Returning player can't access old account
I was playing back in 2017-2018 using a google play connected account but when I used the same account I got forced into a new fresh account.
I have the ally code from my swgoh.gg and the google play account. I can even check its achievements and the account itself and everything in it when finding allies. I also have the google play receipts from when I made purchases back then.
It's so annoying and support does not help at all even when they acknowledge that the old account exists.
I already tried the help article for recovering a lost account to no avail. Tried: restarting phone, reinstalling, logging out then back in, manually logging in, etc.
Has anyone experienced the same? How do I fix this? I don't wanna start from scratch.
I attached screenshot of my achievements page of the same google play account.
