Bet no good QA now - they've chased them away by bouncing checks and lying.

bouncing checks
I am so glad you posted this. I just left Klaar too after only being employed 30 days. I have to wait another 5 days the bookkeeper at my bank says before I can call her back to find out if my payroll check from Klaar is good and has not bounced. The owner/Klaar told me he would wire me the money if I didn't receive my check that day. He made this statement (in email) 3 days in a row. He said he heard on the news this was the busiest time of the year for U.S. mail because of Christmas. And HELLO--what is the deal with mailing payroll checks and not placing them in a priority mail envelope??? I'm not afraid of naming this company, K is for Klaar. The owner's manner is creepy and unprofessional. How does this guy keep his job? Then he angrily emails me back making statements like I need to retract on my slanderous remarks because I'm now telling him I'm receiving information from former Klaar employees. In this stressful world of many bills, there are no words to describe how infuriating it is to know you've wasted time on a situation like this. He stated my claims just weren't true. BULL. Dept. of Labor will get a phone call from me if my 2 payroll checks bounce from this guy. Also, no one will answer the phone in their office that I phoned many, many times. Very suspicious and underhanded.
bouncing checks & crazy captain
Ladies: I PROMISE that if I find out that both of my payroll checks from Klaar (there are only 2) actually clear the bank and are okay in my checking account, I will return to this post and let you know that I retract my negative statements about Klaar. The payroll checks are drawn on Wachovia. Don't know if that is good or bad, Chicago area. I SINCERELY HOPE that both of my checks clear and all of this is over. I don't want to contact Dept. of Labor but I will because one way or another, I WILL GET MY MONEY/WAGES. I EARNED THEM.
They're bouncing checks lately as per posts here and on MTDaily. nm

those bonus checks aren't extra money...you would just get tw bigger checks rather than 3 checks
don't kid yourself 
I've never had a problem with checks or insurance before so that is what concerns me.
But, I will be following up on Monday. I was just hoping that anyone who had this happen could confirm that is the way it is done. Thus far, no one has really confirmed this so that is a good sign.
I dont mind background checks, but why credit checks!!!! nm

What good does it do? They've lied, they've betrayed us.
They've taken all they are going to take from me. I am not going to waste any more time being angry. I hate the way things ended, but I refuse to accept the blame for any part of it because I know that was a lie too, even though they did try to blame the MTs. I know part of the problem was quality issues, but QA wasn't to blame for that either, although they have been.
It is time to pick up and move on. I think mgmt will reap what they sow. For those who worked on the main account Webmedx is still hiring, though the best time slots have already been taken.
From time to time those paper checks aren't good!

Bouncing paychecks....
 Is there anything you can do when check issued by company bounce? I have only worked part time for this company about six months, but this is the second time one of their checks has bounced. I am only working here until I get a few accounts on my own independently so I that is why I have continued to work for them. I just cannot believe a company would be so money-tight as to issue bad checks for work that has been done. Anyone ever have this happen to them?????
etranz in GA is still bouncing paychecks. sm
I just got an email from a friend/former co-worker of mine who also worked for etranz in Georgia. She had over $1000 in checks bounce. It took her almost 3 months to get them, finally did and now they have bounced! Please, if any of you MTs know of anyone who is looking for work, please be sure to steer them away from etranz. They make their ads sound great with weekend incentives and higher line rates, but getting your paycheck is nearly impossible....and when you do get it - it may bounce.
Please pass the word around about this unprofessional, unethical company!
I have been bouncing around from one account to another, and now they are all out of work!
Trying to hang in there, but I need to work, not sit around waiting for work to MAYBE roll in.
Ive tried, but the emails keep bouncing back to me.

