    @TwitchSupport some of my discord connections are missing and no matter what I try I cannot get them to work therefore I have no roles. Can you assist? Thank You.

  • im_charrr char (@im_charrr) reported

    hey @TwitchSupport I still don’t have my recap as a content creator, only the viewer one! Any help?

  • DanielTsosie Daniel Tsosie (@DanielTsosie) reported

    @TwitchSupport Why can't this be accessed on the site if we weren't opted in? Terrible user experience.

  • MaXXKiDLive MAXXKIDLIVE (@MaXXKiDLive) reported

    Anyone else receiving ads on the @twitch channels they subscribe to? I thought we paid a premium to not miss a second of our favorite streamers... please fix @twitchsupport!

    @TwitchSupport Hi. I am so so so sorry for all this confusion. I figured out my mistake. I got my number set up with my account. Thank you so much for your help

  • LinaRikuhara LinaRKH (@LinaRikuhara) reported

    @Twitch Don't know if I want to be associated to a brand that shows little to no interest to their small creators. Before throwing merch at us, answer this: how are you going to fix the #TwitchRecap issue ? Plenty of poeple gave great ideas in the @TwitchSupport Tweet. Read, choose, fix.

  • xXH0neyBadgrXx Brandon (@xXH0neyBadgrXx) reported

    @TwitchSupport my stream keeps "an error has occurred" and then showing as offline. Whats the issue? Everything on my end is performing perfectly as it should.

  • Cayleesii Candy Cay-n ☃️ (@Cayleesii) reported

    @TwitchSupport Nice....well thanks for nothing then lol. I didn't even know marketing emails were a thing let alone I had them off? I got my recap last year no issue but nah that's cool blame that it was the marketing email's issue so ya don't get mobbed. 🙄 Meanwhile everyone still mad.

  • HeGotThis_ HeGotThis (@HeGotThis_) reported

    @TwitchSupport It's soo nice that if i dont follow Twitter to help me turn my Twitch marketing email well i wont receive my Twitch recap i dont know why they dont got a option to resend them we got soo much people in here with that problem im Sadge now i wont receive mine after this big year

  • suzalooza_jpg suza (@suzalooza_jpg) reported

    @TwitchSupport That’s what I got from the twitch support email too. But the only other account that I have, doesn’t have a phone number linked to it. And when I tried to add my number, I got that same error. So I’m just confused.

  • HeGotThis_ HeGotThis (@HeGotThis_) reported

    @TwitchSupport It's soo nice that if i dont follow Twitter to help me turn my Twitch marketing email well i wont receive my Twitch recap i dont know why they dont got a option to resend them we got soo much people in here with that problem

  • gracebelkaid Grace Belkaid (@gracebelkaid) reported

    @TwitchSupport JUST SEND THEM TO EVERYONE PLEASE MAN No changes made and I got all previous recaps, no problem with them u.u I'm so pissed off...

  • SashenkaKun Sashenka (@SashenkaKun) reported

    @TwitchSupport how was i able to get a recap no problem last year but this year because i didn't dig down in the *** end of my notifications settings i don't get one????????? and somehow you're just like "ope hands tied" you designed it. you can literally fix it yourselves

  • BEZOIRO Gab (@BEZOIRO) reported

    @TwitchSupport Due to some bug in the twitch application, the void da of all Streamers have the chat frozen and it doesn't unfreeze. I've tried in every way to solve this problem with tips that I researched and among others, but nothing solves. Ads have a lot but a good service.

  • kingkevin108 Kingkevin (@kingkevin108) reported

    @TwitchSupport What do you mean you're unable to manually re-send recaps?? You sent the first round, just send it again?? Or even better, do it through Twitch itself, send it through the Drops program or something! This isn't difficult to fix

  • allterano allterano (@allterano) reported

    @TwitchSupport I have marketing on and didn't receive this years recap. I received last years no problem.

  • hastygloom hasty (@hastygloom) reported

    Welp, I never got a recap even though my marketing emails are on @TwitchSupport can we maybe fix this

  • EnslavedJackal Luca but awooga (@EnslavedJackal) reported

    @TwitchSupport A: It shouldn't have to be an opt in thing anyways? From my understanding it had always been naturally given to you (and hell most apps and even your own website give regular information over the streams people have so I don't see how it was an issue to incorporate it)

  • Ezzydesu Ezzy 🍂🍃 (@Ezzydesu) reported

    @TwitchSupport This is complete nonsense because I made sure I was opted in (I was already opted in before checking) and I did get my streamer recap, but not my viewer one. This seems to be an issue at your end, not ours.

  • EpicNNG EpicNNG (@EpicNNG) reported

    Twitch just killed my stream almost entirely. It's actually just becoming ******* sad at this point. @TwitchSupport nice to see you working hard to fix these issu- oh wait.

  • BriannaHoney4 brianna honey ☁️📸 (@BriannaHoney4) reported

  • nxmirr Mir🖤 (@nxmirr) reported

    @TwitchSupport i need some help!

  • DixonYamouf Dixon 🛩 LOST LANDS 🦖 (@DixonYamouf) reported

    @TwitchSupport @runspeeder25 This is one of your worst decisions. You really think this is the hill to die on? Why ******** would we keep watching twitch if you don't feel rewarded without subbing to ******* advertisements.

  • tlou_msmsmsm erik c (@tlou_msmsmsm) reported

    @hasanthehun @TwitchSupport FIX THIS

  • LadyTrishharas Ms. Trish (@LadyTrishharas) reported

  • Chocolate_Lab7 Kris (@Chocolate_Lab7) reported

    @TwitchSupport I have an issue with this. The emails are begind a setting that's turned off by default and twitch decides to tell users on Twitter?? I'm sure I'm not the only one who would've liked their recap but doesn't use Twitter much.

  • Cl1nkex Clinkex (@Cl1nkex) reported

  • epdo98 Loome (@epdo98) reported

    @TwitchSupport Hey um... there seems to be a problem with the Soundtrack by Twitch application. Once installed, it only loads up to 100% and does nothing else. It won't open, nothing. It doesn't even show up in the task manager. Several people have had the same problem...
