I don't think you argue. You're always free to choose some other insurer if you disagree with the premium they're quoting you.

You are implying that this kind of divergence has happened often in the past, which would then make this one not notable either. If you have any such sources to back up that claim, perhaps you could post them here to support your deletion r

Regarding the backup email account suggestion specifically, see my other comment in this thread. That's not actually possible apparently for Google accounts set up with non-Google email addresses as the primary email address, for some

Google accounts are required for many other Google services besides Gmail. Replacing Gmail is the easy part.

Regarding #1: You can set a backup email address for Google accounts if they're using Google email addresses, but you can't do this if they're using non-Google email addresses as the primary address, such as the one in that l

You lose your entire Google account if you lose your 2FA device or number (assuming it's a phone number), for any reason. Even if your Google account is set up with a non-Google email address which you still have access to, and you sti

Perhaps. And if I had known that I'd be locked out of my account in this way, even though I still have the correct password and access to the primary email, with no way to reach a human about it, of course I'd have generated those

You can set up Google accounts with non-Google email addresses as the email on the account. So I can receive email, no problem.
380.
by arbuge 4y ago
Maybe setup tells you to do that now, but this is an old account and it probably didn't say anything like that when I set it up many years ago. No recovery codes were ever generated for this account. I don't think it's reason

by arbuge 4y ago
No, I don't have a secondary email on this account.

You cannot follow any of those recommendations if you can't login to your account to do that, which is what I was trying to do. The email I received today was one of the "pestering" emails you refer to. Cannot be implemented

It wasn't a cellphone number. It was a free fax/voicemail number with jConnect. Inexplicably they changed the number I was assigned last year, and I haven't been able to reach anyone there about this, despite several attempts

I never got any message from Google advising me to do this. I did get a message today to login into my account to check my security settings and see if they were all up to date, which is what prompted this. Maybe there would have been some

It's not active any more. Calling it goes to an "out of service" message.

by arbuge 4y ago
As stated, I no longer have the phone number used for 2FA on this account, so I can't get the recovery code that way. I don't have any other recovery codes for this account.

This may work for a small subset of the population with the right friends at Google I guess, but certainly isn't an acceptable solution in general.

#2 doesn't seem possible. I don't see any way to reach any such Google employee.
