Company claiming we've used their song yet we haven't!

Them 4 YTTalkers
Recently we've had a wave of third party claims on our videos by Viso Music claiming that our uutro song belongs to them which in fact it's clearly not as we can prove hands down it's not owned by them.

They claim we use the song Vicetone - Hamony while in fact we use a song called Televisor - Strut and we give complete credit to them as the channel we've taken it off (Monstercat) allow you to do so as long as you use all the links they provide in the video.

We've disputed the claim but how you can dispute it is very limited as we can't say they're false claiming because it's not an option.

This is very frustrating as we've had Viso Music at our channel trying to claim we've used their songs, yet we clearly haven't.

Also has anyone else had the same experience with money grabbing companies like this trying to make claims on videos which don't even feature their content what so ever?
 
Monstercat enlist BroadbandTV (Viso) for their Content ID and YouTube needs.
They say you can use their music for YouTube but that they will claim the audio portion, there they are claiming the audio.

Quote from Monstercat :
A content-id match will automatically be applied to videos using our music. This guarantees that the original musician fairly receives a % of the audio portion of the advertising earnings. This does not affect the video or channel in any way

What is the issue?

On the Monstercat facebook page they say that as long you give full credit you will not receive these claims.
 
I was in contact with VISO over the same issue, check out this:

As you can see from the link above they do no say the video will not get claimed, are you reading an older post?
Ah yeah it's been ages since I last read their post about this.

Still the fact they've claimed on a song I haven't used at any point :L
