Can I buy 1st subscription from steam account and credit card together?
I tried, but it would only deduct money from my card :(

yes. you can simply load up the money on Steam first, then buy 1st.

to do that click on the top right on your name and go on Account details.

then just add money to steam, for example if you already have 5€ on Steam just add 10 with the card, you will have 15€ and be able to buy it with just the money on Steam.

but usually it should automatically use the money on Steam first and make the card price cheaper by that amount, so not sure what you are doing wrong in the first place.

but anyway what i said can still be used as a work around.

It only wants to deduct it from my card, there is no option for steam wallet :(

Now I'm watching

Subscriptions
Renewing subscriptions are billed regularly to your registered credit card. The amount shown will be deducted each billing cycle.

If you remove all other payment methods, you can pay for your subscription directly from your Steam wallet.

That is the way I normally do it, you need to set your credit card up, and when the pay option shows it should give you the option to change from steam wallet to credit card.

Make sure that steam overlay is active for the game, if it already is then switch it off re-start steam, then re-enable it, exit steam again and try again, also make sure that the account is not logged in on another computer at the same time that will stop it working, even if you are not playing anything having the same account logged in on multiple pc/laptops will stop things working, found that out the hard way when trying to renew my 1st, one account went through no issue, the second simply would not renew, then noticed my laptop was logged in on the second account.

It gives me no other option. He just wants to withdraw it from my card anyway, I have no choice. I have some money in my steam account and would like to spend it.

it should or at least for me it defaults to steam wallet payment, if it dose not, you should be able to change it when selecting the payment method, if not then your best bet is to contact steam support about it, especially if you have money in your steam wallet but it will not let you select it, there again it may not accept a payment method that does not have the full amount on it for 1st sub that is always a possibility.

This is an issue you should contact Steam Support for. Posting on the forums won't get you anywhere.

this is not a Bethesda issue though. . . it is just how steam processes Subscriptions. . .
