    If you’re knowledgeable, I have a question. Years ago I uploaded a YouTube video that wouldn’t publish because of an automatic claim. I instantly disputed it, and it took like 5 or 6 months to resolve. But I saw someone today say that claimants had a week or two to respond to a dispute. Do you know if that’s the case now, or if someone was talking trash?

    (I found a similar claim on YouTube, but they may’ve found the same line and repeated it, and who knows if FAQs are actually up to date.)

      Honestly sounds like a glitch. Never heard of this before and from a quick search, I don’t see anyone else having this issue. Did this by any chance happen in 2022 summer-autumn? At that time youtube was modifying it’s dispute system and how many days it can take, which could have resulted in some oversight for some who were already in the process of it.

      Claimants have 30 days to respond, after which it is automatically thrown out and your video should be good to go. The 7 day thing applies to counter-claims and escalation, not standart disputes, so 30+7 days(x*), but not months of just waiting.
