@irene @datawraith
Hindsight 50/50.
That doesn't solve the problem that I have right now though.
I can still see use the Gmail app on my phone so I really don't understand what Google is playing at. -
Actually @irene, I don't get what you mean by recovery sequence.
-
@irene ah yes. Those are set up. That is what's annoying. The authenticator app and the phone number are set up and available but apparently not enough.
-
@irene and frustrating.
when your code is a mess but everything work out in the end
When you keep getting +1s on a rant you posted a month ago.
Go big or go home.
What the fuck is wrong with Google?!!
Trying to log into Gmail.
Forgot password.
Gmail: To reset, code from authenticator app is required.
Me: Super. Good thing I set it up.
Enters code.
Gmail: Recovery email.
Me : Uh... Forgot that too.
Gmail: Some email address to communicate.
Me: Super!
Enters some other email address.
Receives mail with a link.
Me: Finally!
Opens link
Gmail: "When did you create your account?"
Me: Uh... If I had that kind of memory, we wouldn't be dancing right now.

Gmail: Sorry we couldn't verify you.
WHAT THE FUCK, GOOGLE?!
What sort of sadist play is this?!
Dropped them a mail to get access back. Got a link in the auto reply that explains how to repeat the above process. WTF?!
What the actual fuck?!
