    I've had some rotten experiences with companies that have no humans in customer support! This is why I'd like to thank @Steam for their awesome customer support service, very helpful and kind!

    @ImCadeYT @Steam Despite positivities from Steam Customer Service, Valve (from my experience) takes time for E-Mail or Support Ticket claims, usually a day's time. If you sent the E-Mail today, give it time. Until then grab every document you can, especially purchase information.

  • MidKnightKurama

    @jx @ImCadeYT @Steam Take 5 seconds to go to the article, “CEVA received specific delivery-related information from Steam to be able to ship physical hardware to customers in Europe, and told us these are the details the attacker likely took.” So yes it COULD lead to order issues.

    @plzbnicetome @Steam Yeah I did that for a long time with Nintendo and it sucked, I ended up with lots of games I ended up not liking, lots of wasted money, and steam actually let's you return games you don't like. Very weird how you want service to be WORSE. I don't EXPECT them to, they LET ME.

    @ColorTheBooks @Steam I heard that Valve has already been on vacation, so if that’s still affecting the review process, we’re really in trouble. Please...

    Hey @Steam, I'm having trouble reporting a developer who slipped DLC for their pixelated game behind a $31/month pay wall on Patreon behind your back. Your help site is a little outdated and I've wanted a ticket on this topic for months.

    I am not able to sign in to my steam account even after changing my password 3 times successfully. And there is no option to reach out to steam for issue on the website. It only leads to same landing page for changing the password. @Steam @Steam_Support

    @MrPsychoWTF @Steam What does the screen look like when you click on the Store? Mine shows “Error code: -118.”

    @Steam_Support I have lost my login ID. The @Steam ID is not connected to anyone, i.e. my phone. I remember my gmail but I still can't access the software. I can't play games. Please help me @Steam_Support

    Hey @Steam fix your stuff! I have funds in my wallet but can’t utilize them? Why? I’ve done all the steps listed but still won’t work. @Steam_Support

    @Steam Will Microphone Audio get fixed in game clips any time soon? There's been reports of clipping and microphone issues since Game Reccording Launched, and I'm still struggling to not sound blown out even after hours of messing with settings.

    @Steam Im trying to contact someone in support about an issue im having with my account on one of the games i have in my library and there is literally no option to just open a ticket.

    @EatPantGames It unfortunate that @PlayStation idiocy is causing problems like this for small indie teams and games. Obviously not everyone can do physical release. @Steam has proven they are trustworthy with digital for decades. Hope people support you over there. I will 👍

    @Zoroarts @Steam The problem isn't Steams refund policy.

    @Zoroarts @Steam I am so sorry this happened and Im glad that person commented as a way for you to see your game isnt the issue, even if they are part of the problem. I hope they change this for smaller games.

    this is still broken, @valvesoftware @steam please fix <3

    Sunkanmi Fafowora (@the_jonin_) reported

    That's why @Steam still remains the best company out there, and it's not even close. Their customer service is literally unbeatable at this point. Still saw the recent news of the refund based on the fact that the gamer was cheated in a way after many hours of playthrough.

    Maxie 🎮 Bloodstained | Visions of Mana | ONINAKI (@maxieaftermdnyt) reported

    @ZirraTGK That’s me in a nutshell. If not physically, I’ll be getting those games on @Steam. At least Steam has good customer service even though they also sell digital licenses (@GOGcom doesn’t really sell their games in my country sadly)

  • pikachufrankie
    pikachufrankie (@pikachufrankie) reported

    @Zoroarts @Steam Portal 1 is roughly a little over an hour long, yet has never had this issue. Limbo is only a few hours long, and also never had this issue. You can make short games that people won’t want to refund. If people are mass refunding your game, it’s because it isn’t worth the price.

    @Riley_McKenna1 @Steam Well, I don't know why steam hates you, but I've had no problems
