    I purchased a Steam Gift card from this website. The code I received was invalid. I brought this to the attention of the website support through email/ ticket. They refused to answer for 72 hours, only replying with an AI response. I sent proof that the card was invalid. They denied replacing.

    I was browsing the web on Cyber Monday holiday because I needed 12 months of Xbox Live Gold membership to play multiplayer games online. ****** had exactly what I wanted and, on sale $43.09. I read over the seller's description and, I purchased what I exactly wanted for $43.09. CDkeys emailed me a link detailing how I can get my code redeemed for 12 months of Xbox Live Gold. I followed the prompts and, noticed later that they sent me 1 code for 12 months of Xbox gamepads and, when I prompted them to send the other code for my 12 months of Xbox Live Gold. They're not responding to my I'm original purchase or not answering my additional requests they sent me one inexcusable email and, I replied back but no answer.

    This morning I made a purchase with this company (Order#**********) that was not received as advertised. The initial product I purchased is not the one received, then was told that I would have to wait to see if the issue can be resolved. They took my money and did NOT give me the product that I paid for and have denied me for refunding. Its a very fraudulent business from what Im experiencing.

    Hi, I just want to let everyone know about my first issue with CDKeys, I have purchased over 50 Steam games from CDKeys, and have never had a problem with CDKey codes until now. I had a problem with a game under ************************************************** Steam app stated the activation game code had been used already. I know it's only ten dollars but it's just now right to treat long time customers *** new customers this way. CDKeys states a garntee if the issue is on CDKeys part they will refund or give you another code for the desired game. Just a fyi i did not ask for my money back, just wanted a working activation code. For my troubles I have been given run arounds by ****** staff and I had been in contact with more than one ****** ***resentative. My final step in my run aroun CDkeys journey that I entertained from CDKeys was contacting Steam as CDKeys had requested, one of so far 5 steps assigned to me by CDKeys for a under ten dollar game. The Steam *** that answered my email with all information I had included, including Steam code. Stated the code does not work because one possibility is it may be stolen. I am at a loss of words. I do not know how to post pictures of conversations, especially share offical Steam pics of email in regards to the not working code from CDKeys on reddit yet. I can't believe ****** treat customers like they are liars and it does not matter how faithful of a past customer you are or were CDKeys does not care, check out CDKeys BBB rating, its so bad its sad, so please be aware of CDKeys, and maybe choose another source for your code needs. ****** definitely works but if you have a issue the customer support at ****** will do everything in their power to not honor their promise.

    I purchased a game activation key from CDKeys.com website. I activated the key using web browser and ********* Game Software URL. The game was purchased to be used on a PC. I opened the game software and it prompted me to insert a game disk. I tried multiple methods to correct the issue. I contacted ****** support and requested assistance. The recommended multiple methods to correct the issue and provided guidance. I tried their guidance and the issue still did not correct. The software still prompted me to insert game disk. I provided screen shots and responses to them. I advised the support *** that the activation key is clearly linked to a game disk sold through a third party vendor. I advised them the key provided was suspect and the seller sent me a photo of the key and this is not normal procedure for purchasing electronic software through their website. The final answer from ****** support was to contact *********. This is unsatisfactory. I've also filed a fraud complaint with my credit card company.

    Back in November 2023 CDKeyes took $485 from my debit card. I don't know who this company is but found out that they are a gaming company. I am a 73 yr old still taking care of my 100 yr old mother and I am not a gamer. I turned it over to my bank ******************* and they put the $485 back in my account. They informed me on 1/5/2024 that they sided with the seller so they will be taking the $485 out of my account. I don't under stand their decision and can not get anyone to call me back.