COMCAST AND AOL EMAILS BOUNCING BACK
Many of you who requested union initiative information are using Comcast or AOL addresses, and our emails are being kicked back.
Please enable contact at USMLSU dot ORG in your email program; if the email is bouncing we have no way of getting it to you.
If you cannot enable our address, contact us again using a Gmail, Yahoo, Ymail or other web address (create a new one if you don't already have one).
This will be the downfall of MQ if they continue this bouncing people around. Whoever thought up
this way for MTs to work is so entirely wrong that there is no way they have ever ever done this job. They are totally to the wind doing this. Anyone who has ever done MT work will say that the best way to get the best lines and best quality is to keep MTs with what they know and what they do best. One main and one backup is all anyone should ever have to do. We have constant complaining in my office from the hospitals about things that are done wrong and it is ABSOLUTELY because of people not used to the account hopping in when they run out. Bad bad business.
I wonder what the work looks like with entry level MTs bouncing around in these accounts. Well, they
MQ will just continue to lose accounts and there will be less and less work. The entry level MTs cannot produce nearly what the experienced MTs can I know this from my supervisor and they send everything to QA because they arent sure of themselves so does this make sense. Not to me.
I was IC w/them and checks came on time. First checks were FedX'd to me on time! I left due to an
s
I've been an MT for 28 and it has been good
teach one of our daughters, 21 years old, who doesn't know what she wants to do, MT. I told him no way. For one, she can make a lot more money as a waitress/bartender than she would be able to make typing the same hours, especially when first starting. And the future doesn't look so bright for MT, so I'd rather she just decide on something, get a degree, and go with that and not get sidetracked by MT like I did. I can't say I haven't made a lot of money with MT (own accounts for many years now), but if I hadn't had that, I probably would have gone back to school and finished my degree.
Look, I am not lying. Why would I lie about it?!?!
That is one thing I CANNOT STAND!! Someone basically calling me a liar. I DID NOT LIE ABOUT THIS!!! DO NOT CARE IF YOU BELIEVE ME OR NOT!!!
I really don't think it's lying. When they
assume that to mean as part of the everyday situation. You're are just starting up with this company and I think it's expected that you would type a few days to become familiar. What will you do if a new account comes on board? Usually, as QA, you'd be the one to test the account out and get the feel for it before offering advice/suggestions to the MT staff. I guess you could always refuse to type and just not get paid for that time?
So far, so good! I've been with them only a short while, but
I'm very pleased so far. Steady work, low to average DSL's, paid right on time, fantastic platform. Negatives are that the do offshore to Phillipines (but haven't seen any impact on work load or type of work that I get) and paid only for characters and headers - no spaces. Even with the no spaces, the wonderful platform makes up for it. So far, it's great but I worked for a company in the past that yanked the rug out after a few months. So far, no indication of that at Cymed though. Good luck in whatever choice you make though.
Mostly Indians. I've never seen anything good
posted above them.
I've never been good at doing the math... SM
Thanks for doing it for me. The definitely is way too low.
I've seen mostly good things on here...
I just signed on with them and am excited to get started. :D
Stop the lying
We're on to it.
Then can almost guarantee they are lying.

Stop lying
Keystrokes does not give pay raises. I have been with them for several years and have not received a pay raise. I meet my line requirements when there is work available (more often than not). I would suggest that if anyone is accepting a position with Keystrokes, do not leave your other job until you have worked a couple of days to make sure it is really what you want.
LOL LOL. now I know you're lying!!!
Please stop already LOL
I've never worked for such a good company
I was contacted immediately after I tested. I wanted part-time work at night to try them out, so I worked 20 hours a week for them. After a month, I quit my other full-time job and went with them full-time. I've never seen such a fast platform. The benefits are incredible compared to other companies and the work is excellent. Good communication and accessability with co-workers and supervisors. Extra bonuses for what we had to do normally at other jobs. Direct deposit. company contributions to 401K. Earn vacation money from your first day on the job, and you don't lose it when/if you leave. I'm extremely happy with them.
i've heard nothing good about transolutions

