Gmail expert advice needed pls

Afternoon all

I've locked out of my gmail and cannot remember my current password nor able to figure out previous ones or able to access the recovery email etc

It is a legitimate email address and true case of being stupid and not writing the password down nor setting up a correct process

Is there a way around it or another way I can prove to Google it's actually my account?

Thanks in advance

Cheers

No way round it.
You have to satisfy their questions or you are out of luck.
There's no pleading your case to someone on the phone.
I went through this with a lesser used gmail account. I could tell them previous passwords, email contents etc and it made no difference.

Unless anyone else can say otherwise.

It's not there, there are saved passwords but none for Gmail I can see

Nothing under Google instead of Gmail in Chrome or Keychain?

Do you have any other (old or currently used) devices on which you've accessed gmail and may still be "logged in"?

That was a good idea but not anymore unfortunately
