A few posts about them about 3/4 of the way down this page between the DSG & Diskriter posts. nm

Here are a couple more you might find useful
I had saved these links in my Favorites in case there ever came a time to present our case.
Here are 2 other links where you might find some useful information for your article.
1. http://worldblog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/10/17/1548054.aspx
2. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/chronicle/archive/2003/10/22/MNGCO2FN8G1.DTL
The second link is about the Pakistani MT who was trying to blackmail UCSF with personal information.
Some posts about them here down a few on page 3,

I did address this in a couple of posts, actually
And extremely hard ESLs are usually much simpler on VR than straight typing, for some bizarre reason (I guess it's easier for technology to decipher them than the English-speaking ear?).
As I just said in a previous post, too many MTs overriding the system with personal preferences, unnecessary expansions, etc., will prevent the system from ever being able to process at its full potential.
Please note, however, that I'm not the only one posting who does very well with VR. While I made it a point to clarify that I had a very good account with good dictators, others are having success as well, presumably with different employers, different accounts, and different dictators.
And I'll pass on that offer to try out the Q. Life's too short for that particular brand of misery. I truly sympathize for all of you Q'ers every time I read the posts over there. It sounds just awful, so I'm going to take your word for it!
Actually now these posts have moved to the top 1/2 of page

Reason I deleted a couple of posts here (SM)
The post above is answering the original thread.
If you wish to discuss any other topics on MQ, we have an MQ board for it.
Otherwise, simply stay to the topic and answer the original thread.

Couple of posts above it was 4 new accounts, now it's 20? Make up your
mind!
I've been following your posts for a couple of months now
and I advised you long ago this was not a reliable service - unless I am mistaken - and I could be. And my biggest question - are you absolutely positive you will get insurance with them? Last time I knew they hired ICs only. Truthfully, I would go for the unemployment and find another job with another service.
They got back with me within a couple of days. nm
I took this to LD's a couple years back and

Make your own nest. Find a couple of good
accounts, multiple companies if you have to. Work on them every day just to stay on top of it. I used to bend over backwards to try to help where needed, but all I ever got was kicked in the head, so now I just do my routine. When they start appreciating people, (and not just an occasional 'oh how wonderful you are' when they are backlogged and know you can do a lot of work), by some type of recognition like a raise or promotion, then you can go back to being the nice guy.
The posts that were deleted on aren't page 2.
I posted that you give what you get. If you give half wages for full editing of very few clear dictators on slow VR with no expander, bad sound quality, and technical problems you're going to get what you give. MTs who aren't high producers will follow along like docile sheep.The high producing, skilled MTs will move on. VR allows shoddy work that was never acceptable when coming from MTs. The new generation of MTs have accepted that this is the future and aren't accustomed to the strict professionalism of the past. That's just what the MTSO is going to get.
Negative posts about Webmedx down a few on this page. nm
s
Look down the page. Dozens of posts a week on KS. nm
look at how many posts are on this page about t-Tech and what they could answer
I work for them and I have no problems sending an email and getting answers from them.
This is getting worse than Medquist was.
I am getting sick of hearing about them.
Multiple posts everyweek about both. Just look down the page.
If you will go to the bottom of this page and go back
you will see a number of very good and informative postings about TH.
See thread a couple of posts below about TransTech. Very positive.
s
Look down just a couple posts to earlier today for info about OSI.

I worked for them a couple of years back sm
Nice bunch of people, all IC. Nice platform. Always had plenty of work and I think they paid 7 cents a line. I did weekends and always had work. I'd go back to work for them if I could. They had lots of radiology and acute care and tons of cardiac.
I worked for them a couple of years back... SM
They are a pretty good company to work for. Pay always on time. Work flow waxes and wanes sometimes, but pretty consistent. I liked them. Only reason I left was to take a job in the office which didn't work out. I'd go back to them in a heartbeat if I didn't need bennies.
If you'll look down the page lots of posts recently. nt
I put nt and you looked anyway.
Read back down this page and the last 3-4 pgs. Mostly negative lately! nm
s
10 pages, bull, they want it for free, give them one page or find another job.

