Unable to regain admin access after interrupted Google Workspace signup

Hello,

I need help with a Google Workspace domain that appears to be in an inconsistent state.

Here is what happened:

  • I started a Google Workspace signup for my existing .com domain.
  • The first signup completed successfully up to the Trial/Payment selection step.
  • I closed the browser before adding a payment method.
  • Later I could not resume the signup.
  • I used Google Admin Toolbox - Domain in Use Recovery to release the domain.
  • I then attempted a new signup with a different admin account.

Current state:

  • The original admin account it@mydomain.com is reported as “This account was recently deleted and may be recoverable”.
  • When I try to recover it, Google eventually says “Contact your domain admin for help”.
  • The second admin account admin@mydomain.com accepts the password but fails identity verification before any SMS is sent, showing “We couldn’t verify your info”.
  • Google Admin Toolbox previously reported “Your account is suspended” for that account.

I have already tried:

  • Different networks (mobile, residential ISP, Spanish VPS).
  • Different browsers.
  • Different devices.
  • Different phone numbers.

My question:

Could a Product Expert or Google representative please check whether there is still an existing Google Workspace organization associated with this domain and advise how I can regain administrative access to the original organization?

Thank you.
