Has anyone ever worked for Millennium Business Solutions (MBS)?
Thanks,

Millennium Business Solutions Info
They sent me an e-mail in response to my resume posted here. It didn't really say much but the person's name was an ethnic name. I know that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
In the e-mail was an attachment for pre-employment screening - when can you start, how many lines, etc. From the wording of the attachment this is not a U.S. company. When going to their website it doesn't mention anything about how long they have been in business, the names of management, etc.
I didn't spend much time on the website, but what I saw didn't mention anything about a foreign connection.
I searched the boards here and only found 2 posts where someone was asking about them and no one had responded, so I thought I would add my observations.
The e-mail didn't mention anything specific, they have clinic and hospital accounts, but didn't mention type of equipment, platform, lines required, or a pay scale.
I did not respond to their e-mail.
Premium Business Services
Anyone working for Premium Business Services?
Morgan Business Services
WARNING - STAY AWAY FROM MORGAN BUSINESS SERVICES. Worked for them for six months. This is a very small, family-owned company; they also hire their family members' friends. I got my hand caught in a car door, was worried about it, so next day, took time off to go to doctor's and get my hand checked. The woman who owns the business questioned whether there was something wrong with my fingers and said I shouldn't have taken time off to go go the doctor and that I was lying.  Then, all the family members and friends of the family members who got hired basically turned against me. It was awful having to work there after that, so I quit a month or so after the incident. Years later, I got word from someone who also used to work there that had to beg for a raise.
Wherever they advertise, DON'T WORK THERE!!!!!
Millenium Business Services, MBS
Can anybody share some comment about this company Millenium Business Services http://www.onlineMBS.com located in Cornelius, NC. TIA
Millenium Business Services
I heard they are giving offshore jobs but they are delayed in giving the payments
It might be Colon Business Services...sm
I looked it up in Google--Offices are New Jersey and South Carolina. Don't know anything about them, though. Sorry
They used to be McCoy Business Services. I worked briefly for them when I lived in Louisville. SM
I don't remember anything specifically negative about them. Just that the pay was kind of low and I didn't stay long because of that. The work was okay. Mostly local accounts from the Louisville area.
Sorry, the older I get, the shorter my memory. I can barely remember yesterday! 
Ever heard of MRT Services?
Any info would be appreciated. I have checked their website but doesn't really answer any of my questions. It says they type focus groups and interviews. Medical terminology is a plus? So are they not a medical company?
Is Elite Global still in business? I haven't heard anything...sm
about them in quite a while.
Anyone heard of Millenium Business Solutions?? Ohio
I just received an email that they are hiring and I've never heard of them before, out of Ohio. Does anyone have any knowledge of this company?
Anyone heard of Commonwealth Transcription Services
Looking around for a job and someone told me of Commonwealth.
Anybody heard of Bureau of Office Services?
Does anyone have any experience with this company? They are in Illinois.
TIA
anyone out there ever heard of Dictation Services Group (DSG)?
They had a post on MT stars and MT jobs a couple of weeks ago. I sent a resume' but never heard back. I followed up the resume with an e-mail inquiring if they were still hiring, but again never heard anything. I have been transcribing for 15+ years, but have not done too much moving around from company to company. Is this the way most companies operate? How much time does it take to respond to an e-mail (and yes even if you get a hundred) and advise whether or not they are still hiring. I am a little disappointed. I have experience with the platform they are using and the type of account they were hiring for. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks
Has anyone heard if Scan Medical Services
They made me an offer to work IC for them.
Has any one heard of On-Point MT Services out of Wisconsin?
Some friends of mine went to On-Point which is fairly new. But I heard there are problems like being understaffed and payroll not being met.
Has anyone heard of or worked for ACES Up Medical Services? nm

Please do not be so biased. Many large companies use transcriptionists outside of the US such as CyMed, who was purchased by a company outside of the US. This is not new for the US to do business outside of their territory as well as other countries doig business here.
What about typing for foreign accents. Should US transcriptioists say they only type for US doctors?
Please read: THE WORLD IS FLAT.
The internet has made the playing ground even for small businesses who can deliver quality reports by using MTs outside of the US but ensuring Quality Assurance of documents within the US.

Please help me. Does anyone know anything about AMD Services or AmeriMed Data Services. I have been offered a position with them and need to know if they pay good, etc. before I accept a position with them. Thanks in advance.

Trying to build his business? He's been in business over 15 years!!!!!! sm
I also had a hard time, nearly impossible actually, getting paid. The owner does this on the side; he is very involved with other things.
If you don't know what is confidential, you have no business being in any business.
This is confidential information and should not be divulged. It is one of the biggest problems a co can have. If you have to ask...well I won't be able to explain it to you
I've heard only positive things about them. So, I applied, but haven't heard a word. Maybe fl

I've only heard of Intellitype. Never heard of Teletype.

