Limited Account, but i'm sure i spent more than $5
I rarely login nowadays but last steam autumn sale i noticed my account became limited. I'm pretty sure i spent more than $5. i mean, i bought God Eater 2 Rage Burst and some cheaper games with this account. God Eater 2 Rage Burst alone, although discounted, was around $19 or $20. It's still on my purchase history.
I spent money to gain access to purchase and selling items on steam market,I even sold and bought items from steam market. This account shouldn't be limited at that time. Is there any explanation to why my account is limited now?
Steam support even displayed "Amount Spent on Steam: $0.95 / $5.00 USD".

Did you buy them on Steam? Or activate them on Steam or received them as a gift? Because the latter won't count.

Thank you for your reply. The games are displayed as "Steam Store" in the link you provided. All the games in my library were directly bought on steam.

It has to be within a certain time frame for the purchase to still count. Not JUST 5 dollars on Steam once ever.

Thanks for your reply. I read steam support article again and it doesn't say anything like that. if that's really the case i hope they include the information in the FAQs.

The problem is that you once were limited, managed to sell stuff on the market and then used that to buy all those games.

What you need to do is think about how much money have you spend on Steam that wasn't in Steam already.

Go here: https://store.steampowered.com/account/history/
Find all the purchases that doesn't say "wallet" under type.

For example, I have a purchase that's mostly wallet and it looks like this:

Purchase
10,17€ Wallet
3,22€ Card

Only the thing that isn't from wallet counts here.

This used to be less confusing before since you could not ever use market before like this but now you can loose the limit and it gets more confusing.

I see.. that explains the $0.95
Thank you for your help and reply
