re: locked out of my gmail account

Had that happen to my wife with Yahoo mail.

it occurs when either your account is hacked, or you make numerous bad attempts to log-in.

Its best to use alpha/numeric password

To re-gain access you need to contact gmail and have them reset you password. Usually they do this through an alternate email, or security questions
I cannot access my account - Gmail Help

This sucks when you have business to take care of. How long does it take to get your account back.

It depends on reason you were locked out (hacked/forgotten password, etc.), and what verifying info google requires to allow you access. Sooner you contact them the better.

my wife's account I think was hacked (her password no longer worked), and they required a security question/Answer from like 10 years ago. She didnt remember the answer. It took here multiple emails to support and calls to convince them it was hers. She lost access for almost a month.
