Are you kidding me???

I decided after some time to start getting some games. Nothing major, small stuff. And now I get this? Screw this. This has never been an issue before. I don't think so Steam. I deleted my credit card. Sorry I gave you all a chance again.

You're mad because Valve is protecting themselves and you have an option to verify the card but you'd rather complain about nothing? Are you kidding me...???

Yeah that's not on Steam, that's on the credit/debit card company.

This sounds like a typical hold due to suspicious activity. Either the vendor or your card company has done this. They are attempting to verify that you made the purchase, and that somebody else isn't engaged in identity theft. This is the kind of thing you'd expect from a trustworthy vendor.

Such an odd hill to die on for a temporary restriction that everyone is subjected to.

This has been in place since day 1 of the Market, over a decade ago.

Please read everything in the last section of the FAQ starting here...

It's a fraud prevention/protection measure Valve has in place.

It's not on the providers end.

If it were the providers end, it would be a failed transaction that the provider requests authorization for the transaction to go through on their website/app.

I've had the latter happen when purchasing the Deck for the first time. My bank flagged it as suspicious and made me authorize it on their website.

:nkCool:

If it is fraud prevention, again why entertain us with this?

Some feel the need to announce when they are leaving.

You all are real losers, except those who gave me a real reply. You are so special you have to attack someone for voicing their opinions and frustrations. This is why nothing gets better. Of course it is not a credit card issue. Steam doesn't want my money. I have been with Steam for a decade and a half. I have put a lot of money into games.

Entertain us? Is that how special you all think you are? Again those who gave me a real reply, thank you.

And yes RawWwRrrm some feel the need to attack to feel special. You must really suck at gaming to focus that on forums.

Either way I don't care. My money, my way not theirs. Too bad, there where some indie games I wanted to support.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Your time on this platform or the amount of money spent makes you no more special than anyone else. So you tripped an anti-fraud mechanism that is there to protect you and everyone else. Wait the few days. Or keep throwing a hissy fit. Whichever you prefer, it won't change the cooldown.

what exactly is the issue?

If I read the Text in post 1 correct then only the community market is restricted, not buying games with the wallet money or using that card at all?

So if the goal was to buy games nothing was preventing you from that.

Wow so the OP is outraged over a market delay while they verify the payment method to avoid fraud....

Talk about outrage over nothing. Its a minor hold to prevent fraud.
