I am no longer a teacher in my school yet my name appears on Rate my Teacher. I wish to remove my name completely from the site as it is public.
I am no longer a teacher in my school yet my name appears in ratemyteachers.com I wish to remove my name completely from the site as it is public. In the past, there were false and disparaging comments to my name. This information is posted against my will, and I would like it removed. When I look to apply for a new job, I do not want inaccurate false comments about me when someone "googles" my name.

Desired Outcome

Please remove my name and any comments or profiles created against my *** on Ratemyteachers.com. My name is *** that used to work at the *** Middle School in *** MA

I have repeatedly been a victim of identity theft and need all my information removed from Online. My name is unique - easily traceable.
I have emailed RMT many times requesting to get my name deleted from their website. I have a unique first and last name and am the only person who comes up when my name is googled. It is easy to see past locations where I have lived and worked through Rate my Teacher. My name and work location was added without my Permission. I have had issues with identify theft for the past 8 years and have multiple police reports open. I want my name *** removed from the past two schools I have worked Semihamoo Secondary and Bowness secondary. RMT having my full name and past places of employment posted on their website has made me a target for identify theft - my safety and security is threatened. I am frustrated with how all of my emails are continually ignored.

Desired Outcome

Delete my name from your website which includes school names (past places of my employment)

I am no longer a teacher in my school yet my name appears in rate my teacher. I wish to remove my name completely from the site as it is public.
Rate my teacher website has my name listed. In the past, there were false and disparaging comments to my name. They have recently revamped the site, but the information posted is still against my will. Further, I am no longer a teacher. I am an active duty Naval Officer with a high security clearance. This site can be used by federal agents for investigation purposes and could preclude me from maintaining my security clearance and ultimately my new job. I would like for my information to be permanently removed from Rate My teachers.

Desired Outcome

Please remove my name and any comments or profiles created against my will.

Customer Response • Sep 03, 2019

The business responded directly to me. They have removed my information from their website.

RateMyTeachers has posted a bad review.I am a National Medal producing teacher.My father's name is Abe;swastikas were drawn on the German texts ther.
I want the review removed. I am a National Medal producing German teacher who is looking for a job. I noticed the bad review a year ago but didn't think anything of it. When I googled myself today for a different reason, I found the bad rate my teachers at the top of the page. Further down you see the article on one of five medalists in the same school. I am using an evaluator at that school and others in the community as references. Someone is clicking on it so that it is the first thing seen. I had a very good evaluation. Very few students failed my classes. I want that taken down. I have only gotten one interview and think that may be the reason why. That review is slander. My father's name is Abe; swastikas were drawn on the books throughout the year there.

Desired Outcome

I want it taken down.

1 Identity was used without consent;
2 Site encourages poor character development among youth (defamation without reasonable cause or accountability)
My Identity was used without consent and although it is public information, this is a site that profits from advertising. I do not consent to my identity being used in this manner.
This site encourages poor character development among elementary students; allowing defamation of teachers without reasonable cause or accountability. Further, these actions could be potentially damaging to teacher reputations and careers.

Desired Outcome

A resolution would include the removal of my name from this site and no further use of it.

I have left numerous messages in regards to the information that is being posted is inaccurate. Never a reply back from them.
I have left numerous messages and not one has been answered. The review that has been submitted is wrong. For starters it says I don't use calculators when I am a science teacher and use them everyday. I would like my name removed from their website, as I find it exposes sensitive information. I recently had a great rating but those ratings went away and now I only have one rating and it's negative. It's harmful to myself and others when incorrect information is posted and I am not allowed to defend myself in return.

Desired Outcome

Remove my name from your website. The teacher should be able to respond to the rating as well.

Since this site updated platform, my good rating shows an unflattering false rating. Computer glitch? Staff won't remedy this or reply to my messages.
Since this site has updated, the one and only rating I had on this site seemed to become inversely low due to a glitch in the computer. For example, it used to say I was 5/5 helpful and now it says 1/5... it is the inverse score of what it was before.

Secondly, I really should not even have my name on this site because I do not still work at the school under which I am listed. I would prefer to have my name altogether removed from this site.

This site has falsely presented me as unintelligent and unhelpful, which causes me so much distress as a passionate, caring teacher. I worry that colleagues, friends, future students, and their parents will form this bias against me if they google my name (I have an uncommon last name, so it is hard to even bury this poor rating). I feel this is defamatory... and unjust because the lone student who rated me many years ago wrote a positive rating.

