Course Hero renewal charges
Course Hero offers monthly and annual subscriptions, both of which auto-renew. The most frequent complaint is an unexpected annual renewal charge. The safest move is to turn off auto-renewal immediately after subscribing - you keep full access for your paid term, and you simply are not charged again when it ends. If you were just charged for a renewal you did not want, contact support quickly to request a refund.
