How to increase backend services quota in Google C

Question

I'm using Kubernetes and I'm trying to create an ingress resource. I create it using:

$ kubectl create -f my-ingress.yaml

I wait a while and a load balancer doesn't seem to be created. Running:

$ kubectl describe ing my-ingress

returns:

Events:
  FirstSeen LastSeen    Count   From                SubobjectPath   Reason      Message
  ───────── ────────    ─────   ────                ─────────────   ──────      ───────
  46s       46s     1   {loadbalancer-controller }          ADD     my-ingress
  23s       11s     2   {loadbalancer-controller }          GCE :Quota  googleapi: Error 403: Quota 'BACKEND_SERVICES' exceeded.  Limit: 3.0

Is there a way to increase the number of backend services that can be created?
