Hi govi , 

 

Hope you are doing well? 

 

I have a few questions I hope you can help me with:

  • Are you accessing the account via EMM or Play Console?
  • Is this the Google account associated with EMM Binding?
  • Have you established a recovery email for this work account in the event of a password reset?

 

If you are still logged in, you can proceed to play.google.com/work/adminsettings and add another administrator under the admins box. Should you require assistance with resetting the two-factor authentication for the account and there is another administrator within your organization, you may follow the instructions provided in this link: support.google.com/a/answer/2537800?hl=en. Further guidance can also be found here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1064203?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DAndroid.

 

Thanks

Reece

thanks for your time and support.

 

  • Are you accessing the account via EMM or Play Console? : Both, for Apps via Emm, for managing Admin account via Playconsole
  • Is this the Google account associated with EMM Binding? Yes,
  • Have you established a recovery email for this work account in the event of a password reset? this was missed by us. hence facing the pain now.

Note : we are able to login with the password, But 2factor auth phone number is the blocker which is not allowing us to login in to the google account itself.
