UK - Online Safety Act (OSA) - Access to 'adult' and 'mature' content

I am having problems finding adult games in the search engine in the Steam Store. The search tells me that a given number of titles have been excluded from the hitlist but I'm not allowed to see them or get access to them.

It gives me a link to edit my store preferences but the store preferences are already set to allow adult content.

I have had an account for a number of years and the Steam support page states that, provided that I have a valid credit card (or presumably a debit card) stored on the system, it is assumed,for the purposes of the OSA, that I am over 18.

I have a Visa prepaid debit card which allows me to transfer funds to my Steam wallet - Visa and Mastercard credit and debit cards won't allow it.

As I have said above, I have ticked the boxed for mature content in the 'store preferences' but I am still unable to find 'adult' content.

What am I doing wrong? Has Mary Whitehouse finally won from the grave??

You need a credit card.

It has to be a credit card. Debit cards are not accepted as you can get one from the age of 16.

What are you on about? You can add funds to your wallet using a normal credit or debit card. I've done it myself many times over the years.

Ok everyone. Thank you.

I have used my debit card to pay for games on Steam for donkey's years and I couldn't figure out how or why it wouldn't work.

In the UK no-one under the age of 16 is competent to sign a contract so I couldn't see how a person under 18 could have a debit card (I figured there must be some sort of contract involved).

It does mean that I have to do a Lazarus on one of my credit cards but needs must when the Devil drives.

You can have a debit card from age 11+ in the UK.

Many banks offer accounts for children aged 11 and over, which come with a debit card. A parent or guardian will usually need to apply for the account on their behalf and may also need to be an existing customer with the bank.

So it's the parents who bear the liability of the contract. That's makes sense. I was a tax litigator (not a lawyer) but my legal knowledge is limited to the relevant areas of law.
