Bitcoin Forum

I had an account (which is closed) on Stake.com where I was Platinum 3 and am at 83% to Platinum IV and at that time I had no idea that you could get VIP benefits from a VIP Host something I did not know anything about . I have wasted a lot that time.

I have searched for articles online and found this here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5365985

Here, the user has the opportunity to withdraw funds from their account even if the account was closed.

I therefore want to address this in my post and hope the Stake.com administration reads this and provides feedback.

The reason I am addressing this now is that I think about this all the time and I have the right to receive VIP benefits like other users. There is money I have gambled and am entitled to these !!

^ You can post it there on their ANN thread regarding your problem if you want to address it to their administration or directly send PM to Stunna their forum representative. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=81292.
I don't know what happen to this casino, lately, there is a thread that appreciated stake and having a comparison to bitsler and now, stake again has an issue. Have this issue have not solved? I saw the thread has a mark of (SOLVED).

This is still not the reason why you are addressing this publicly rather than through their customer support. Have you even tried to contact them?

Secondly, as DoublerHunter pointed out, Stake.com has an official thread on this forum. You would have a better chance of getting an answer from their representative there.

You cannot blame the site for not doing your research to be honest. I feel that they would help you out though since you clearly wagered a lot on their site over time. Stake usually takes good care of their VIPs based on what I observed.

As some of the posters above mentioned, keep trying to contact their team on their site and their primary thread in this forum.

Wrong. He was actually whining and complaining about Bitsler while praising Stake heavily on that thread. He created another thread regarding the same topic very recently.

Recently there was a thread  created comparing Stake and Bistler but obviously the OP is attacking Bistler , then there is another thread that put cases in bistler but answered already by the team and seems like settled already.

Now here it is, a thread against Stake, what is this? a counter attack as the posts all comes from Newbies?
i don't know what's behind this but i believe that both casinos are legit and trustworthy , had been proven for long time here in bitcointalk and even outside the forum.

Im not a fan of stake but saying he had no clue about VIP benefits is bullshit.

Every time you get a new VIP level the support contacts you via live chat and gives you a bonus.

So, saying he doesn't know about this makes 0 sense.

I have been using stake.com for a while now but am not a regular user I just go there place my bet and pay little attention to how the site ranking works, but I will advise you to contact stake admin on this forum to know what exactly happens that you did not get VIP rank.

This situation seems quite strange to me as well. Information about bonuses is always very visible. Perhaps, however, it is about other benefits that the OP did not use.
Either way, this situation must be considered individually by the Administration.
On the other hand, we do not know why his account is inactive.

Are you sure? because Stake will contact you once you achieved a VIP category or close to that , either In Chat or In Email (I believe though i never achieved being VIP lol) so why does it happen that you don't have idea of your privileges ?
There is something missing in your story mate , better to Dig deeper and let us know what really happens here.
Stake support is 100% accurate , they can give answer quickly if OP did contact them about this issue instead of addressing here.
there is something  in Intention OP why bring this here directly .

I think these words are the key to this whole situation:


I don't know why OP didn't use VIP bonuses, but I think his post is simply meant to make his case public. Probably the account has been closed for some negative reason and by talking about it publicly he wants to exert pressure on Stake to  despite the blockage, his bonuses will be used anyway.

Stake keeps their Name on top of every gambling site together with Primedice , they will never let issues like OP's post to make their name questionable .
I guess there are no constant communication in OP's part towards the support so this happens.

PM Stunna , he will surely address this issue .

do the support also inform the gambler about VIP hosting? because if the support only contacts you to give you a bonus for reaching a new VIP it's possible that support never mentioned anything about the VIP hosting(which is what OP mentioned in his post).

just do what DoublerHunter suggested since stunna does respond to issues being posted on their thread and scam accusation board.

The fact that OP created this thread definitely shows that there is a communication problem between him and Stake.com.
I'm just saying that we don't know the reason why his account is inactive. If he blocked it himself, then I think there shouldn't be  problem with getting along. However, if it has been blocked for a policy violation, it can be a much more difficult situation.

If he intentionally decline the use of benefits then why he is here trying to Ruin one good gambling site reputation? and also OP seems to be a Newly created account that try to shout out the name of Stake by the reason that we don't really know.

There is a ticket that can be filed as stake support is always there to give answer , and also He can directly PM the Admin here in forum for quick response but instead?  he create this thread and quoting another existing thread about Steak issue, this seems to be strategically delivered and not really an newbie case.
Then Maybe He missed the chance of directly communicating because he did not mentioned here in His thread .

