I get my check on Monday or Tuesday by snail mail . sm
After bring home peanuts from MQ, it is worth the wait!
Sure, go ahead and e-mail me
I am blackswan--so ahead and e-mail me.
Check your E-mail.

I sent you an E-mail from my other E-mail address.  You can reply to that one or to my Yahoo address.


IS THE CHECK REALLY IN THE MAIL?

I worked for a company for about a month. Upon our initial discussions it was mentioned they paid once a month. I said I could not do that because of getting burned in the past.  They said they could do twice a month so I accepted the position.  First check for the 15th was not received until I believe the 27th as they had surgery and could not tell me when their husband mailed it. Hmmmm.  The second check should have been mailed on the 1st. I was told on the 5th that it went through online banking on the 4th.  Now I'm being told that it takes 7-10 days for online banking.  I never signed any type of contract and mentioned that I would call the doctor myself and ask if he paid them for the services performed.  Now I'm getting, I'll press charges if you do that.  I'll check with my bank tomorrow and if you don't receive it by the end of the week, I'll pay you through Paypal.  The only thing with that is, you lose money.   Can you believe that!! I'm sorry, I just had to vent.  Oh yeah, I took Friday off and I was away.  I wasn't ignoring you. 


IS THE CHECK IN THE MAIL?

I am happy to say that I was paid today after mentioning I may have my fiance's law firm contact the physician and being told online banking would take 7-10 days.  I was paid immediately via Paypal and although I lost a few dollars with their fees, it's better than waiting 17+ days for a check.  My final check..I'm done.  Gant Transcriptions in Texas is the name and excuses is the game!  One for every occasion.  I just hope she pays anyone else she may owe.  It's awful what we have to go through to get a paycheck, and then made to feel like we're wrong for asking.  I guess I'm the only one who works for the money.  Sorry, but the thrill of it went out the window with the paycheck that's in the mail..lol..


if they mail you your check sm
contact US Post Office at 1-800-275-8777 and go through the prompts - Delivery Services, Delivery Assistance, Delayed Mail, Customer Service, Document lateness. They will take down all the info (where it is being mailed from, where it is being mailed to, type of service (first class etc), and estimated value) then get back to you with what they find out within 24 business hours. I just called them about Lee Perfect being late (again) on my invoice - have been told one too many time it is because of the Chicago post office! Good luck!
Lea, check your e-mail

Check your Bulk Mail
I was wondering why I didn't receive a reply and decided to check my bulk mail/spam - there it was.
sm - I sent you a message - please check your e-mail...
I have a couple more questions - if you wouldn't mind taking a minute to answer them I'd appreciate it!
just checked my mail, no check

Check lost in mail :(
Hi. Just wondering if anyone has ever experienced this problem... I'm afraid my check that was mailed on June 4 has been lost in the mail :( I have a new mail carrier, and lately we have been getting a lot of mixups with our mail. I am going to go to direct deposit when I get this check. I am so worried as I am the only one working right now, and we have a family of 5 with 3 little ones and desperately need my check. This happened once before when I moved out of state and worked at MedQuist, and it was a horrible experience. They needed to wait a few weeks before issuing a new check after stopping payment on the one lost in the mail, so my check was about a month late. I am already behind on rent, so I am worried. So far I love my job, and I'm hoping the process will be a little easier with SoftScript...Has anyone ever had this happen to them?
Check your bulk mail or spam
directory.  I thought I had been overlooked too, but the response was in my junk mail.
I get mine check by mail with no problems
I work for the Q and my checks are mailed to me. They come on time every time. I have never had a late paycheck with them. I have worked for companies who consistently pay late and left because of that, a definite deal breaker for me no matter how good everything else is with the company. One day late and I quit working until check arrives, this from experience with not getting paid at all for two weeks of work at one place. My bills have to be paid on time so payday has to be dependable. I have been messed up by a bank computer glitch with direct deposit twice in the past and that is why I have gone back to having my checks mailed.
It's Monday. Everyone plays catch up on Monday. Give 'em

I work IC for a company who pays by check in mail
Never had a bounced check either.  I can see why you would worry though.  Maybe they will do the switch eventually. 
Check is direct deposit and we get the stub through e-mail....

Speaking of Spheris - How long does it take to get check in mail?

I am changing banks and so they are going to mail me this paycheck - I am in California so I was curious if anyone could give me an idea of how many days it would take roughly for the check to arrive.


Mucho gracias!


How do I access MQ Internet mail? I'm registered on Q-Net but don't see any e-mail thingie the

I think anything goes here. Go ahead and ask!

You just go right ahead
because after all revenge is such a great response to fair criticism, and such a great substitute to considering if said criticism is fair...

I'd touch base with the company lawyer first, just for the heck of it...
Already ahead of ya...
I do have another job and I'm using that as my primary job and using OTI as my second job working just about 10 hrs a week. One thing I like about OTI is they don't give a flip how much or how little you work, they don't even care what hours you work so long as you do clock in once in a while.

