lost my email because of Google 2FA
TL;DR, my computer broke because I spilled water onto it. I got a new phone recently and my number was changed, so I couldn't use that to log back in with 2-step verification, and I tried send it to my alternate email instead. It says I have to "wait 24 hours" but I never get the fucking verification email so apparently I have lost my email account and everything attached to it.

We really need some legislation for those cases. Your digital “life” also deserves some rights. You should have some way to legally appeal a permanent ban or other lock-outs. Similar to how a GDRP data request works.
I agree that the digital life deserves rights for certain services like email, social network site, etc. But the line is pretty thin between rights and rights to anonymity.
