You bought a 4090, surely you can afford to buy a game without resorting to VPN Pffchh

You need a VPN, otherwise Steam doesn't detect your region. You only need to use it once, once you're switched to Uncle Diego then you can pay without VPN etc. You need MC as Steam only allows you to switch with a "regional" payment method, for which the MC is accepted.


Thanks! MC doesnt have to be from Uncle Diegoland?


Nope, I use my Polish MC debit card with no problems.


Thanks! Did the trick with Hola extension (easier to remove afterwards) + Curve MC.

It's probably because you tried to use those cards too many times Laughing

Not laughing though, since the same might happen to anyone who's doing this. After all we are breaking Steam's TOS. Just because they've been fairly lenient so far doesn't mean that will last.

I wanted to make it even more convenient by paying with my cc instead of selling keys... but somehow I was able to pay with my Visa back in Feb so let's see if I can use this not to get perma banned by playing dumb Razz still waiting for support reply Very Happy

What does perma ban entail?
can you access your games?
can you login at all?
guess you cant buy any new games atm

I can login and play. Cannot buy, activate and do family sharing. In this case by perma I mean that it would stay like that and I cannot grow my e-pen anymore Very Happy not sure of you can get completely banned from your account as in not able to login.

Steam doesn't care until it does.

They won't catch every person using this method out of their tens of millions active users, but when they do you're fucked.

I think his biggest problem was using a VPN and a diego address, but only Steam knows what raised the flag Very Happy

That's both unfortunate and Everything Went Better Than Expected at the same time, but anything is better than a permanent ban so I'd definitely look at the glass half full (also considering that Diego's prices aren't what they used to be). Animo, compaƱero Konkol!

AAA's have mostly dropped regional pricing altogether (Valve's suggestion for RE4 3800ARS, not over 12000 Laughing), AA's and indies still usually remain cheaper.

And some smaller devs have not updated their prices (bought v rising, core keeper and wolcen recently, all of them ~150 ars, 90% cheaper than pln price), neither did some bigger ones like Larian ( BG 3 is 2200 ars / 42 PLN. konkol would have to pay 199 pln now ). And even if they did it's usually the 1000-1500 ars price range, which is much more bearable now than 5 years ago, so not rocking the boat and staying in diego or kebabland is still preferable.
