Never had a problem with Stake.com from the start up until now. It's not just because I am wearing their signature but because I also gamble there.
I also liked Stake for quite some time, Stake and Sportsbet were my top choices, but then I switched completely to Sportsbet because I like it more for features and design. But recently I’ve seen a lot of bad reviews on Stake, especially regarding withdrawal and support, are those fake? Have you experienced anything like that lately?But I did research on how to do it, just in case something goes wrong. They do have live support link in their website. Pop up chat. (like facebook messenger)
If that won't work, they also have a forum. https://forum.stake.com/board/8-support/
About the bad reviews. That always happen, it's just the environment of business. I do like Sportsbet too with their wide options and features.
