  • Weragin2 Weragin (@Weragin2) reported

    Dear @Steam_Support, I've forgotten my account's information. I've tried to retrieve it, but I have a problem with CAPTCHA. I tried multiple times to complete it, but every time I do it, it sends me back to complete it again. I would appreciate, if you could help me.

  • thebageldogs Dave Mann (@thebageldogs) reported

    @Steam_Support 30 minutes I would have rather spent playing games, on my day off, I'm instead wasting on broken CAPTCHA verifications... #Steam

  • TheGodPanDab 🐼TheGodPanDab🐼 (@TheGodPanDab) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support My friend has mistakenly been given a community ban. She is now being asked by one of your developers for $500 to get her back into her account. She can't login to her account at all! Is this a legit thing or is her account being held hostage.
