Unlock Locked Google/Gmail Accounts

by | Tuesday, 24th Nov 2009 | 37 Comments | Share

Have you ever come across scenarios when you try to login to your Google or account and find out that your account is locked?

In many cases, there is not much you can do. You might have to wait between 1-24 hours to get your account working again. Thanks to Technospot.net, we came across an URL which could possibly unlock locked Google/Gmail accounts.

unlock_google_accounts

The unlock page contains a email and password field and a captcha, however, there is not indication whether this will actually unlock locked accounts. Nevertheless, if your account has been locked, you might want to try out this page to see if it actually unlocks your account. If you are interested in finding out the reasons on why Google blocks accounts, you might want to visit this Google help page.

P.S. If you are able to unlock your locked Gmail/Google accounts using the URL, please leave a comment on this page so that others can benefit from it.

    the site said something like "captcha successfully unlocked", but my account is still locked. No idea why, either, I sent a report to Google, but all I got was a reply containing all the useless information that was also presented on Google's help site.

    This did not help me. It did allow me to set a new password, as other comments have indicated, but I still get the Unusual Activity message when I try to get into Gmail.

    hi everyone,
    this trick is a nice one, but unfortunately it didnt work for me. When I follow this, it says the username or password you entered is incorrect.

    But when i sign in to gtalk with the same email account, it says, Account Bloced. Please show me a way that I can get my account. Is there any other way of getting it like security questions to be answered? like birth day or blabla?
    Thank you

    Didn’t work for me.
    However, while I can’t get into my account via gmail, it works fine through igoogle.com and via my IMAP connection in Outlook.

    It has been over 24 hours and still not been unlocked, nor have google responded to my emails.

    hey frnd plss.. help me some 1 has hacked my gmail account but i got the password back but during log in it is showing that my account has been locked.. wat 2 do… frnd.. help me out plsss

  23. BobF on January 5th, 2011 at 12:01 am #

    account locked due to unusual activity? Not sure what that could be, been over 2 days. Tried the utility above and it didn’t work. Able to access mail using iPod/iPhone, but not using any browser on several different computers. Frustrating when all you can do is fill out online forms to get google to “fix”. I have plane ticket info that I can’t get to. :(

  24. Sherri on February 14th, 2011 at 10:50 pm #

    Worked for me. Thanks!
