Verified Reviewer |Resolved: Lost my account destroyah_jarvis to a scammer cause gmail got compromised.
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology. Awkwardly i somehow got it back when I checked my email >_> oops. Sorry for yelling at you guys.
Lost my account destroyah_jarvis to a scammer cause my Gmail got compromised. But Steam support ended up mistaking the new account for the compromised account instead.
To make matters worse There seemed to a duplicate account stolen out there that's preventing me from telling steam support which of my actual accounts was stolen.
I wish I could just see Melvin in trailmakers again. I miss the big goofy chirpo :C
Preferred solution: My account destroyah_jarvis back please. At least contact me if you have a way to reset the email of it

Verified Reviewer |Hacked and no resolution
Same as google. My life was hacked and nothing seems to go through.
No one can seem to help me no matter how much I call or email or try to send support tickets as nothing will go through. I just want someone to help me get my accounts back.
Preferred solution: I would like them to contact me, so that I may game again with peace of mind. Unfortunately it looks like I will have to delete my services and accounts as they have been hacked and no one will help me.
User's recommendation: Don't use, can't actually resolve a true hacked issue.

Verified Reviewer |Gift Card Problem
Adequate
I purchased a $50 gift card for my son, invoice #439797****0970****. I received an emailed receipt.
However, my son has not received notification of the gift card to either his email or his Steam account.
My credit card has been charged. This must be resolved by COB Thursday, 1/22/26, or I will contact the Better Business Bureau.
- Convenient
- Poor customer support and unable to reach a real person
Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered
User's recommendation: Purchase physical gift cards at a local store. Avoid the headache!!

Verified ReviewerRefund
Hi Steam Support,
I'm reaching out about a payment issue. On 29-Aug, I transferred R600 from my Capitec account to Steam (transaction ref: STEAMGAMES.COM 425**** BELLEVUE US) intending to buy Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
However, the funds didn't reflect in my Steam wallet (still shows R0.00) and have been deducted from my Capitec account. I no longer have the R600 in my account.
When trying to report and request a refund, I'm shown a -R600 deduction, and my request is declined.
Please help resolve this issue and assist with refunding the R600. I'd appreciate your prompt attention.
Thanks!
Please contact me at 061945****

Verified Reviewer |Problem with cards been rejected
I bought 15 20-dollar gift cards. When they were input in the system, 6 of them got rejected.
Now, my problem is that I have been trying to get in touch with customer service, and that has been a maze of redirected instructions. The fact is I haven't been able to get directly in touch with them. It's like the system is designed for them to avoid confrontation with customers.
But when I paid with my money, they didn't complain a bit. I encourage people to avoid buying Steam products.
User's recommendation: Stay away from steam products

I went to Dollar General on 93rd and Kinsman and bought three steam cards, and when I got home and scratched them, they were denied. The people told me they were already used, so now I am out of $60. My recommendation to the highest is don’t buy.
