secondary email address. I got the following image[1] which says it will take 30 days to get re-activation link.

What can I do here? I have everything to prove that I own the account. Now I cannot access Gitlab, Clickup and other services where I use Google sign in.

I don’t know what you can do now, but in the future you can degoogle your life to solve issues like these.

Wow. Thanks for the warning.

What possible excuse can Google have for such a long delay?

They don’t need to have excuses. They can do whatever they want for no good reason. It’s a waste of time to try to understand their actions. Better just stop using all of their services.

This is frightening.