Yes support will inform you once you are reaching the minimum level to have VIP host.
Based on my experience when I reached Platinum 1 few years ago IIRC, support informed me about who is the assigned VIP host for my account.
I have no idea how OP can claim that he did not receive any VIP host or VIP benefits.
The best option to do by OP is by asking live support to check his account, and support will be able to check the history of the account related to the VIP benefits.

The question is, is it really that he would like to be able to use the remaining bonuses, or if this thread was created just to damage the opinion of Stakes.com
I think the situation would be clearer if the OP would said why his account was blocked.

I am agree with you op is like complaining his/her account in Stake.com and make a thread here in gambling discussion instead of comemnting the ann thread of stakes.com so that the administrator or the owner of that casino must be easy to catch his/her attention.





OP try to visit their ann thread so that stake.com casino facilitator will take an action about your complain.

And I would like to add if you are betting a big amount of money and you spend a lot of time in one casino, you should at least check all the benefits and their VIP rewards, on one casino I'm playing your rank is being displayed along with your profile and there's always a newsletter about VIP rewards, I wonder how these things escaped your attention, anyway I hope the support this issue in a fair manner.

When you are a VIP on any casino, you have more privilege than the regular gamblers and if you have a problem, the site will take care of your problem and solve it as soon as possible. Unless you did a cheat on their site, even if you have a badge VIP, they will not let you get your money because of a cheat. But if you tell an honest story to them, I am sure they will help you and solve your case. You can ask on their ANN, send a ticket to them or even PM'ing @OP who manage their thread so they can be aware of your case and check it and solve it.

Pretty sure it was your fault for not knowing it? I mean I don't think stake is withholding information of their VIP benefits to their users right? I mean that'd probably end up in a loss for them in the long term, and they might as well just remove the VIP benefits in the end.

The issue was resolved as you can see in the title, I don't think that should even be presented as proof of stake is a bad casino, just calm down and contact their customer support or their thread here and converse properly.

I will suggest the ops drop a complaint on the main thread to see what exactly are his benefits for having a VIP account and why he is not getting those benefits on the account.
I hope the problem gets solved in the nearest future

1 - who closed your account and why was your account closed?

2 - How is it possible to be a VIP member and not know that you have certain benefits?

3 - What do you mean you wasted a lot of time?

^ That is what I mean, I smell something revenge from each casino, look at the OP after posting this, and leave the forum, but never mind just my opinion.
I don't understand creating this thread it should be on their ANN thread, then problem solve because we know that the casino mentioned by OP has gained also a reputation here.

The more important question that should have been answered already. The case he provided is about self-exclusion and we cannot tell if he also asked for the same.

What's clear to me is he's begging for the rewards he believes he's entitled to while the other case was asking for the money he actually deposited. I think there's a huge differenve there.

You did not mention here what is the reason why your account was closed, Stake.com like all the other casinos will look at it on a case to case basis and why in hurry to post it when you can address it via support, have they declined, or do you think they will decline your request, you are accusing them of something that they are not aware of, you're threatening them or bullying them with your post title, talk to them and ask politely about your rewards if they decline then accuse them.

Complain this to stake itself if you're trying to help that user. Address of what you've found and discuss it with stake. But do you think that they'll grant you what you're asking for.
Whatever that benefit is from stake, it's earned and you even if you say that you're entitled for it, you've got to earn that.

I don't think this thread is created for real reason , because OP literally created this His account to post this thread and then Logged out right after Upping the post .
and up to now never comes back to clarify all of our concerns considering that he has an issue to Stake.com.

So i believe this is not serious matter or he realizes that it is His mistake that makes this situation comes along.

No mate he is not trying to help that User on the link instead he is comparing His case as it is also against stake.com.

I think that a fairly probable scenario is that the OP intentionally did not use the benefits, because he accumulated them to use them when a satisfactory amount was collected. Unfortunately for him, in the meantime, for some reason, Stake.com closed his account. He knows the account was closed according to the rules, so he can do nothing with it, but now he is trying to get at least the benefits back.

Do we really believe that he will come back here to clear everything that matters to us?

OP does not even online for the next 2 days after posting this thread , and asking about if he would be using the remaining bonus? that is answerable by NO because he is banned already and the reason is still unanswered .
But i do believe that Stake is in good position to answer this if He will appear again here to answer or follow up what is the score behind His issue.

I think it's unlikely for OP to not intentionally claim them since the amount you'd get per rank depends on certain factors like gameplay and losses. Then again if his account is self-excluded similar to the post he linked then it's best for him to wait for the duration to finish.

OP already did just a few hours after that post he made another on the ANN thread but there's no response though.

If he does not come back to clarify the situation, or at least answer the question why his account was blocked, situation would be clear. It would mean that he did so only to damage Stake.com opinion. We will be just not sure why he did it.