I have contacted ratemyteacher twice about this concern and have had no response or action.

Desired Outcome

Remove my name or rating from this site.

I wish to pursue another career and have contacted RMT multiple times to request that they remove any references to me, but they have ignored me.
This company, by leaving references to me up on their site despite my repeated requests, including in a letter, to take the references and comments down, is in effect making negative statements about my work ethic overall. I have informed them that I have left teaching to pursue a career in law, and yet they ignore my requests to take down comments at:

Desired Outcome

Remove my name, references to me, comments about me, and all content about me from every part of your site.

I have requested to have my name removed from the site and have received no answer. Flagged ratings are not addressed.
I have repeatedly requested my listing to be removed. This request has been ignored. Flagged ratings are not addressed.

Desired Outcome

Remove my listing from the site.

This company will not moderate flagged post or concerns regarding teacher ratings.

This company has not contacted me concerning a rating that is false and clearly against the site guidelines. The post has been flagged repeatedly by different people and there has been no moderation. The individual responsible for the post has tried to contact this company to have their rating removed. All to no avail. No response, nothing. The false rating is still on the site.

Desired Outcome

I would like.the company to contact me and remove the rating as it is against their own guidelines.

We recently experienced a technical problem that caused certain comments to be posted that violated our TOS. Those comments have since been removed. That said, if you can provide us the name of the school and the comment(s) in question we will certainly take corrective action.

This website allows people to "review" educators without any guidelines. People are harassing me and writing inaccurate and inappropriate things.
I flagged several reviews on this website since I felt that they fell under "harassment" which is stated in the site guidelines, is not tolerated. However, this was months ago, and when I go to flag them again it says that this is being looked into, yet nothing is being done! This is libel and defamation of character. I have also requested for my name to be removed from the site and have never received a reply.

Desired Outcome

I need this business to be accountable for what they are doing. They need to actually adhere to their own guidelines and not allow professional people to be harassed online by completely unfounded reviews. They also need to answer their emails. They need to remove my name from their website or I will be pressing charges.

We recently experienced a technical problem that caused certain comments to be posted that violated our TOS. Upon investigation following this complaint we found one comment from November 2018 which was removed. Please accept our apologies as it never should have appeared. Please note that the entire site will relaunch in March 2019 with an entirely new set of questions. The general comment category will no longer appear, and all comments prior to the relaunch will not appear on the new site.

I want my name completely removed from this site, and for it to never be added again.
I have been trying to get my name removed from this site for 3 years, and they always ignore me. They have an option to "Please Remove My Name", which is a clear guarantee that if I select it, then they will "Please Remove My Name". I no longer teach, and I do not want to be cyber-bullied on this site. I want my name completely removed from the site, and to be removed again if it is ever added again. Being on this site has caused be significant emotional distress, and contributed to me resigning my position as a tenured professor. Again, I want my name removed from this site completely.

Desired Outcome

Remove my name completely from the site, and if it is added again, remove it again.

As long as they keep my name off the site, they *** never hear from me again.

Via email I have requested ratemyteacher remove my name & a profanity & threat posted aboutme. My emails have not been returned & post remains up.

Ratemyteacher shows my name as ***, a misspelling of my name. On January 24, 2019 a post was made that reads "F* You, die in a hole". Using the contact information on the site I have emailed the company so many times I've lost count, asking that the post be taking down as I feel threatened by it. I have also requested my name in any form or misspelling be removed and blocked from all future postings. To date, the company has not returned any of my emails and the post still remains up. Please assist me having someone contact me to get my name removed and the post removed.

Desired Outcome

I seek that the January 24, 2019 threatenin vulgar post be removed and my name be permanently removed from the ratemyteacher site. I seek that some from the organization contact me to confirm this.

RateMyTeachers.com Response • Mar 11, 2019

Dear Ms.:

Please accept our sincere apologies for any distress this *** have caused.

The site was acquired by new owners in late 2018. Based on consultation with developmental psychologists, educators, and student surveys, we are relaunching in mid-March with a new survey that we believe will produce much more useful results for students and teachers.

