    @Steam I’m having trouble using the forgot password through the steam app. Stuck in a feedback loop. It says my password has been updated, then asks if you want to store it in my iPhones password wallet. Then I go to log in from there - no luck. Then, try thru web - no luck

    My favorite thing about @Steam is that, while my steam account is stuck on a black screen for weeks with no end in site, they’ve been incredibly complimentary on my troubleshooting skills. Now, we need to fix the problem!

  • Simsie_rosebud Ashley Boehret (@Simsie_rosebud) reported

    @Steam I have been trying to make a steam account for 2 days! I keep getting a recaptcha error. I was going to buy an early release from you but I guess I’ll go to Epic Games instead. There’s no where to each out on your website. So frustrating.
