I use Google Voice for all my mobile needs. I give it out to every service that asks for my mobile number, and then, if they give it out to spammers, I can easily filter them out.

But I can't use my GV number for Twitch - it reports "only mobile phone numbers may be used".

I do not give out the number that goes to my SIM card. It's not necessarily going to be the same number if I switch providers, and literally every text and call I get through it and not GV is spam, because I never give it out.

Since people are starting to use "verified accounts only" on their chats, this has suddenly gone from "that's annoying" to "this is preventing me from participating in communities". And I don't think the streamers are wrong for using the filter, because I've watched what happens if they don't, so I'm not going to try and convince them to change it.

Perhaps GV allows you to get new numbers too easily, and all the other services I've used it with such as [checks notes] Amazon Web Services are inundated with people using fake GV numbers.

But I don't think that's the case, presently.

EN: I want every change to contract to be sent to the email address associated with the Affiliate / Partner account. For example, when an e-mail or other data has been changed in the contract, information should be sent to the e-mail assigned to the account. Streamers are losing money through data leaks, as I am because someone has changed my email to make a payment and Twitch is not willing to do anything about it or give me my money back.

PL: Chcę, aby każda zmiana w umowie była wysyłana na adres e-mail przypisany do konta Towarzysza/Partnera. Na przykład gdy e-mail lub inne dane zostały zmienione w umowie to powinna zostać wysłana informacja na e-mail przypisany do konta. Streamerzy tracą pieniądze przez wycieki danych, tak jak ja, ponieważ ktoś zmienił mój e-mail w celu dokonania płatności, a Twitch nie chce nic z tym zrobić ani oddać mi pieniędzy.

So this is my MAIN computing device, this is MY computer, why can I only sign on for 30 days on MY computer? There should be a check list for "permanent" and "temporary" instead of "30-days" because that's just kind of ignorant. I don't want to have to clear myself every 30 days just because I want 2-step verification, I just don't want any OTHER computers to sign in as me and want to be notified when any OTHER devices try to sign in as me, not me, on my laptop, signing in every freaking month because you can't keep me signed in for whatever reason.

I have found a username that appears to be available but is blocked within your system due to an error.

The error shown is: "This user name may be offensive and is not allowed."

I have attempted to report this several times since October and have been met with the same policies regarding recycling and name changes when it does not apply to this situation.

If there is one name that is incorrectly being caught in your filter I'd assume other users may have this problem as well. If a username IS available and IS appropriate for use then I believe there should be a way to say so.

Currently Twitch denies streamers who are in some way related to the Cannabis industry from being Partnership as the use of cannabis isn't acceptable for the Partnership programme.
With Cannabis legal in most states and the TOS enforcing that these streamers who are consuming cannabis are in a legal state (where it may be recreational or medicinal) it seems discriminatory to prevent these streamers from being partnered for this sole reason, especially since a lot of larger streamers who smoke have been given partner despite them smoking (I'd assume for the sheer reason that they have a large following)

Honestly think the double standards today are crazy, denying a streamer from becoming partner solely due to their cannabis use despite having partnered hot tub streamers who are smoking weed in a hot tub in a bikini is madness and hope that you will have a review of how you handle this defective system.

In my opinion, smaller streamers who are affiliated with cannabis should not be denied partner for the sole reason of smoking cannabis and instead should be given valid reasons as to why they are refused partner.
