Google plus is a nightmare!

Google plus really needs to just have ZERO association with youtube. I just lost my 5mil views & 120,000 subscriber channel because of them.
I was told by youtube in order to link adsense I had to remove the manager account (i was admin) so I did that and it ended up just removing the email off the youtube.
The password doesn't work anymore so basically the youtube is just floating there unlinked to anything. You can't reset it or do anything so here's some quality advice
from another pissed off user from google+ DO NOT LINK YOUR YOUTUBE TO GOOGLE PLUS, it will only cause complications for you.

TL;DR i'm out $1k/month in ad revnue because google+ is a shitty service.

Does anyone know any ways to contact them directly? I know google is notorious for giving shitty customer support but it'd be nice to try and get in contact some how.

When I need to contact Google, and you know... actually get a human, I just send in a BBB (Better Business Bureau) complaint. Explain the problem, what you want resolved, and the online form sometimes asks for why you didn't contact them directly. I just put in that you really can't contact Google directly, they'll forward the message to Google, and in a few days you'll get a reply or phone call. You can request either one.
