Refunding wallet to card.

[BondageKat]

Couldn't you technically buy a game with both your steam wallet and credit card and then refund the game to your credit card and get all of your steam wallet funds on your card???

[wuddih]

no. what was from wallet will go back to wallet.

Steam is not a bank.

[Cathulhu]

Store credit is not money anyway.

[J4MESOX4D]

Steam wallet funds are not legal tender.

Just imagine someone having $999 in wallet funds from scammed items and $1 on their debit card and then buying a Valve Index. They then opt to instantly refund and put the whole amount of $1000 on their card. That's EZ money laundering.

No.

How this works I give you example.
- Game Assassin Creed as an example for $10
- Wallet has $5
- Paid the rest with credit card of $5
You wanted a refund, you're given two options:
A) Refund the whole $10 to Steam wallet.
B) Refund to back to how you paid such as credit card, what happens is the $5 you used from Steam wallet will refund back to your Steam wallet, and the other $5 you paid with credit card goes back to your credit card, and that's about it.

That's more then enough explain to you, and clear as possibe as well, there no misunderstanding either, it's either A), or B) for choice of how you want to be refunded, you can't change the amount how much you want to be refunded either.

i guessed that. i accidentally refunded to my wallet and not my moms credit card so now i'm forced to look for a new game to get so i don't have $30 sitting in my steam wallet that i will probably use for csgo gambling.

Your odds of logging in from 3rd party sites that has nothing to do with Steam have a greater chance of your account getting hijacked, as most cases people that come crying/whining on the forum is due to them signing in to phising sites, and normally found on gambing sites as well being the most common places. Viewing history of Steam forum will provide far enough proof behind this really as most cases relates to people having the gambing sites in their display names. Just giving you heads up so you're well aware of these things.

There is a Ubisoft sale going on ATM, as well other games, maybe check your wishlist, something, or save the $30 for later time, and just wait for game you really wanted to go on sale.

Just login to your account that had the games?

Your steam games are permanently tied to the account they were bought on, so... log in to the correct Steam account. Redownload them.

You said you paid by your mom credit card, so it goes back to your mom credit card.

No, the money went to their wallet. Courtesy aside don't expect it again, but ...

That the thing, if the money was originally wallet funds like he got a Steam gift card, or someone gifted him wallet funds, or made the wallet funds from the market place, those funds will never have any options, but to select Steam wallet for refund, like the example I posted previously in my older Post, if he used wallet funds, to buy a game then there no option to cash out those funds ever.

It's only if he used like bank transfer, or credit card that was directly related to his account that the specific funds can be refunded back exactly how he paid in the first place if from BT, or CC, in his case he said he used his mom credit card, so it was only possible for him to get that option.

Now sometimes support won't do the same refunds twice such as you choose to refund to Steam wallet, but really wanted to refund back to BT/CC, they may deny that request.
