Steam Account Woes

Muffin` · 14 Sep 2007 at 18:48

Hi Guys,

So I built my new rig, downloaded and installed Steam and I find out my account is now disabled (21 days ago I last successfully logged in according to a freind). I have no idea how its been disabled and I also have no idea how to get it back, the only link I get is this which dosen't explain a lot. I've checked round and I haven't received an email from Steam. I know I haven't done anything to my account along the line of cheating, cdkey's - account selling etc.

Anyone had a similar issue and what you did to get it back?

Help very my appreciated!

"Steam Support does not automatically contact the owners of disabled accounts."

Thats why you never received an email. You will need to contact them and ask.

Had a similar thing happen to me (although after about 14 months of inactivity).

Sent them a pic of my case with CD KEY and after about 2 weeks they reactivated my account.

Thanks, did you ever get a reason?

You must have either given someone your accoutn details or someone has stolen them. They have detected use of that account by multiple people and shut it down. Sorted?
