    @Steam_Support @Steam Hey, when I'm having an issue with a ticket how do I escalate to speak to a supervisor?

  • totally_terror Andrew (@totally_terror) reported

    @Steam I think your Captcha is broken. It's been ten minutes.

  • totally_terror Andrew (@totally_terror) reported

    Been trying to create a @steam account for twenty minutes now and apparently they've had Captcha issues since the beginning and refuse to do anything about it. Well, **** you too, Steam.

  • totally_terror Andrew (@totally_terror) reported

    @Steam I've done a little research and it seems like you've had Captcha problems for a long time, so how come it's still required?

  • Shailes41477591 __Damn__peasants__ (@Shailes41477591) reported

    @Steam Fix your steam.... It's not working right now

  • MikeTemplar1 MIKE TEMPLAR ⭐️ (@MikeTemplar1) reported

    @PantaMusic @Steam I know the rules, I made the mistake - this is clear. But every serious & customer-friendly service would handle this. This is like robbery: I can't use the product and it's not physical, hence it can't be altered. I am coming out of the software industry, this is a no go.

  • Newsight4 New_sight (@Newsight4) reported

    @Steam Yo @Steam can we get a statement of whats going on and how long it will take to allow me to login?

  • DaniiNegroo Danii91c😎 (@DaniiNegroo) reported

    @Steam @Steam_Support because you don't reply on twitter or by mail nor can you open a ticket on steam because it gives you an error

  • survey_channel 𝗦𝗨𝗥𝗩𝗘𝗬 𝗖𝗛𝗔𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗟 (@survey_channel) reported

    @PantaMusic @MikeTemplar1 @Steam This, it's pretty reasonable considering many storefronts lag behind and don't even allow returns, or make it difficult.

  • MrStoney4201 MrStoney (@MrStoney4201) reported
