STAKE people, would you like to explain?

On December 3rd you sent out a Telegram message stating:

Earn Extra Every Week

Level 2 verified players will now receive up to 20% extra on every single weekly bonus.

Verify now to avoid missing out. This process should take less than a minute ✌️

Please note that verification is completely optional and if you choose to not verify you will not receive less. You will continue to receive the standard bonus amounts.


Today suddenly its not 20% but only 15% according to the weekly boost message:

💸 VIP weekly boost: Here
🚀 Level 2 verified: Receive 15% extra!
🚀 Level 3 verified: Receive 20% extra!
💰 VIP weekly boost total: $2,622,173!



What kind of bullshit is this?


As per my understanding, the words up to 20% means that it can be any number starting from 0 till 20 as the maximum.
You may complain if Stake said something like "you will get extra 20%" but in fact you get lower than 20%.
I do not try to defend Stake, it is based on my general understanding about the words or phrase.
I'm sure most people have the same understanding as me that the words up to does not mean as a fixed number.

LOL, nonsense.
Why would they even mention 20% if you don't get them.

That is literally what "up to" means.

Why would they say "up to" if they were sure you everyone would get 20%?

Maybe one the promotions team wanted to do 20% but only got approved for 15%.  Maybe they were waiting to see how many people verified before deciding the final number.  Maybe they were pulling a bait and switch, although I doubt they would over 5%.

But regardless, if you say a number is going to be "up to" 20, and then the number ends up being 15, then your initial statement is not false.  Ask a 5 year old to explain it to you if you still don't understand.
