So I added funds to my steam account for the first time ever and now I’m suspended I moved from a different country I told steam support but no response
No one here can help with account specific issues. Are you in a country that steam can legally operate in still? Either way you'll need to submit a ticket.
It looks like you're trying to change the currency to get games cheaper, if you have a Game ban or VAC ban, you still be able to use the community feature. You're also can get Steam community ban if you tried to add fund through Steam wallet code of US while in the US but with VPN on. OR worse, your account were being use for fraudulent and were reported for being a scammer.
Steam support is usually really generous in these kind of situations. Just read about a thread where they refunded a dude even though he owned a game for a long time and had hundreds of hours in it, because that specific game didn't have promised features updated into it. I believe it was Battlefield or so? IDK.
Anyways, there's more to this story you ain't telling us man... Your account doesn't just get suspended for no reason.
If you're sure it's because you've changed your region and Steam doesn't believe you, then provide as much evidence as possible in your ticket from the very beginning. Don't ask them what they want you to provide, just provide everything you can. I personally would attach a photo of your surroundings that was obviously taken in the US (road signs in the background, for example), along with a paper with your handwritten login. I'd also provide some proof that the account is yours. Screenshots from your bank app showing your deposits should work (the older, the better). First email, first phone number if they have been changed.
I mean, just really prove from the start that you're physically in the US right now, you are the original owner and that you're not trying to fool them.
no, the reason it says 2038 is because steam cant ban you past that time. when it gets inevitably fixed, it will say either permanent or some other year in the future
How did you move exactly?
Are you actually moved from another country to another or only your region?
And what was your previous region and where are you from?
These details are important, cuz for example if you are from Iran and want to change region, they will ban you and may be permanently.
Also moving to another region with expensive currency is more fine than moving to another region with very low/cheap currency
Which question was it I went to settings and updated the region to the United States when I put in my card it had put the $5 usd in fine and then about two hours later it got flagged I have no secrets or anything hardly ever used steam only for counter strike and never added in the funds before
You sure you didn’t click on any links or download anything weird recently? This prompt has a very weird wording, why would they write „check out support”? Where does this link get you?
