If you’re the only admin:
Go to:
👉 https://support.google.com/a/
Contact support:
- Verify domain ownership (DNS / billing)
- Request admin account recovery
📌 Google may ask:
- Domain verification (TXT record)
- Billing proof
❌ What will NOT work
- Changing settings (you can’t login)
- Disabling policies (Starter doesn’t support bypass anyway)
- Advanced Protection toggle (not relevant)
🧠 Critical lesson (for later)
After recovery, IMMEDIATELY:
Create 2nd Super Admin (no restrictions)
Add:
Authenticator app
Backup codes
Don’t rely on one phone
