Course Hero

The service is ok, you don't have helpful tutors, they disable or cancel my account because of infringement but didn't say what I have infringed. How am I suppose to submit a counter notification and I don't know what was the issue, url of the problem.

The accessibility, the overall set up, the price, the materials and the way they are presented. Terrible, over priced, a lot of stuff is irrelevant and by the time u know it it's too late if u aren't paying for full subscription, some material with answers don't even make sense and it's as if a monkey completed it. But oh well y'all do not care that I wasted 2hrs trying to decode an idiots homework that didn't know what he was doing…

They deactivated my tutor account for no reason and kept the money I had pending to withdrawal. They will give me no reasoning for deactivating and have ignored my inquiries. They also keep all of your materials and your answers to questions. Obviously my answers were good if you are going to keep them all active on your site. It is a totally unethical company and I'm glad I never uploaded my study materials or other resources.
Update: They have since informed me I was deactivated due to low ratings. However I had 5 star rating.

I can not get a refund even though the resource quality is poor. I downloaded a sample exam and was checking my answers after completing it only to see that 1) multiple answers are inccorect and 2) some questions don't have answers. There was no official answer key included, instead it was random "verified" tutors who answered individual questions, and for some of the questions the answer wasn't even relevant (ex: a simple multiple choice question had a bunch of code as the "answer).

Because I downloaded the resource I am not allowed a refund by their TOS which is unfair when the resource quality is poor. DO NOT use them as there is no way to be sure that the resources and their answers will line up.

Coursehero will make you sign up using google, while promising free download of your file and will later take your credentials, while still promising a free download, still offering free content until you are completely trapped into paying. They say things they don't mean. Don't trust.

As a teacher, I will agree that the content is good. It is the marketing that I have a major problem with. I paid for a full premium membership for $119.00 for the year. After I unlocked 30 documents, it said I needed to pay more money. I didn't know I only had 30 unlocks so I kept unlocking documents to see which one had the best content. This is ridiculous and is a money maker. I can understand paying for documents if you are a free user, but not for paid members. That should all be included. This is misleading and fraudulent.

Coursehero steals money from tutors by closing accounts before they withdraw. Coursehero steals money from students without their authorization (Renew automatically)
Sometimes, they give wrong answers, so be careful. They do not care. They care only to collet money from touters and students.
Their attitude very rude, never solve any problem. Terrible, I would give a zero if I could.

IT IS A TOTAL SCAM!
Course Hero has blocked my tutor account with silly excuses and now blocked my hard earned money amounting $700 again with some silly excuses. They have done this with all the tutors I referred too. I have personally come to know about more 7 tutors to face this scam. They simply get the questions answered by tutors and don't block them within a month or two, by the period some more tutors join the loop and people continue to be cheated. This chain must be broken or they will keep making money with this scam, cheating the tutors.

They disable your tutor account for no reason, after doing your tasks successfully, then on the due date for making your earnings withdrawal... Boom, they close your account. I wouldn't recommend to anyone

I would request all the tutors on Course Hero to stop using and stop answering questions because they will never pay you. Initially, they will take 15 days to start making payments and after those 15-20 days, they will make any excuse to permanently close your account. I urge everybody to please stop using it because today it has happened to me but tomorrow the same thing will happen to you. I had above INR 15,000 in my balance and they simply shut my account. I request everyone to please stop using it. They only take money from the students and make the tutors solve them without paying the tutors. We should not let this scam to continue, I once again request everyone to stop using Course Hero.

It's an okay website, but it depends on what predicament you're currently.

1. If you're already a failing student and you just want grades high enough to pass your classes then CH is a good choice for you.

2. If you have a full semester left and have a lot of time left then CH is also good for you.

However, this website isn't good for you if.

1. You're an A-B student who is looking forward to passing your classes with high grades.
2. You're close to your deadline and you need to hurry up and finish.

If you relate to 1 or 2 then I recommend Brainly, Bartleby, Studypool, and Chegg instead because you'll be getting a C average with most of the documents posted on Course Hero. Most students just upload their rough drafts to get more unlocks, so the content isn't high quality or enough to ace the assignment (especially essays or research papers).

Honestly, this website is soo stupid, The tutors asks us for everything for references but the website itself won't submit the question with all info. Not to mention all the tutors knows is typing Missing Information: Reference

I do not recommend this to any of my friends to be a tutor. There are a lot of refunds going on, at the end of the day, you will have to pay them instead of earning.

If you are planning to be a tutor, please don't.
