Hello!
Anyone else ever had problems with verifying new credit card with Steam? Today I'm in need to get 6 TF2 crate keys and since I recently changed my credit card I added some funds to Steam wallet with new one (completely forgot about that credit card verification thing). Of course, my account got locked out of trading and market because of the new credit card. So I pressed "Verify new funds" button to verify the card manually. But, what a twist, in that page I get "No cards need verification" message.

Sent a message about it to Steam support - got my answer almost immediately (which is amazing knowing Steam support) and, of course, didn't get anything useful out of it. Links to FAQ and message that they can't do anything about it (which I don't believe actually).

Anyone else ever had problems with this? Because this just fu*ked me over in a dern sure hardcore way...

it's not a bug ;p every time you add new payment method you get trade locked for a week - doesn't matter if you verified it - you could stole CC and verify it, yet it would still be fraudalent payment method ;) Wait a week and go on with your life ;p Consider yourself lucky you didn't lock yourself for Halloween sale ;p

Well, as I said, there is a button to verify credit card manually but, of course, it doesn't work.

For most payments money gets reserved anyway on banks end and you can revoke it anyway through bank. Then why do you need this stupid damn lock?

Yep there is.
Here's the button in market. And here is how it looks when you press it (well, atleast how it looks for me although there should be some kind of verification thingy).
