if you have issues with a gift card you purchased, this is between you and that seller
there may be limits on how many cards you can redeem during a set period of time
Digitally gifted funds will auto convert using current conversion rates.
Sorry for no tl;Dr in my wall of text, but I explained in detail that I have tried in my currency as well. It worked at first and then stopped working while giving the same error.
I've also used USD cards to fund my account for years, and even the redeem page says that a card in a different currency will be converted to your account's currency so I think your info might be outdated on that. Regardless, I don't see why it would stop me from using cards in my own currency even if that was the issue.
What exactly would the limits be? That should be clearly and visibly stated to avoid situations like this if that is the case.
They're all digital in my case, which is why I've never had a problem redeeming the USD cards. I have no Idea why neither COP or USD is working now but the other guy mentioned there might be limits on how many cards can be redeemed in a given amount of time.
Of course, it would be great if Steam support would have just said that in any of the 3 tickets I've had created and immediately closed about this issue instead of suggesting it's a typo while totally ignoring my actual problem. Does anyone know the card limit per amount of time or is just an arbitrary Steam secret?
That sounds fair, but I did try redeeming the other codes after a day or two before purchasing more and they still didn't work. It had definitely been 24+ hours at that point. Not sure what happened there.
May I ask where you got that info? I didn't see anything mentioning it on Steam or hear it from support, but would have been nice to know of that ahead of time.
If that was the case, is there a way to find out and/or appeal it? The canned responses from support aren't really helping, and if that's what's going on I'd like to be informed.
If so, then Steam may assume they are giving you gift cards to 'pay' for the games.
No, I don't gift games to anyone.
What do you mean by still not redeeming the USD cards? Are they just permanently unusable now?
That is very strange then, because I hadn't redeemed any cards or keys within 24h before trying to use the most recent ones. If there is a cooldown, it must be significantly longer than an hour - I have tried all the codes multiple times over the last few days and they always give the same error.
