Although Steam have no problem with VPN we do not have an official word on how they feel about this method or how the credit card companies feel about it. Many people have been using this method without problems or consequences. Use at your own risk.
The Tutorial
This works with all payment methods including paypal. 1. First go to the US http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=us or UKhttp://store.steampowered.com/?cc=uksteam store
2. Log in to your account
3. Add the games you want to your cart and go to checkout
4. For the UK steam store just change your country to UK and Click Purchase. THATS IT your done.
5. For the US store you have to add one number to your postcode, change your country to United States and choose a state from a drop down menu. And again Thats IT. 6. Enjoy your Cheaper, uncensored or unbanned game.
Remember to ALWAYS check UK and US steam store before buying from the Australian store.
Please rate my tutorial and tell me if I’ve made a mistake or forgotten something.