Either would be a good choice. I've worked for both.
In the archives, both companies have good and bad comments. You have to weigh one against the other and whether you think someone is just disgruntled or not. Both are better than MQ or Sph.
I've heard good things about both...sm
but which one pays better? I'm curious to know too as I thought about applying for eMTS. Let us know. TIA
I've been there for 3 years - yes, good company
xx
Pretty good from what I've heard...
A friend of mine works for them. Said they are strict on accuracy and line counts but are also somewhat flexible in schedule.
I've head a lot of good things...sm
About Axolotl. Do you happen to have any info. on which specialties they are hiring for? I haven't seen any job ads for them.
I also heard something about them not paying for spaces. Can you comment on that?
Thank you!
I've heard good things about MDI.
Sorry, I'm not part time so that's all I can offer. Felt I should write something as poster below didn't seem to realize this company board is for asking and discussing companies.
I've been there a few years. I think it's a good company.
Although I feel that ALL MT pay is far too low, Acusis pays better than most. Several accounts are teaching hospitals, some regular hospitals, and some clinics. Most of the time they have plenty of work, except right after the Holidays.
I find the management to be VERY nice to work with - a welcome change from my old situation, which was horrible. Excellent techs, too. The SoftScript platform they use works well. Sound quality is good. If you email a supervisor or other person there, I've found they respond in a timely manner.
The pay varies based on the account; more for harder ones, less for easy ones. They ask for feedback from MTs, and are appreciative to get it.
Anyway, judging by what I read on this board about other companies, I think one reason you don't hear much about Acusis is that most people that work for them are happy with them.
Good question - I've always wondered that myself.
I don't think the companies want us to know how work is assigned, though.
They got caught lying about offshoring!
Love it when one of these companies gets called on the carpet!
No lying, stealing, cheating at all.
And I am entitled to my opinion. I didn't say all MTSOs are ethical in their business operations but most are.
Seriously, if you read over the board, it looks like a few oldies who are bitter or newbies who cannot get their foot in the door. It doesn't sound like professionals with realistic complaints. It sounds like very withdrawn, angry individuals who do not come out of their shell except on anonymous boards. :)
For the MTSOs who are unethical ... I think they should absolutely be shut down.
Still yet, no one forces you to work for any company. It is entirely your choice. So, make a different one, please.
Be happy.
She may not be lying - but it is not typical or usual. nm

Yes it is true! Quit lying!
There always seems to be a few with their heads in the sand at Spheris - but please! Go look at your corporate email list and see how many Indian names are on it! It grows every day. Good accounts at Spheris disappear every day and that's where they go. You never read the company forums? Just because your job is still fine doesn't mean you can ignore the suffering of the majority of your fellow employees! And to recommend someone else go there just to get burnt is really mean.
TransHealth...I've read lots of good and bad SM
about them, but am going to start with a very open mind. I am looking forward to it.
Chickadee
Any good info on MDI-FL. Do they have IC status? I've been searching for sm
the past 15 minutes and have found nothing!! I read somewhere someone said you have to have tough skin to work for MDI-FL. I wonder what this means! :)
Thanks to anyone with any info on this company. Trying to leave MQ and make some decisions here. Help out a fellow MT. Love ya. LOL
I've always heard if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. n/m
x
Do you mean Axolotl? If so, I've heard many good things about them. nm
nm
I've had a lot of bad ones...finally found one that's pretty good sm
It is a struggle though!! I have worked for several that stunk up the place!! LOL Been cheated on line counts, etc. My best advice is to see if there are any companies near you, smaller, home-based MTSOs who have fewer employees. A way where you can actually get to know your employer. I found one not far from my house who advertised on Craigslist and she has been pretty good to work with.
You'll get over the good feelings. I've been here over a year now. (sm)
And if you had seen the subtle changes they have been making, you may agree they are moving in the direction of becoming the new MQ (pre sale to India).
Well I don't agree with lying but if I were offered the money she was
offered, I would have taken it and would spend the rest of my life enjoying.
The lying is unbelievable. If you work there, you darn well
