    @Steam I have spent a lot of time and money on my Steam account, but no longer have the phone number tied to the mobile authenticator. Guess I lost 150+ titles. Terrible customer service!

    You people are thieving morons. I paid the pittance I scraped up to buy "Stray" but after a long time of horrible family trouble and pain, can I relax and actually PLAY the game? NO! Apparently I have to contact support to CHANGE MY PASSWORD?!? @Steam

    Fix your download anjeng @Steam

  • crummykarma Karito Karma (@crummykarma) reported

    So today's drama includes @Steam. So someone I hold very dear to me wasted so much money on his account only for some hacker to impersonate him and attack someone. But instead of finding out the real person behind the issue apparently they're asking him $500+ to appeal.

  • MrJoeSterne Joe Sterne ☕️☁️ (@MrJoeSterne) reported

    @FortniteGame is absolutely gorgeous on that screen. @SeaOfThieves works great, even launched from the MS launcher and not @Steam. It’s so weird. I’m probably a couple years away from Cooper wanting a machine and I’m worried I may not be able to fix stuff like this

  • HunterHarrell Hunter Harrell (@HunterHarrell) reported

    @Steam Fix your server bro, just got Dc'ed from MW2 says no steam connection and I am not the only one.

  • NagsSherbet Sherb (@NagsSherbet) reported

    Bummed out. I just purchased a @Steam game from @humble and got an error trying to activate it. Just submitted a support ticket with Humble. Here's hoping I don't have to wait too long. I was really looking forward to that game.

  • NYGBCpod Not Your Grandmother's Book Club Podcast (@NYGBCpod) reported

    Hey @Steam I appreciate the updates, but how about an update that fixes the glitch where for two weeks after an update it tells me the driver will be updated after I restart the computer, no matter how many times I've restarted

  • Edper7156 eduardo b. perez (@Edper7156) reported

    @ThoJullien2 @Steam Go inbox MYSTICHACKED07 on Instagram My account also bugged and support service aren’t doing anything about it, he successfully retrieved my account, he is the best.

  • Emjr_12 Mani (@Emjr_12) reported

    @CivGame am not sure if you are aware of this problem. As of late CIV 6 has been crashing. PC version. I am not only one who is encountering this problem. Other fellow @Steam player have as well. I already reinstall the game it got much worse. Now I can only play 10 turn 😭

    @Steam I'd love to play Warzone, the only issue is that I need to verify my ago, and well since I didn't receive my codes to verify I cannot. Also your support is ****.

  • _shugen Eli (@_shugen) reported

    @Steam will we have csgo hackers fix ever?

  • goncalokosta ColdHunter (@goncalokosta) reported

    @Komegatze @Steam I know this is gonna sound annoying, but the only way to get this issue resolved is if you reopen that ticket (if that's a thing on steam) and just keep insisting that at the very least you want the purchased product to be deleted from whatever account it went to

  • LipaLegacy LipLeg (@LipaLegacy) reported