Read through old posts, discussed a few times the last couple of weeks. nt
Couple of posts down on this board show many leaving Amphion lately. nm

I tested a couple of years back; never heard anything...
I emailed them for update; still never heard anything.
Use the Google box search for MTStars at page top. A few posts from 4/2007 come up.
.
there are a couple of recent posts on the main board, bout halfway down...
Also check the archives, you could do much better for yourself...
I left Amphion a couple of years ago and never looked back.
It was one of the best moves I ever made.
Posts on pg 2 here and lots at bottom of page 3 make them kind of iffy. nm

Use the Google box on this page and click on MTStars for your search. Lots of posts
s
I did and no one got back with me. Come to find out
that is how it works with them. At least in my case. Did you just start with them? I am curious because things always seem great the first few weeks/months with a company. I loved them more than anything the first few months. It never does take long for them to start, well, you know...
I can only find negative posts about them from last year. nm
s
I looked through the posts and couldn't find the one where sm
She says she is NOT a recruiter. Which one is it in? I'm not sure why I'm getting involved except that I keep getting emails referring to this thread...
You know, you do not have to respond to these posts if you find them annoying!
What are you, the post police? If these posts annoy you so much, why do you feel a responsibility to respond? **I'm telling**?? Control issues maybe? No one is making you read them or participate you know.
Gee, I tried real hard to find those good posts,
but all I could find, in addition to the other complaints already listed, were complaints about being in the "middle of an 11-minute job when it was pulled and given to someone else," "There has to be a better way NOT to make a living," "I know I am going to end up on food stamps," complaints of no compensation for down time and BTXT being down and MTs not being notified.
If there were one or two positive comments about it on there somewhere, they are certainly overshadowed by all the justified negativity, outrage and frustration that's there.
I wouldn't wish this company on my worst enemy, and you should be ashamed of yourself if you recommend that anyone apply there for employment these days. It used to be a good company, and like the song says, "Used-to-be's don't count any more." Although I don't expect them to "bring me flowers" I do expect to be able to earn a living wage, and those days are quickly disappearing.
I read some posts a year or so back (sm)
that it was a husband/wife operation - that the wife was super nice and very easy to work for - no comment positive or negative on the husband that I can recall - that they usually always got paid on time but there was that little bit about being paid when client paid - which is a little scary - I'm of the firm belief that a company - large or small - should have enough cash flow to pay their people - that is running a little too close to the edge for me - but if it is a good company and great platform, good docs - I might try them someday.
It's quite low, too. Check posts here from back in August. sm
Posts from August said editing was 1.5-2 cpl and there were comments that pay wasn't on time. I've never heard any positives about this MTSO, so if I were you, I'd keep looking.
If she had ripped folks off back then, why no posts before now?
Not take sides, but if what what you claim were true, think about it -- Don't you think there would have been posts about it by someone out there back then?? I searched the archives on this Allstate company and there have been lots of positives posted on here about them and the owner, Deb. Just remember, there are always at least two sides to every story, and it just seems to me if if Allstate or Deb had ripped off a bunch of people a few years back like you claim, surely someone would have come forward before now. Not taking sides, but it almost appears as if some disgruntled ex-employee has made it her mission to recruit as many of her friends as she can to post anything and everything they can think of to make this company (and it's owner) look bad. As with any posts/comments, I'd take these with a grain of salt....
I find that the large MTSOs are notorious for not getting back with
you. The smaller ones seem to try and give you a little better care. I personally feel that the kind of treatment you receive from a service from the time you send in a resume tells you the kind of company they are and how you will be treated down the road, so if you have not heard back, they probably are doing you a favor. If you feel your resume or app might have been lost in the shuffle then I would give them a call and try and speak to someone. If they do not call you back or you still do not hear from them, I would just thank your lucky stars you found out now.
Might check the archives as I think there were some negative posts a while back. NM

I assume QT Medical. Do a search and you'll find lots of old posts. nm

This was discussed recently. Try a search or just read back thru all the pages to find. nm

If you'll read through past posts you'll find lots of
recent info. Why do you need menitoring if you already work as an MT. Unless you do clinic work most companies will require you to work at least one weekend day, at least initially.
Not at all. Worked for the NJ company. Used to pay by the page or partial page. Don't know about

Some comments on page 2 of this board, middle of the page. nm

there is a thread further down this page or possibly the next page
I transcribed for Compuscribe years ago. Had no problems, just low pay but no problems.
Go to the bottom of the page and click on a page
number to get the most recent archives and then can do Ctrl F and do a search for WebMedX. I wouldn't call them a small national.
