Does anybody know, if there is any way to get a Google account opened if you forget ur passwords?

Part of the story: After a few months of owning a phone, you have personal pictures and video that were unknowingly backed up to Google plus. Then, you break phone. Need new one and forget password so you make New Google account, more pics and video.. Then same thing happens. Loose phone, get new phone and make new account....

So, now there are multiple Google plus accounts with same name:

Bill Clinton
bill clinton
Bill clinton
bill Clinton

I want to delete 3 of those and keep one.

Is that possible???

Did you add the phone numbers to the google accounts?

Did you set them up with a different email address for a backup?

When you open most email accounts, you are asked to provide a secondary email and/or phone number for exactly this reason.

Password reset, check other email, done.

Well,.. it is not me, the person tried signing in to one of the accounts and could not get in,.. they would get to a certain point, then be stuck. They only use their phone as they don't have internet access, I went and found the multiple accounts and told them about it... now they want the videos that are on a few of them removed. They had no idea all the photos and videos they took would be backed up to the google plus account.

It is very possible that someone else made the account(s) for them each time they got a new phone as they are not techies in any way shape or form. I think they are probably stuck.

I am just guessing but maybe one or 2 times they could not use the same phone number because they forgot the google password (?), which led to them making a new account (also forgetting about the photos/video) The person in question has had at least 3 numbers in past 2 years...
