Hm, I'd try timing the request so that it's the middle of the night wherever the thief lives. Try once assuming that he lives in America, once assuming Eastern Europe.
Unfortunately (because their services are quite good) google has no support staff. This is well known, and you should take it into account when using the services they offer. It is not difficult to do without them. Asking for help on HN or Reddit works sometimes, but if your business (or personal life for that matter) relies on their services you should really work towards being able to do without them.

Did you set the recovery email the same as the main email? Cause I only get password reset to the recovery email.

The issue is that you're not Google's client. Maybe buy something from them (a large amount of ads), then try to get support?

Genuinely asking: is there a paid email provider roughly on par with Google's offerings in terms of usability and uptime? I'd consider switching.
However, I'm using an IMAP box on Gandi.net and a domain purchased elsewhere and that is it. I refuse to use any services tied to a single company any more.
This change has given me a lot of headspace for other things.

Remember: We're not Google's clients, we're Google's products
Please stop repeating this intellectually lazy and false meme. Or go to reddit; platitudes that don't require critical thinking tend to do better there.