A human moderation team which reviews all comments prior to posting began transitioning to the new site in December. Technical problems with the prior codebase allowed certain unmoderated comments to publish prior to moderation, which in many cases violated our Terms and Conditions policies. That was the error that allowed the utterly unacceptable post you referenced. As such, comments posted from December on have been removed in an abundance of caution.

The new site will bring over the existing ratings, but not the existing comments. We hope you and your students will visit the new Rate My Teachers when it launches and find it as useful as students tell is it will be.

Kind regards,
RMT

Thank you Revdex.com for your assistance. Though I am extremely grateful that the hate-filled post was finally removed after 2 months of visibility to all, at this point, I would like my name permanently blocked from the RMT site. I do not authorize permission for my name to be listed on the RMT site, nor do I authorize permission to be publically rated.
Again, thank you Revdex.com, for all of your assistance.

Rate My Teacher allows comments to be "flagged" for inappropriateness, such as vulgarity . I flagged a misogynistic comment ..They NEVER removed it.
On Feb. 2018 a student slandered me by calling me a misogynistic name. It was never removed. I have been slandered by students often because they can post anonymously.

Desired Outcome

REMOVE MY NAME FROM RATE MY TEACHER. IT IS DAMAGING AND SLANDEROUS TO MY REPUTATION. REMOVE THE DEGRADING SEXIST COMMENT.

RateMyTeachers.com Response • Mar 11, 2019

Dear Madam:

RMT was purchased from its original owner in late 2018, and will be relaunched in mid-March with an entirely new look and more pragmatically-focused approach. The new ownership does not believe that generalized comments are particularly useful to students (or teachers), and when the site is relaunched none of the comments currently on the site will appear.

You will still maintain your 4.5/5 star rating under the previous ratings, but as a courtesy we have removed all of the comments from your entry so they will no longer appear prior to the relaunch.

Kind regards,
RMT

False advertising. No longer employed as teacher. Never gave permission to have name added. Please remove my name from site.
False advertising. I am no longer employed as a teacher. Additionally, never gave permission to have my name and occupation published.

No response received via email from ratemyteachers.com regarding my inquiry / concern.
I have sent via email a question regarding what caused my rating to be removed and am not receiving a response. Please assist so I may have resolution.

Desired Outcome

Response from business.

This company lets people who may or may not know a teacher, write a review of practice, without a name. This can be detrimental to a teacher's career.
This web site allows people to post information regarding teachers without leaving a name or contact information. The teachers have no recourse. These people, with no name or contact information, could be disgruntled parents or someone the teacher doesn't know; anyone! The information on the site is not accurate. There are teachers that have been gone for 10+ years, and some that have never worked at our school.I have tried to remove my name from the site to no avail.

Desired Outcome

Remove my name from the site.

My name has been added to this site without my permission, for the purpose of slandering me. They repeatedly ignored my requests to remove my name.
My name was added to this site in 2016, without my permission. They have indicated on the site that if flagged, they will remove the page if I select "Please remove my name". However, despite flagging this page for removal many times since then, they have repeatedly ignored me. I no longer teach anywhere, but they still ignore me. I want my name removed from this site.

Desired Outcome

I want my name completely removed from this site. If my name is subsequently re-added to this page, I want it removed again, no matter how many times it is re-added to the site.

I have emailed several times over the past months to have my name removed from their site. They haven't done so nor have they contacted me.
It is a simple request. Remove my name from ERate my teachers. I am retired from teaching. I do not want this site as I have never requested to be on it.

Desired Outcome

Removal from the Rate My Teachers site.

It appears to click-farm a lot, which really makes it seem like someone is trying to either con advertisers out of their money, or transform Ratemyteachers into an extortion racket based around reputation attacks, neither possibility being too ethical. The number of views since 2015 has remained constant, but the number of ratings, especially ratings of current teachers at schools I've analyzed, has plummeted since 2010. This suggests that someone is paying people to click on the site and write reviews, and they're frequently writing reviews of long departed teachers by mistake. If you track RMT's Alexa Rating, you'll see a nearly completely linear increase in Alexa Rating between April of 2014 and July of 2015, which is plausible in the 10,000's place of the rankings mainly if a click farm were being employed and adding users at a deliberately steady pace.

Plus, the legal information on their site isn't necessarily accurate; it's really tough to find a lawyer who'll verify the site's legal claims, as most are telling me that they've lost their CDA immunity by having their own moderators write reviews, but I don't know. A couple of lawyers have told me that it could go either way.
