What the notices say

  • Trustpilot, 25 October 2026: gateio.io is rated Poor at 2.7 / 5 from 13 reviews. The profile is unclaimed.
  • Trustpilot review, 17 July 2026: a token withdrawal pending for over 20 hours. They require facial recognition and personal documents. I have KYC verified. If I try to cancel, they ask for the same documents. That is the reviewer's allegation.
  • Trustpilot review, 25 October 2024: I provided the photos with a passport. They write little information. I understand that they are not going to open access and return my funds ($12,000). That figure is the reviewer's.
  • Trustpilot review, 26 January 2024: I paid $2,128.46 USD toward getting USDT. Status I'm being verified. Gate io still haven't paid me $2128 USDT. Those figures are the reviewer's.
  • This page is the gateio.io Trustpilot complaint file. It is not a finding that Gate.io, the exchange at gate.io, is a fake.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my gateio.io account, or have the person who phoned me call again?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold an account at gateio.io. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as gateio.io.

gateio.io says I must pay a tax or fee before withdrawing — should I?

No. A real broker deducts a fee from the balance. A new payment to release your own money is a second charge. Keep the message that asked for it.

What do you do with what I send?

We place it next to the record above. Where the same payment shows up from other people, those files can sit together as a class action. The first look is free.
