Google notes that it could take up to a few weeks for the deletion to fully process. During this time, you might still see your account as if it exists. If it’s been over a few weeks, ensure you're not logging in with any app or service that could be reactivating it. Also, double-check that you completed all the steps in the account deletion process. If issues persist, contact Google Support for further assistance.
