I was lucky enough to be able to order the Steam Frame 256GB version around 3 weeks ago to deliver to France.

Here is what happened since then :

  • a first package was sent to me, and I wasn’t able to be there for the delivery, so I asked for it to be delivered to a pick-up point near me; it was supposedly delivered on Monday 5th of October

  • when I went there, on Monday evening, they told me that GLS never went there on Monday, and to try and contact them, which I did immediately. GLS told me they would look into it, but to get in contact with Valve so that they could launch an inquiry on their side. So I contacted Valve, telling them about the issue.

  • on Tuesday (6/10), GLS told me to go to another pick-up location, which I did; spoiler alert : it wasn’t there

I’ll go quickly over the next steps : I went back to the first shop, contacted GLS, contacted Valve, and finally Valve told me they would send me another package.

This Monday (12/10), I received a mail telling me that a package would be delivered at my home on Tuesday. I wasn’t able to be there, but was able to postpone it to Wednesday.

So, on Wednesday, I waited all day for the package (despite it being an issue for my work), and at around noon, the page said “Following your instructions, package will be delivered to this pick-up location”, out of nowhere.

I immediately called GLS, who told me they couldn’t do anything about it.

And later that evening, it said “delivered to pick-up location C”.

The next day, I went there, and they told me that “they don’t work with GLS anymore”…

I immediately contacted GLS, who of course had no idea what this was about and told me to get back there.

I reached out to Valve, but still no information.

This morning, I went to all 16 GLS pick-up locations near me, asking each of them if they had my package, and (of course none of them had it), but also 3 of them told me that they didn’t work for GLS anymore (despite being referenced on their website) and one telling me “I haven’t seen GLS for a month”

I don’t know why I’m writing all of this, maybe because I hope Valve looks at this community ?

Does anybody else had the same issue with GLS ?

I am very disappointed by all this, and sincerely hope Valve can help; I tried everything with GLS directly, called them 7 times over 2 weeks, but each time they told me they can’t do anything (they even told me “we can’t contact the delivery driver, he doesn’t have a phone”…)

I would like Valve to escalate the situation but they don’t seem to answer anymore

    That’s what I’m starting to believe yes

    Because on the local after market, a lot of steam frames have appeared recently
