Content uploaded at coursehero, without my concent
Hi Team,
I had found that several documents of mine were available at course hero and they were uploaded without my consent. I have raised several requests and still I am not seeing any action taken on it.
I want this content to be taken down immediately.
Below are ticket no generated after submitting the request on https://www.coursehero.com/copyright/ for request to expeditiously remove the content.
Awaiting for a response from course hero team and getting this content removed.
Kindly help me in this issue.
Thank You,
Dhaval Shah

My tutor account got disabled.
Yesterday night,i got an email from course hero saying that ,they temporary disabled my tutor account . And told me to send a 10 sec vidoe clip to them with some instructions for re enabling the account. And i did it .
But so far they haven't replay yet?
I have huge amount to withdraw from my tutor account, that i planned to use for my Next year post graduation fee.
Plz atleast let me withdraw my earnings.
Desired outcome: Re-enable my account or atleast let me withdraw my earnings
Thanks for reply. Can you tell me,How many days i have to wait for tutor support reply?
Course hero asked me to send a 10 sec video with some instructions and details. I did it . Within two days i got response and they re-enabled my tutor account
so many people have provided the documentation and you end up taking their earnings. Is this ethical? people work for you and then you steal from them. You guys will burn in hell together with your families.

My account always getting temporarily disabled.
On December 7 my account got this problem, that they temporarily disabled my account because they identified unusual activity on the account and now December 14 I am getting this problem again without properly explaining why my account always got this, which I just did is to help the students with all my best following all the honor code, copyright policy, and terms of use. And now your saying that I violated the term of use? I read every now and then the terms of use so I know what is inside that and base on my performance I followed it. I hope you will consider my situation and I'm just worried that maybe every week I will get this kind of problem because you didn't properly review my account. I hope to get back my account without any problems in the future.
Desired outcome: Able to activate the account without any problems in the future.

Permanently disable my account due to SMS verification
Last 12/10/22 I was trying to withdraw my earnings. I input my SMS number and a code was received. However, when I enter the given code a prompt message states that my number cannot be verified. I opted to do Contact support to ask their assistance.
A response was received, and I was so shocked and disheartened to see the message. It states that I have violated their rules hence, causing for it to be permanently disabled and I cannot withdraw all the amount I earned.
I have tried to contact the Support again twice, asking them to specify the violation I have made. Cause as far as I know I have followed all their rules. I was really hoping I could claim all my earnings, and this will be resolved. This is very traumatizing on my part.
Hope they have interviewed me first so I could have defended myself into whatever violation they have thought I have committed.
The amount withhold is big enough for us to use this Christmas.
Desired outcome: I would like for them to give back all the earnings I worked on ($110) and return my account to active status.
This will not be resolved unless they send me my earnings. They want us to answer Homeworks as clear and specific as possible, but they can't even provide a specific reason of the said violation before they remove my account, they did not even give me the chance to defend myself. All I want is to withdraw the money I worked on, as this I believed is rightfully mine. I have been trying to reach out to your support. I can't even call. No response still. Send me my earnings. That's all then you may remove my account.
I have reached out to your support to ask the specific violations. Why now that I am trying to withdraw? If you could give me the specific violation you said I have committed so I could defend myself. I just want to withdraw the amount I worked on. This is what I am just asking, to get the amount I worked on your site before you disabled my account.
As far as I know I only got problem with the mobile number as it cannot be verified as per the prompt message. Then suddenly you will message me and inform me I was permanently disabled to your site, because I committed a violation which you cannot even specify?

Locked account due to reaching the maximum number of phone verification attempts
Hi Course Hero!
Last December 8 around 1pm, I was about to cash-out my earnings but before cash-out, it needed SMS verification. After I input my phone number it says "my account could not be verified and some features have been blocked. Contact tutor support for details." I then emailed [protected]@CourseHero.com.
They unlocked my account but unfortunately when I type again my number, it gets locked again.
and then last December 11, I've read in my tutor dashboard with the statement :
"Following a thorough review of your Course Hero Tutor account, we have discovered activities or answer quality issues that are in violation of our Terms of Use and Tutoring Values. As a result, your access has changed and you can no longer answer questions on Course Hero.
You can withdraw your available balance if it exceeds $20 USD. Please contact Tutor Support if you have any questions."
Is there a way i could change my number?

Account locked due to attempt number verification
Hi, I'm worried about that locked account. I just did 2 or 3 attempts for mobile verification. Then I see this message
"This tutor account has been locked as a result of reaching the maximum number of failed phone number verification attempts. To potentially resolve this issue, please send an email to [protected]@coursehero.com."
Now I want to unlock my account as soon as possible. Helpful rate 100%. I'm waiting for your response

Hi, I am happy to say that my tutor course Hero account was re-enable. It was working.☺️
Hi Tirumala!
Did you withdraw the money after your account re-enabled? Did it work fine?
Congratulations!
Hi fellow tutor,
After your account will be restored, you can withdraw your earnings just fine.
Thank you so much for replying. I'm waiting for access to my account as they told me it will be done within 48 hours. Can you tell me after how many hours you got your access back? Because it has been more than 40 hours now.

Some of my university's notes ended posted on Course Hero by mistake, and I need to get rid of them before the administration takes any kind of action. My university provided me with a ton of useful notes, but in order to use them, I need to get permission from the owner. I have requested that the course hero remove this, but so yet, nothing has been done. Immediately, I must delete all of the files from my account.

Can’t withdraw my money from my account
My account has been temporarily closed since December 9, 2022 and I don’t know what is the reason for this. I don’t violate any of your terms and conditions since my subject there is all about math, all of my answers are all from my mind and hardworks.
I just want to withdraw my balance there, its the fruit of my hardwork. I need it and its mine.
I already emailed the [protected]@coursehero.com and their response will take up to 7 business days. I want to withdraw my balance now.
Desired outcome: Withdraw my money and open my account

Tutor Payment
While I was withdrawing more than 400 $ I came across the issue of a phone number. I was working from 2020 till November 2022.
I received a message from the tutor support team informing me that they had seen some suspicious behavior coming from my account and needed a few key facts as well as a 10-second video. With that video and other information, I replied to that email. Nothing was done and the account was suspended.
Seems like a SCAM...
If there is an error in your system then it's your problem. Highly unprofessional behavior.

Removal of uploaded files/documents
My university just ordered me to take immediate action to remove my uploaded files because of the Data privacy act and it could potentially tarnish the reputation of our university (and myself). I have emailed the DMCA and support plus take down request but it's been 20 hours and there hasn't been an action taken ever since. Please, this is urgent.
Desired outcome: I want all of my uploaded files in Course Hero to be removed completely from the website.
this is the email i sent to both dmca and support, i have 30 uploads in total
They have removed all of my uploaded files almost immediately after filing a complaint here. I have just received an email comfirming that they have successfully attended to my concerns. Thank you very much!
Did not receive payment for my work
Hi,
I worked on the Course Hero platform as a tutor and helped many students in their studies (more than 120 questions). But yesterday, I was unable to access my account, and upon contacting the support, they replied that their system had closed my account.
Alright, their system has closed my account, but I had more than 200$ in my account. If there was any issue, you should not have banned my access to my earnings that I had already earned by answering questions.
Now I request for the payment of my hard work.
Desired outcome: I request the withdrawal of my hard-earned money.Account: [protected]@uop.edu.pk
