They then referred me to their legal department. Would this apply if you have a bank account hacked/compromised? You'd be left to your own devices, because they wouldn't just say yes or no? I'm sorry, but I want to deal with a business that puts customer service at the forefront.

I am hitting a brick wall with Google GMail. My primary gmail account has been frozen, and as far as I know, I did nothing wrong. I am hitting a brick wall with Google GMail.

Basically only happens when I have gmail open in too many locations (especially if i'm using 2 different browsers on the same computer) This has happened to me a couple of times, but usually fixed quickly.
