Although many of us don’t really like using centralized exchanges, and for many reasons like the situation you are facing right now, where you could have explained the full story and what’s happening instead of being that upset and angry without searching for a solution. For this thing, you might not remember if you set a withdrawal password I also have been in a similar situation long time ago with gate.io. Feeling upset and helpless didn’t solve anything especially I had funds stuck on my account because I forgot my withdrawal PIN or password so I contacted their support, put in some effort, and eventually I was able to reset that password. After waiting about 48 hours, I could withdraw my funds.
Gate.io is a large platform and they wouldn’t risk scamming users or losing the majority of their clients since they profit from every single user. My advice is to keep reaching out to their support until you get a solution, and don’t give up especially if you have significant funds inside.
Also, remember that losing your private keys elsewhere means losing your assets permanently. Always be careful to store and remember your passwords, and keep in mind that centralized systems can sometimes be just as secure as decentralized wallets or exchanges.

It's normal for an exchange to allow users to reset their passwords if they forget it, and Gate.io should have that feature. From what I've read, this exchange also offers 2FA--something you should definitely use to boost your account’s security.
Submitting an ID usually isn’t necessary unless it’s for KYC purposes, which wouldn't be the focus here since the main issue is simply accessing your account.

When you go to the link to reset the password, it tells you that you need Google Authenticator. When you go to set Google Authenticator, it says you need the funds password. It the loop of fraud
Oh. Are you trying to change your withdrawal password? Can you tell me if your 2FA code is correct? Or do you not even have 2FA code?
I also use Gate and I just checked and saw they not only require 2FA code from Authenticator app but also require code from email as well as SMS. If you have all that information, you will be able to change or reset your withdrawal password easily. And in this case, if you lost 2FA code I recommend you to contact support via email and ask them to disable 2FA feature before you can reset your withdrawal password . It's not as complicated and difficult as you say, you must have missed something.
A password I never set is blocking me from accessing my money.

Instead of resetting it, gate.io said "fuck you".
I am sure they did not say it.Quote

You have same risk with any centralized exchange.Reminder: do not keep your money in online accounts

I have never been a fan of Gate exchange from day 1, I had my verification rejected couple of times and I just abandoned them and never looked back again but your situation isn't clear, if you can share a screenshot, people can explain better about the situation. Another question is what do you mean by reseting password? Did you send a forgot password and didn't receive notifications on your email, if you do, you will definitely get an email notification.
What if you use the wrong website? Have you thought about been on the wrong website probably a clone website where you must have submitted your details and when yiu try to reset your password, it's programmed to return an f word, I'm very sure that definitely wouldn't be gate exchange, even if you offended them or probably has done something that violate their terms and conditions, you wouldn't be getting that reply again. So check again, I mean the real website.

Was your password protected with 2FA before? If so, then you just need to provide the 2FA code so you can proceed in resetting your password. I use AUTHY myself, and I’m not sure if it’s exactly like Google Authenticator, but I can access my 2FA account through a password-protected app. That’s usually the only information the exchange needs to verify your account. So, try to comply with their requests first by remembering the password of your 2FA app to get the code needed, and don't rush into thinking they are a scam.

I think you should send some photos of your claim. I doubt gate will message you exactly how you described the message to you. Its not like a known exchange would send you a mean message like that.Do not put your money into gate.io unless you want to get robbed.
Also are you sure you are on the right website maybe its a scam one and just impersonating gate website.
It's a flat password error.

Sad to see a platform putting such shit to your face as a user, but the we may like to see prove of what you mentioned, such as a screenshot of the reply you get when you contacted them and also how it all ended between you guys.Do not put your money into gate.io unless you want to get robbed.