Are they still in business?
Were you currently working for him?
It's really none of my business because I
don't work for MQ, but it looks to me like they need some kind of formal verfication for whatever reason that you received the letter. Perhaps to prevent any future actions on your part by stating you already had received notification in the form of a letter? Do you know if the phone call was recorded or not? Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but this sounds so awfully underhanded and sneaky to me.
It is none of their business (sm)
and there are certain questions they are not supposed to ask employees. What other ways can they invade your privacy? I would look elsewhere.
OSi has not been in business for 10 yrs. Who are you trying to
xxxxx
This is about all she does to run a business.
Business 101 sm
You are supposed to have a budget set up for payroll and taxes ahead of time. Every other week is the norm in regular business. Companies penalizing ICs or employees because they have lousy contract terms with an account is unethical.
This business. sm
Duh! I guess I don't. Just supported 2 children all by myself until they left for college with my MT wages. Nope, sure don't know anything about this business which has kept me employed for 25 years.
I don't have to know what Andrews is, I learned the right way - on the job.
Ya know, I have been in the business as
long as you have and worked in every aspect of MT including management and the slackers do exist, but they exist from any country. That's just an excuse for outsourcing or low pay. If you have slackers, get rid of them and leave the ones who work hard alone, but pay them a decent wage.
This kind of bull just literally makes me ill to read and it justifies nothing.
business
Just wanting some opinions about what people think of companies that have been around for 5 years and how to weigh the pros and cons to leave a company if the one that has been around less would pay better? thanx!
I own my own business
big mouthed fool! Go back to bed!
Is JLG still in business or have they gone under, too? nm

Bad business
 Yes! I agree. I tested today for another job and accepted something else part-time. As soon as am sure about the new job I am washing my hands of this GA company for good.
That is really nobody's business.
If the girl has transcribed errors more than likely from my experience it is due to POOR TRAINING on (OP) or Rad MT's part. If she was such a good trainer or whatever, the girl wouldn't be making errors! Sorry, but sometimes ya' gotta' step back jack and look in the mirror! There's plenty of companies looking for radiology MTs. Furthermore, the girl probably never got a bad vibe from (OP) Rad MT OR SHE WOULDN'T BE ASKING HER FOR A JOB REFERENCE ya' think????? 
ITA. Not sure how they are still in business. nm
Should go out of business
Hopefully, they will not stay in business long. I had a friend who worked for them and just resigned. They are HORRIBLE! They are a disgrace to our profession.
Probably 99.9% of them. We are in a 24/7 business. nm

Unfortunately they are still in business
Talked with someone I know who actually still works for them... the person said she was busy, but struggling getting paid again. Did my own research, found they are doing advertising in Canada. May have to go off shore soon to get an MT that will be willing to type for them. Pretty sure the investigation by the State of PA is still going on. They are not out of the woods yet. Just hate to see anyone get caught up with them. The care nothing about their MT's. Not too sure who and who not has not been paid yet.
Are they still in business?
I say enthusiast because they have been a hot topic that keeps me interested locally and nationally on what they do next...In that regard, I notice their web page is paid for up to 2009 but apparently has been under construction or not found depending on the page you try to enter on.
I also know that all of their ads on various sites are still up, but they would not bother to pull them anyway - making me very curious- does anyone still work for them - did the tax man, labor board, and lawsuits finally catch up and put them under.
Would over to know - I could use a reason to celebrate.
It should be none of their business
I think a person's credit report should have nothing to do with a job in this industry. Just another excuse they use to kick you when you're down! If your current job is not paying your bills, isn't the smartest thing to do to look for a better job? Penalizing you for that is ridiculous and unfair!
Bad Business
You know, I applied to a position right here on this board, took the test, and just got turned down. I know I did a great job. It was the easiest stuff I have ever transcribed. For some reason, the recruiter wrote to me and said my test did not warrant the type of Transcriptionist they were looking for. It makes me sick. I currently work for 2 other places and do over 60,000 lines per month, with rarely a remark from QA. I have over 28 years' experience and am a dedicated and hard worker. I actually am in a foreclosure situation and am willing to put the time in for 3 full time jobs. I will find the right third company, but what a shot that was!!! I work 7 days a week and know I can fulfill them all with at least 12000 lines each per pay period, 2 weeks. What do you think? Just trying to save my house!!!!
bad business
I don't think so!!! I know what you mean though. I recently worked for a big company and they abided by BOS unbelievably so. Hey, I can appreciate that and I learned a lot and follow every bit of feeback I get. I love it actually. I think it is just a case of false advertising really!!!
If you have been in this business a while you know
it is feast or famine. The company can't give you work they don't have. My company had clinic and acute care accounts. Unless there is work leftover from yesterday there will be little work today and even less tomorrow if the clinic MTs work weekends. My company pays holiday pay. You could take PTO if no holiday pay, or you could anticipate the holiday and the lack of work and work extra when there is work.
I do acute care work and we're on OT, even this week, though by Sunday and Monday it might be a little slow.
I can understand your frustration though.
You know what? I am an MT who has been in this business
for 10 years, and I have gone through my ups and downs, had a house, built a house, lost a house, had 2 kids, could not afford macaroni and cheese to put on the table, had to go on state assitance.
So, yes I do know what it is like to starve and not be able to pay bills. Yes, I am a Transcriptionist who DOES want to work and who needs to work. For over a year, I was with a company who promised me work as a statutory employee. They did not deliver. Every time I would try and talk to them about it and tell them what was going on, I got another excuse. Those excuses did not put food on MY table or pay MY bills.
It just really pisses me off when MTSOs promise one thing and then another happens. I have a very good work history, used to own my own business and am making less now than I was 10 years ago because of offshoring. It should not be this way. I have the experience, do not cherry-pick, work my hurting fingers to the bone and for what? To be replaced by someone who cannot even speak English and has no knowledge of the general English language let alone medical language?
You really do not know what you are talking about as far as Americans not knowing what it is like to be hungry or wanting to work. Maybe you were one of those MTSOs who promised everything and then did nothing.
Going out of Business?
The gossip on the grapevine I am hearing is that they are going bankrupt??????? Anyone else hear that? That is SCARY! Now I'm scared I won't get paid my last check! Wonderful.
I have had my own business . ..
I have had the misfortune of having to collect money from doctors who have it but don't want to pay it. However, this has plagued me even into working for someone else on the internet. I am thinking about going back into business again . . . hmmm you have made such a great point.
