Once I had somewhat similar issue with blockchain.
In my case, I had access to my email but I was not receiving the 2fa code in my email and I tried almost 12 hours to login.
Later I tried to reset 2fa (I forgot it worked or not), but I also contacted their support and asked for their help and within 1 hour my issue was solved.

They just removed the 2fa from my account and I logged in with identifier and password later.

Try to contact them but before try to reset 2fa on your own.

In this case only your recovery phrase can help you, try to go here https://blockchain.info/wallet/#/help and choose "I've lost my Wallet Password" but I'm afraid if it will work since you have 17 word seed instead of 12. After doing that, you will get a new wallet id, (if I'm correct) and will ask you new email and password.


If does not have the wallet identifier it is not at all possible to recover the blockchain wallet without email that too possible with the already verified device. I do not understand why you shared the useless link which cannot help the OPs issue.
If you forgot the password you will get the phrase change it as well as they provide new wallet identifier but without e-mails address how all these information can be changed to untrusted source belongs to the wallet. Please read the link you shared itself first.
Before posting your thought/s please read the whole thread first not just the first reply nor not just the first link posted. And if you don't want to help OP then why mind replying Roll Eyes.

PS : sent ticket to blockchain too ..
Did you try to use this link to recover your whole wallet with your 17-word recovery phrase?

1. The page you linked only works with a 12 words backup. He said that he has 17 words, so he *probably* needs to use the page I linked above.
Yes that's why I put the phrase "I'm afraid if it will work since you have 17 word seed instead of 12" then why not try?

Edit: I see here's the link to recover the legacy wallet of blockchain https://blockchain.info/wallet/forgot-password which was posted already.

2. He already has his password and that's not the issue...?
Password is useless without the email because of its email confirmation, so you have to update the email together with the password, and you will get a new wallet id for that too.

Do you have a 'wallet.aes.json' file?

IIRC the 17 word backup from Blockchain.info is only useful if you want recover your wallet password in this[1] page. Can you verify?

If that's true, I believe that your only option is trying to reset the 2FA by going to the login page -> "More options" -> "I've lost my 2FA device"[2] as explained here[3].
