Course Hero Removing documents I have uploaded.

I have uploaded notes and assignments from my university which has been asked to remove it immediately by the lecturer. If not removed within 24 hours, I'll be punished and reported to Student Disciplinary Tribunal. I really need to remove the documents I uploaded since there is still no action taken by the course hero after I filed to take down the documents. Thank you!

Desired outcome: Removal of the documents I uploaded in Course Hero.

Course Hero Billing and fraudulent transactions

I recently discovered the CourseHero has been deducting from my paypal account $19.95 per month since December 2020 as well as a $39.95 payment also in December 2020.

Upon canceling this paypal payment and contacting Course Hero by their own admission they state "Moreover, we are unable to locate an account under [protected]@bigpond.com. "

Upon checking their pricing it appears that there is no subscription for $19.95 per month only the following There are 3 course hero subscription price options available:

Annual membership: $9.95 per month which is billed in one advanced installment of $119.40.

3-month membership: $19.95 per month which is billed in one advanced installment of $59.85.

Monthly membership: $39.95 per month.

therefore showing that the $19.95 per month that they have taken is not for any subscription plan that they offer

To date I have had taken from Paypal account $399.05USD which I am seeing a full refund from

Desired outcome: Full refund of all monies taken from my Paypal account. Attached are copies of all payments taken to be refunded
