I tried removing my Telus gmail account and, as suspected, it removed it from the Gmail app as well. I turned account notifications off for my Telus Google account, so it can keep trying to sign-in all it wants. Out of sight out of mind I guess.

I am having the same problem as well which started a week ago. Need a proper solution that either prevents the telus.com account from logging in or allow the telus.com email to complete the login and stop the error notifications. Disabling play service notifications is a temp hack and not a solution
- KayW2 years agoNeighbourI also had this issue starting Feb 23rd and it was driving me crazy! I ended up removing my Telus Google account from my phone. I can still check my emails because I use Outlook rather than Gmail and added my Telus account as IMAP. But who knows what else I lost access to.
- Steve72 years agoOrganizerIf you were receiving sign-in requests from Google Play Services, turning off all notifications from your (Telus) Google account is probably overkill. I was able to stop the sign-in notifications on my Android 14 phone by:
- Settings
- Notifications
- App Notifications
- Google Play Services (toggle off)- sandmanbc712 years agoAdvisor
You are right. Bad wording on my part. I had turned off account action notification specifically for my Telus Google account on my Chromebook only.
- xray2 years agoHeroI started getting the notifications a few days I ago. I didn't turn off all Google Play Services notifications, just the Account action required category.
- Steve72 years agoOrganizerI agree with WayneT.
Telus/Google needs to fix the underlying problem - whatever it is. In the meantime, I'll live without the Notifications.
Suggest the Accepted Solution status be removed until this is fixed.
- Patq2 years agoNeighbourThat stops it but now I won't receive notifications from Google play and I don't think that's a good idea. For now, it will do. Thx.
