-
PhilTheStampede (@PhilTheStampede) reportedGetting sick of this ****. @valvesoftware @Steam @Steam_Support How do you justify this? How are you fixing the issue? Tell BlackRock to kick rocks. Your users will pay you any way you come up with.
-
Zalzarr【Momma Quack 】 (@Zalzarrquack) reportedImagine harassing me 4 hours just sending me invites after invites like begging you wanna play with me, doing 3 different accounts on twitch, getting banned 3 times, changing your Steam name almost 5 times and THEN sending me this unban request?! @Steam your blocking system is not working btw.
-
Active Tower Lore (@SubmarineTower) reported@Steam I am unable to request a refund at the moment. I get a red error and when I hit try again I get the message error code: -379.
-
mertowski (@onermertt) reported from Germencik, AydınWhen are you planning to address the cheating issue in this game? We come in hoping for some peace and enjoyment, but we end up leaving with red marks of frustration. Please review the account I've submitted a ticket for! @Steam @Steam_Support @CounterStrike

markemark1286 (@MarkBerryh45268) reported@ThisOldGuy3 @Steam @grok I've never played. Is it good? I need a good game to fix my brain.
-
Herman G. Krueger (@HermanKrue10077) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Bro, is this a late April fool? You have perhaps one of the shittiest launchers ever made in pc history. Every ******* time I open Uplay I have to resyinc some **** or login again. Just do yourself a favour, close that Cloaca Maxima and bring your games on Steam already.
-
J. Ilmari (@hide_X666) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Would've been nice if your servers would've let me purchase it. Got errors 30 mins straight and then it was sold out
-
Mark Guy (@noxtics) reported@nicholasadeleon @valvesoftware @Steam I got the same error, I didn’t spam it though, I let it sit for a bit and then tried again. It took 5 attempts like this and then I got through.
-
Creo (@Creo_exe) reportedAlright I need to talk about the customer support over at @valvesoftware and @Steam That **** goes SO HARD. Like, idk what y'all are teaching your employees, but keep that going. EVERY time I've needed ANYTHING you've always been a great help. This is why I use your service.
-
0G_M3T47R0N (@Met47ron) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck I was met with that error and just spam clicked the link until I got a different page to finally populate!
-
ViDEOGOMEZ (@videogomez) reported@Null1130250 @valvesoftware @Steam They've had YEARS to fix their international supply problems, I had to buy my Steam Deck from a third party just because I live a few kilometers below Texas.
-
ThisOldGuy 🤘🎸🎮 (@ThisOldGuy3) reported@shivachettri @Steam No problem, I am happy to be able to do these.
-
AnimeKing18 (@King18Anime) reported@Pirat_Nation I love the @Steam support team. Out of all of them Steam support was always there to help and always found a solution to a problem no matter if it's hardware or software. The last time I had to contact Steam support was with a out of warranty Index Controller. They were out of stock at the time and I wanted to see how much they would charge to fix it. After some troubleshooting steps they offered to replace the controller for free (and this was around 2 to 3 months out of warranty). For me I'll buy from Valve before I buy from anyone else, I'm looking forward to the Steam Controller and Steam Frame. @valvesoftware

mr orange (@streamingdeluxe) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Cant buy problem with billing address :(
-
Adam Orand (@King_INF3RN0) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Only took 50 minutes of spamming the continue button. Maybe some launch-day payment processing server allocation? Monday at noon pacific is a low time for gaming, might as well, right? Gonna need to fix this for the Machine and Frame...
-
It's Totally Mikoto Time! (@MikotoWolfskin) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Selling out in 36 minutes is absolutely bathetic! Where is the Que? Preorders? Why did you not stop scalping! 2 per customer didn't help! in the start 1 per customer and stop reviewer from getting one in the start. Endless transaction error. Highly disappointed!
-
Vedant Kalore (@VedantKalore) reported@choehau_ara @Steam @Steam_Support So then they should fix it.... As their consoles run Linux afterall
-
KV12 (@KnightVision12) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck “That’s not demand, that’s a broken purchase system.” ok clanker
-
HellowJack (@BiohazardHawk) reported@valvesoftware @Steam will it be a revisioned model soon? usually the first batch has some problems
-
LTLuh (@HiddenTenno) reported@UbisoftSupport @Steam Fix your launcher, it sucks, or better, let us open the games directly from steam without having to see that mess you call launcher
-
Smitty Werbenjagermanjensen (@TheVisitorSNAFU) reported@GooningOnRumble @Steam Did stream also crash? Some delisted products if gifted from an inventory won’t work and can crash the system. Also is the game sold in the West or is it an Asian game like Dead Or Alive volleyball?
-
Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported@HyperLovingBun @valvesoftware @Steam The controller isn't effected by RAM price increases, so that shouldn't be an issue...
-
Torelethain (@torelethain) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Seriously guys, why did you not roll this out like the Deck to prevent scalpers? You already had this problem solved. Big disappointment, guess I'll have to wait now.
-
Reverse (@Reverse19455362) reported@IoriShakor @Steam @OnDeck Nah you are just broken lil bro
-
olafkswg - Buying Skins 95% (@olafkswg) reportedIs this a planned change with no announcement or a bug? Broken trade history suggests the other, @Steam support can't answer this question.
-
Michael (@MikeTriceratops) reported@smith_rust @valvesoftware @Steam Anybody that actually pays them those prices and rewards them for their scummy selfish behavior is only perpetuating the issue and encouraging them to continue scalping. Out of principle, I will wait however long I need to in order to purchase directly from Valve.
-
Cap'n Slipp (@CapnSlipp) reportedDear @Steam, the useful Verification Code From E-mail feature in iOS/iPadOS doesn't work with e-mails from Steam. I believe this is because iOS only looks at the notification, not the whole e-mail. Please move the code further up (text-wise) in your e-mails to fix this. #UXBug
-
Colton Pospichal (@PospichalColton) reported@valvesoftware @Steam Fix your storefront so people can actually make transactions or stock enough so people can purchase them.