I doubt he'll come back, if he intended to prolong this thread he would be active in this thread from the time he created the thread. the instant he creates a thread and then disappears so he just wanted to destroy the stake.com image

Usually, when a VIP has a problem or complains to the site, the site staff will give more attention to them and solve the problem as soon as possible because that is related to their reputations. And it is not easy to become a VIP on their site so the staff must take care of them carefully.

I guess he will not come back here and clarify the situation ;D

If I have a VIP account on any gambling sites, I will not leave it anyway like @OP but still, try to use it for gambling because becoming VIP is not easy and I am sure there will be a benefit that a VIP will get. So it does not make sense if he does not use his VIP to get that benefits unless he only writes a fake story ;D

What does not make sense to you or what is fake to you? After all, OP wrote that his account was closed: "I had an account (which is closed) on Stake.com".
If his account was closed due to a policy violation, he might not have used all the benefits. He probably knows that he will not get them back, which is why he created this thread in revenge.

Did you notice that he did not mention why his account was "blocked" from withdrawals after his account was closed? Stake might have done this, because he abused some kind of exploit and are then not eligible for any proceeds from his gambling.

Also saying that he did not know about the VIP bonuses and privileges are also bullshit. (The Customer Support staff contact you when you level up and they post all your privileges connected to your new level.... and it is displayed under your account under the VIP tab)  ::)

It was the first thing I thought about when I read his post. I think it is obvious that Stake.com has blocked his account due to a ToS violation. To get revenge, OP created this thread in the hope that it would damage Stake.com's reputation. I'm sure he won't come back to this thread as its author, but he's definitely watching what's going on here.

Some users make this kind of mistake and this has led to the block of the account, sometimes the user requests to close their account, and after that withdrawal request will result in not getting the withdrawal and the account closed.
I will advise further contact with the admin of stake if anything can be done.

is it possible that OP's account is bought? I mean if support informs the gamblers when they reach the minimum level to have a VIP host, then there is no way OP will not know what benefits he'll get.
and if the account is bought the possible reason why OP's account was closed is that stake.com realized that the account was sold to OP?

That could be a possible scenario, I am also thinking that maybe OP was contacted by the support team but OP missed out on the notification. It really puzzles me how OP’s account was closed, I hope OP will be able to answer all of our concerns and satisfy our curiosity.

I don't think OP will come back here any time to explain anything to us or answer questions. It seems that this account was only used to create this thread and that is the end of his story. See that since opening that thread, he hasn't logged in even once. It was just his alt account to create this theather.

You are right. Now that you’ve mentioned it, it really made sense. That being said, it only means that we will never find out the answers on any questions we have been posting here, and neither we can get anything out of this thread.

Yes mate. He can address that to stake for them to assess the situation and compare it to himself. He can justify why the other user is getting this and that and while him, he's not getting any.
That's all he need to do and this sucks when you see others are going good and you think that you deserve also something that they get and rant online instead of going to the support to ask legitimately.

The OP has not returned in this thread yet. So don't know his ultimate goal here. Also, this should be in under gambling discussion board or scam accusations (if he wants to), not on this board. Based from my experience, he should have chatted the stake support because they do reply on that chat board. Don't know what extent of communication have the OP with the stake support.

If he wanted to settle this case diplomatically and quietly, he would definitely write directly to the support. The fact that he made his case public proves that he has either already talked to the support and was refused, or he knows that there is no chance of getting anything back because his account has been banned for cheating.

yeah , but the thing is that OP seems to not care mate ..

he is not even coming back here from the very moment he posted this case.

i believe that he now find the reason why he need no reason to come back here.

it's almost a week now ? but op never come here again , means we are expecting nothing here now.

In fact, I'd love to know what really happened there. We cannot say with certainty that the whole story was made up by the OP. However, if he does not come back with answers, unfortunately we will have to admit that the whole thing is just a hoax.

All this information is clearly mentioned on the Terms & Conditions and FAQs page. I think you must refer to them or should have some research over the internet so there would be no ambiguity in such cases. Also in my opinion Stake.com administration will not check this post.

Missing information here is about the reason why his account was closed. If it was closed because the account broke the Stake's rules, I do not think there is a way to recover the account to get the missing VIP benefits (if it is true story that he never received VIP benefits when his account is still active).

Yes, that’s exactly it. I think that if OP had disclosed the reason why his account was closed in the first place, this would have completed this puzzling narration. And now that OP is being inactive, I don’t know if we’ll ever know.

ya.ya.yo!

There are those that are giving the complaints of others and as well as their main concerns. But after posting it, they don't go back. Well, usually if they're serious, they would go back. But it seems that they are not serious about it and just left.
Maybe they just want to discredit a casino that they don't like and saw some little part to discredit and show it to the public.
