Locked out of Gmail business account -> Lost Google Play Console, AdMob, app updates, and monetization

I'm in a really bad situation and hoping someone has been through this or has advice.

I got logged out of my Gmail business account and I can't get back in. This account is the owner of my Google Play Console and AdMob account.

The strange part is that I know the correct password and I can successfully complete 2FA using my Google Authenticator app. However, on the final verification step, where Google is supposed to send an SMS verification code, I immediately get the error: "Too many failed attempts. Try again later."

The error appears before an SMS is even sent, so I never have a chance to enter the code. I've waited and tried again later, but the same thing keeps happening.

This has had a huge impact on my business. My app has over 10,000 registered users, and because I can't access the account:

  • I can't access the Google Play Console.
  • I can't publish app updates or bug fixes.
  • Google Sign-In in my app has stopped working.
  • In-app purchases no longer work.
  • Ads have stopped serving because I lost access to AdMob.

Has anyone experienced this specific "Too many failed attempts" error even after entering the correct password and Authenticator code? Is there any way to get past it or contact Google about this? If the account can't be recovered, is there any way to regain access to the Play Console or transfer ownership?

At this point, I'm unable to maintain or monetize my app, and my users are affected as well. Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Review taking too long lately?

Anyone else dealing with unusually long Google Play review times lately?

My app isn’t new and I’ve been pushing updates weekly for a while now. Almost every review so far has been approved in under 12 hours, except the very first one which took about a week.

Current update has been stuck in review since Wednesday with no feedback or rejection yet. Just “In review.”

Trying to figure out if this is normal right now or if something changed on Google’s side.

Bela Pro aplikacija

Pozdrav, želimo vam predstaviti mobilnu aplikaciju za kartanje Bele na kojoj smo radili zadnjih par mjeseci, kao alternativu Playtoyu, optimiziranu za mobilne uređaje.

Prije otprilike mjesec dana smo objavili inicijalnu verziju, ali tek prije 2 tjedna su korisnici počeli pristizati u većem broju i od tad smo skupili oko 2500 registriranih korisnika. U zadnjih tjedan dana je odigrano u prosjeku 500 igara dnevno.

Trenutno smo rank 3 na App Storeu u "Card Games" kategoriji i u jednom trenutku smo bili rank 1 na Google Playu u istoj toj kategoriji.

Plan nam je raditi aktivno na ovome. Želimo napraviti što kvalitetniji proizvod. Slušamo aktivno feedback korisnika, dodajemo nove funkcionalnosti, popravljamo bugove, imamo dediciranu korisničku podršku dostupnu kroz aplikaciju.

Zasad imamo online multiplayer, ranking sutav, chat, jedinstven dizajn karata, custom made ali prepoznatljiv i odličnu atmosferu.

Za sva pitanja stojimo na raspolaganju tu u threadu ili kroz aplikaciju u support dijelu.
