I’d just give it time. Let the account sit unused and set any messages to be forwarded to your new account. If you don’t notice anything in the next year or so, you probably won’t miss anything that might still be linked.
Unfortunately, that's not an option. I'm going to continue using the same email address, and I don't want to continue spending the $30ish a month for services and storage I'm no longer using.
I'm not going to be much help ATM, but I believe there is some Google service that allows you to use "foreign" email addresses to log in to a Google account. What that would mean is that you could move your domains away from Google but then keep the Google accounts based on those domains active.
Anyway, fingers crossed I remember about this and actually find the thing I'm taking about and get back to you later today.
I know you can register a google account with an external/non-gmail account. However, you can't transfer the workplace accounts, or reassign them to other things. Once you close your workspace account/subscription, they're vapor.
If there's a way to do it, that would be fabulous, of course!
