flo 🎮📚 (@Florent97139) reported@TwitchSupport Hi, I can't add a number in my Twitch profile when I validate my number. When I try on my phone it gives me an error message "We have generated to much tokens for this token_id recently, please try again later " even though this is the first time I've done this action.

Helios (@heliosthunder.bsky.social) (@HeliosThunder) reported@ScuffedGirl @ccrusher1 @TwitchSupport It's not up to you if it is an terrible offer or not, it's up to the person that's being offered the deal. If they don't believe it's worth their time then they'll most likely won't bother doing it. If you think it's good enough for you, then have fun with it.

Freemiumdude 🚪⚡🐀 (@Freemiumdude) reported@Nebyurimu_vt @arraveri @TwitchSupport definitely youtubes, the false copyright claims, permabanning channels without a real appeal process and human reviews, aggressive demonetization. twitch isn't perfect but usually worst case scenario you're banned for a couple of days to a week then you're back.

Tokyo Casper (@_Leurve) reported@TwitchSupport I've been trying to get help accessing my account; however, the site is not providing options for me to do so and there seems to be no way of contacting your team.

☆ Otako🐙📣 o̶c̵t̴o̷p̸u̷s̷ vtuber ☆ (@OtakoTan) reported@TwitchSupport I didn’t want to make this post, but after two months of begging Twitch for help this is our last resort. Twitch has continued to allow a hacker access to my friend’s twitch account. Their inaction should be a concern for every twitch account holder, as their lack of urgency and support show what little regard they have for their community members. Goobies_Hideaway was hacked on February 13th, 2026 via Discord and Twitch. Her entire identity was stolen, the hacker even tried to take loans out in her name. She has submitted 7 tickets to Twitch’s help system, and continues to only receive AI responses that do not address her situation. (1/4)

𝐂𝐆𝟓𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 (@CG5NATCH) reported@RymeyyTv @Twitch @TwitchSupport Mate, Twitch support can't even read emails. I reached out to claim my name back about a few weeks ago. They said I need to make the claim from the original accounts email. I reminded them that this IS the email from the original account and they said we've given you the answer and we're closing the ticket. So I sent them a screen shot of TWITCH' EMAIL SENT TO ME saying my account was deleted, my user name on that account will be available in 6 months and I cannot log in now because the account doesnt exist. That was back in May 2022. They closed the ticket. Didnt solve the issue. Twitch Support....

mavi mürekkep (@mawimurekkep) reported+For the 4th time I repeat the issue: The user "zahraimtiaz" is posting software ads, which are most likely scam, on ""uservoice"". The topic is "deleteable/eraseble whispers or direct messages", the link to this topic is in the 1st tweet. Please solve this @TwitchSupport. +

PyroDaMatchless (@PyroDaMatchless) reported@TwitchSupport Just an update: The phone # that Authy thinks is being used by my Son's account is NOT on that account. So, their audit is flawed. But, I don't want them to merge my Son's account with mine. How do I fix this??!

Five Star ClownMattJr. (@ClownMattJr) reportedYou should see some of his other streams. Dude is usually off the rails. @TwitchSupport can you do something about this guy? He's getting X rated in the worst and creepiest way. K thx @Behaviour all Matt plays is #DbD so he's not doing your brand any favors either.
