The Youtube account is banned. Google can escalate things and widen the net to ban anything and everything you have in the Google ecosystem, like a Gmail account. You can see here [0] that OP still has access to the Gmail account.

It’s not clear that that is the Gmail account to be fair.

Still, you’re not going to let Google continue charging you for nothing and still keep your email with them.

Anyone who has anything like this happen to them is moving off Google products.
