A digital distribution service owned by Valve Corporation. Originally created to distribute Valve's own games, Steam has since become the de facto standard for digital distribution of PC games.
My creditcard keeps getting declined, I've also heard rumors that others may have the same problem. I have the correct billingdetails and have sufficient cash to make the transfer. Has anyone had problems buying games the last few hours?
This happened to me before - it wasn't my credit card, it was Valve automatically declining purchases to prevent fraud. I emailed support and they lifted all restrictions on my Steam account, allowing me to purchase as many copies of as many games as I wanted.

Well, it's working now. Must have been a hick-up from their side. The steamservers were being hammered yesterday.
I am struggling to buy any game from them. There has been an internal error initializing your transaction. Please contact support for assistance. I did trying eeverything any possible payement from the client and from the web. Terrible Crap.
@Zenwork: Email support, dude. They're very good about getting this sort of thing resolved. If you do that and every other avenue fails, shoot me a PM. I know a guy.
Depends on your bank. I have had mine blocked after steam purchases because they consider online purchases to be fraudulent. Steam support should have to tell you, and simply going down to your bank should be enough to get it unblocked.
