This is an incredible reply to receive! I suppose good current security practice is to assume that most of us will also be in a similar situation one day. There are services that I still have difficulty giving up, which are provided by companies I don't trust to not lock me out forever or to provide customer service. I feel stupid as I type this - are other people in a similar situation? Is the only option to vote with our wallets and choose better/paid providers? I like to think that there's a solution out there which returns us to a time when it didn't feel like account access involved the sword of Damocles: - coming up with the perfect combination of 2FA/Advanced Protection/removing mobile phone number which prevents these arbitrary lockouts, - a popular name and shame website collating these ridiculous examples
