Hey everyone,

I've been with Stake since 2020 and made it to Diamond level. I've always bet big and never complained, even though I mostly lose. But last week, I finally won. I bet on lots of live sports like soccer in Bundesliga and Premier League, making 20-30 bets with odds from 1.10 to 2.5, and ended up winning about $20k.

But then, I tried to place a $300 bet on a big soccer game and got denied. Suddenly, I can't bet the $1,000 to $10,000 I used to. It's strange because I've lost a lot of money there. I asked my VIP manager, Steve, why my limits were cut, and he said he'd check but nothing changed. They won't let me bet like before.

I looked at my stats and saw I'm down $220k. So, after one good week, they limit how much I can bet. It doesn't seem right to let me lose all this time and then restrict me when I finally win. I understand limiting winners but doing this to someone who's lost a lot feels wrong.

Customer service didn't help, just told me to bet less and brushed me off. Is this how they treat someone who's been loyal and lost over $220k in 4 years? I think it's important you all know how they treat players here. If you start winning, they might just cut you off.

Take care.
