Visa putting a block on Steam transactions?

[Tanuki]

So what in the actual ♥♥♥♥ is going on with this? Did the servers get compromised again? Or is some whingy CS:GO player trying to call fraud on him buying 30 keys and not getting a single knife?

sounds like you need to contact your bank/visa not steam , that's where the block is

No, I did, thats why I'm asking what is up. They told me it was Steam specifically that was marked for suspicious charges.

As there are no other posts about it, it sounds like it's a local issue rather than a VISA issue. They may have meant your purchases have been flagged as suspicious rather than 'steam' as a whole.

If VISA were to outright block Steam and Valve, there would be millions of angry users across the globe. That's not happening as there are no other posts anywhere about it.

Your bank is populated by incompetent fools if they're telling you VISA did it.

like someone here will know what those charges were / are ?
it's your bank you need to talk to they have the records and what is flagged suspisious .
your post makes no sense , it's your bank , your credit card , talk to them

I guess it may be a local thing then. Nobody else seems to be having this problem. Thanks for doing some hunts Karr!

Also Snapjak, I think thats banks in general.

Inform your bank that you did indeed make those charges.

That they are not *suspicious* and should not be flagged as such.

your mom probably put the block , she's tired of you spending her money on stupid games .
it has nothing to do with steam it's your bank account or your moms ,

BUT MUH EDF! Also this thread can safely be locked, I actually resolved all the bank problems before I even made this thread. I was just seeing if anyone had any info on why.
