Google Play Help

Hello,
Am at my witts end.
At the end of last year I had a flurry of Google Play transactions made via PayPal that then hit my Monzo account quickly and totalling 1,200.
Tried to get a refund via Google Play which was declined. Then PayPal declined and Monzo wouldn't allow a claim under the direct debit scheme from Monzo.
Have sent many emails to Google including the complaints person named on the FCA register and just not getting any responses.
Any ideas what I should do?

Google Play transactions, for games and videos I haven't used. I have no idea how this happened and am just getting nowhere with escalating.

It looks like somebody has your Paypal user name and password and is using it.
Do these purchased games and videos appear in your google account? If you have children or partner, do they appear in their google accounts?
