Should I dispute this copyright claim?

I uploaded a video 2 years ago, and it got a copyright claim so i cannot monetise it and it cannot be viewed in certain countries, I was hoping to hopefully dispute this, this is what I am planning on writing

"I entered this video into a competition a couple of years ago, and was told the video was too long to be entered so it got withdrawn and I entered a different video instead which never got copyrighted, however this video somehow got given a copyright claim and has been blocked in several different countries. I have never really understood why and would like if possible for this to be disputed. If this isn't an error then I can completely understand and I will accept that, I would just like to know if this is at all possible and what parts of the video are copyrighted, as I have people in the blocked countries who would like to be able to view this video again

Thankyou for your time!"

Would this be classed as a fradulent claim? it has over 130k views and would have been great for monetisation I understand if I cannot monetise it but I want to at least be able to get it unblocked in the blocked countries, should I ask if I could monetise it again as well or not? I don't want to lose my youtube account completely!

Should I give it a go?

The video was an app review where i didn't really show much footage at all and there is no music in the background, i think it was claimed by the people behind the competition but i'm really not sure
 
There should be spots where why they are claiming.

At least that's what happened with me when I got a claim and disputed it.
 
Most copyright claims will have the reason why, from who, and where specifically it happened.

Whenever I would get copyrighted, I knew where to fix it to make it disappear, but otherwise, you might not be able to monetize it. You can always try to get it unblocked, though. That would be a good middle ground.
 
Should i send that then, would that be okay? As i am quite confused as to why it's been blocked and unmonetised
 
I'd say give them a call first or send an email with using the word dispute. At least then, they can't say you filed a fraudulent claim.

Oooooooh, haha, that is quite the problem. You can definitely try and get it unblocked in countries but I think monetization is no longer an option at that point.
 
how do i actually contact syco even by email is that at all possible? or should i just leave it