It seems to be a game at this point, so I might as well play or leave.
Why don't you go ahead and tell them the BAD news? (sm)
They added a tiny bit to the benefit package (still not comparable to other nationals), still no weekend or shift differential. AND they raised the minimum line count from 10,000 lines per pay period to 12,000. It will be imposible to achieve 12,000 lines on those horrible VA accounts. The recruiter will tell you that you won't get paid for headers or footers because they automatically populate WRONG!!! You will spend an unbelievable amount of time in the demographic screen.
I went ahead and tested.
Thank you for the info
if you want 6 cpl with 20 yrs experience go ahead and take the job -nm
no message
I would still go ahead and apply
I really don't think that a few months will make a huge difference, but you never know until you try. They still may offer you a position. Good luck if you decide to apply!
I went ahead and e-mailed someone
There seem to be a lot of people in the lead here, but not sure which one is which.  To me this is a bit ridiculous.  I was put on production right off. 
Go ahead and take their test and you
NM.
Go ahead and do it but be very, very careful sm
that you put the right report in the right shell on the right person. That is the only problem when the report does not match the voice and patient. As long as you are careful, you will not have a problem.
Good, you go ahead and take 7 cpl
but next week don't cry when they'll only pay you 6 cpl.  Maybe it would be a good idea to get the old movie, Grapes of Wrath with Henry Fonda and see what happens with price cutting.
I didn't get the e-mail but I just sent you one and gave you my e-mail addy so (sm)

you could manually type it in and resend me the info.  Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks.


Honey, you go ahead and gripe
all know they stink and that they are thieves. I hope you can find a new position soon. Good luck to you, but please, please get away from SS.
Go ahead and warn 'em
but all too many people get carried away and make up all kinds of nonsense.  I have worked for a few companies and do know what is out there.  I have others to compare this company to.  So, that sure isn't the case.  Anyway, its a free board, post away...just warning others to watch out and to form their own opinions.
thanks for the info- I did go ahead and test
and it was just like you said. I have 11 years experience and had to leave a couple blanks. MT testing is crazy. I don't know why it has to be so difficult. Oh well, moving on to the next company for testing tomorrow.
I think I'm gonna go ahead a bite...
I turned in my Keystrokes paperwork today for a RAD account starting Monday.  It looks like most of the problems are with acute care accounts with more positives on the RAD accounts.  I'm not worried about OT/paid holidays because I have an actual IC job with plenty of work if/when I want it.  I'm just hoping that being this RAD account is new, there will be enough work to keep me qualified for medical.  I see others who just posted recently are new hires also--good luck to all of us!
Au contraire-perhaps months ahead
I don't think I am years behind -- if congress/president has any sense, they will begin to bring our jobs back to the U.S.  The idea of exporting our jobs in exchange for supporting our trade partners BOMBED.  Just like the idiots at Wall Street.  It was a great plan - but it has ruined our economy.  I would not be surprised at all if the tide turns -- and I hope that my fellow MTs will do as I ask and write their congresspeople and ask that U.S. work be returned to the U.S.  What did Obama say?  Time for a change?  You got it brother.  (Palin 2012)
Go ahead, apply, and take my work
Such glowing reports all the time. Ugg. Please, don't ask someone who stuck with it and went broke, and had to struggle for so long due to overhiring. Of course, they will tell you to go nights and weekends and if you don't it is your fault for not being a team leader. So, go ahead and apply. My job is happily available to you.
The MTSOs are the only ones coming out ahead with VR.

That's funny! I wondered how you could know ahead of time! nm

Hey you guys, go ahead and email Dell
because he's probably more in a position than I am to acquire more MTs in the near future.  Mine all depends on an account that I'm not entirely sure of yet.  But if you would like to email me anyway I will keep your information in case I do.  The account I may have is an ortho clinic acct and what I would like to do if I get the account is have maybe 3 MTs share 2 or 3 doctors; that way they can all be familiar with all the doctors but also if anyone didn't want to work any given day the other 2 could take up the slack and cover for the MT who is off.  And I don't even know at all that I will get the account or if I do when it will be - but I will keep your info just in case!
If you can have focus and full steam ahead
Wouldn't you think??????  LOL
sry--meant I'm gonna go ahead AND bite

Excuse me but I am ahead of my lines for the week anyway sm
so if I want to make an omelete, that is my choice. Was I complaining for being out of work at that particular moment? No. Besides, I have work now and also, we are allowed a 30 minute break to eat by government criteria. I don't know if you know that or not.
Go ahead and revolt - do you think that docs CARE? SM
or the public cares? No - and the companies will use that as an excuse to send the remainder of American MT jobs offshore.

And before someone says you're a SUIT, NO - I AM AN MT who doesn't like it any more than you do.
I have known her for 8 years. She is miles ahead of OSI and I'm glad out of the viper pit
She has never been fired before but she blew it off and is already working. She could have w11m offered some significant skills in many ways if they had beev brimming the comopanybck to life.;
Obviously you dont do STATS.. that is when your IM'd until you cant stand it anymore.. Go ahead t
doing stats and let the games begin...and the word NO is not an option..
GOOD. This is important. Glad you thought ahead.
.I think we as women are condition to wait and see how it goes. Has it really ever gotten better -- whatever THAT was. We need to learn to believe our gut. When My Office Genie sold to MQ, I guess she (carol) was so fearful, she made the anouncement and wham, immediately gone. Had it all planned out in advance packed and gone..
Hoorah! I'm still a step ahead of a gas station clerk. n/m
