I love stake as much as anyone but I have recently stopped playing here because one of my friends whom I know in real life got his funds locked and there was no apparent reason either apart from that he won big.

I understand all the KYC and stuff they need but blocking funds and keeping them is not a solution at all. I withdrew immediately all I had and now I am not playing here anymore until at least his problem is solved. No hate though and I am sure they must have a reason to ask for KYC but delaying and blocking his funds for weeks with no update is simply terrible.

Anyone who plays at stake, while they are great at bonuses, I feel KYC is becoming more of a necessity at this stage maybe because of the license or whatever.

Over 4 years on from when I initially joined, my account has been blocked due to not fulfilling KYC  (I have no intention to either).. Gutted to be honest but this will probably save me a few $$$ in the long run

All the best for the future Stake
