So I have this youtube account that was linked with a certain email address. I forgot which one it was specifically linked to, and while deleting unneeded gmail accounts, I closed the one it was linked with. Now I can't log into youtube, and my google account is closed.

Is there any way I can email youtube and have them close my old account? Is there a way to re-open a google account?

It's really annoying, because the youtube help center doesn't have an email where users can contact support.


Thanks,
Davy
 
You can't delete your YouTube account because YouTube and Google accounts are linked, so when you deleted your Google account your YouTube account was deleted too. Correct me if I'm wrong, i'm not 100% on this.

The youtube channel and videos are still there. I didn't link my accounts when it asked me, I left them separate.
