Several Google Accounts Disabled?
Some of you posted feedback that your Google Account was suddenly disabled. John Welch said when he tried to log-in yesterday, he received the following error:
Sorry, your account has been disabled. For more information about Google Accounts, please consult our Help Center at .
Paul B. says, “Crap! I’ve been using gmail since 04, and I just [convinced] my wife to stop using outlook and start using Gmail this weekend. With IMAP support I was easily able to get her old email into Gmail and last night BOOM, ’Sorry, your account has been disabled.’ What the freak is going on!”
If your Gmail account drops dead on you and you receive the same instructions given to John Welch (visit the Help Center) you will end-up on a dead-end page with no way to contact Google. If that's the case and you live near Google's Wordlwide Headquarters, which is in the greater San Francisco Bay Area, you might consider getting in the car and driving over to their sprawling campus to deliver your complaint in person.
Here's where to find GoogleWorld:
1600 Amphitheatre ParkwayMountain View, CA 94043
If you're too far away to show up in person, then reach for the telephone. Here's the number to call: phone: . If that still doesn't work for you, send them a fax. Here's the number:

I have come across this exact problem. I have made no violations nor do I use any google technology other than gmail but my account has been disabled. My life is in my gmail email account and I am starting to panic. I filled out the form to google but there is absolutely no way to get a response from them. Its only been 2 days but I have heard a multitude of horror stories about deleted gmail accounts. Do you have any more tips or information to share? It would be tremendously appreciated!!

Google are part of the 'new world order'and trying for monopoly of information, we need to use others like Yahoo.com and ASK.com. I'm looking for a international lawyer to get Google to remove all my information from their servers. Google are the official BAD GUYS and what a shame it is. Gmail closed my account because I had a password stealing trojan that attacked Firefox, my secutiry was pretty good. I upgraded, spent ages on securing computer, begged gmail etc - ruthless bunch, nasty bunch, evil bunch. They're getting a court case and a bad reputation ++++ THE END FOR GOOGLE HAS ARRIVED.
PS Big apology if I'm wrong, but not in this case.This is malicious. You couldn't PAY me to use Google for anything after this.
Ms Robillard: With all respect, I disagree with you. I believe you are misinformed and mistaken.
I know a number of Google employees. The world headquarters for Google is in the greater San Francisco Bay Area at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043. Take VTA Transit or CalTrain. Call them at . If you drive you will find the headquarters just off U. S. Highway 101.
There is nothing evil about the corporation or collectively about the employees. I know a number of current and past Google employees. To suggest there is some sort of inherent moral turpitude resident within Google is ridiculous and absolutely without basis in fact.
I suspect your problem, Ms Robillard, can be resolved if you invest some of your time in learning more about computer and Internet architecture and then make an effort to understand the Gmail system better. It is easily comprehended and mastered by elementary school children.
I have used Gmail for nearly the five years of its life and I have experienced zero issues.
Knowledge, Ms Robillard, can make your life easier and provide you with an escape from your anger.
Think about taking some night classes at a college near you. You may also want to start reading the official Gmail blog at: http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/
Demonizing Google and its employees is a cheap shot that is intellectually lazy. So, calm down, take a deep breath and think about what you write before doing so.
It is better to be thought a fool and be silent than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
Good luck with your future email adventures!
