Deleting Google account

[AC Question]

Hey all,

I did something dumb. Over the years I spent quite a bit of money on Google Apps.
Deleted my Google account one day long after I switched to Apple. (use hotmail for Apple).
May go back to Android.
Are the app receivable in any way shape or form? The account "is" no longer valid.

If it's been awhile since your deleted your Google account, it cannot be recovered. https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6236295

You have to activate your Google Account again. If it's been years that account username has probably been taken. You'll have to make up a new one. As for the Apps, the account you used to store your apps, movies, videos etc are I believe accessible. You just willing have to use new payment method to verify the email address that relates to Google Play Store.

Hi, welcome to the forums! I think Google accounts expire after 9 months of inactivity. You could try this Google account recovery page and see if there's some way to get it back. Don't be very optimistic though.
