Unearned revenue because of bogus copyright claim

[TVJunkie93]

I have a video that TubeBuddy estimates should have earned me a little over $150 over the past month. However, due to a bogus copyright claim, I earned nothing. I disputed the claim, today after 30 days the claim was dropped. What can I do, where should I go, or who should I get in contact with to discuss my unfairly unearned revenue?

I know YouTube recently implemented a system where the videos with disputed claims still make money and it will go to the party who ultimately wins. I'm not sure when it went into effect and how it works with videos that already had claims, though. If it is the case where that video didn't fall within the timeframe to be eligible for that, then the only way you could get any recompense would be to sue the party who put the claim on it.

For the moment when a video is claimed by two parties, no ads are displayed. So sorry, but I doubt you will win something from this misadventure.

Yes you have the right to speak up about this! Where is the fair use?

How do you know the video was under "fair use"?

My video is fair use. And I know that ads were running during the duration of the copyright claim, but my monetization options were disabled.
