ripped off
I agree with the above poster that it seems you are being ripped off! I think you are perfectly within your rights to request some sort of documentation that the headers and footers are indeed 30%. AND the fact that you are having to fill in demographic pages on the platform, then you essentially ARE typing the headers and footers, as you say, so you should definitely bring this to their attention.
whatever. I know we got ripped
I added what we were making - just from the people that i know that worked for Decatur TSI. For this particular company it IS pretty accurate and we never received our pay. Though I'm sure Jayne, Howard, and even Doug are paying their bills just fine. Merry flipping xmas losers at TSI
Saved me from being ripped off!!

Me too, sick of getting ripped off by SS
on a daily basis. My lines at Softscript for the last 3 weeks since the server issue have dropped drastically. I guess they think we cannot do math and only type.
About 2 years ago, I got ripped
Hope you win the case. She needs to be history. So sweet and I gotta have you working for me, babe and honey in the mouth. I never got paid either. I just fear some new transcriptionists will be caught up by her and they will lose hope about anyone being honest in this profession. Please, stay away from E-Tranz. RUN!
We're all getting ripped off.
Please, the standard used to be around 7 cents per gross line ten years ago, which would equal about 11 cents 65 character! Back then I made almost double what I'm making today as an MT and that is why I have one foot out the door. This profession has hit rock bottom.
WOW - So I've been getting ripped off
my whole career. Unbelievable.
Snuffed out? More like had mask ripped off

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....
Sounds like you're gettin' ripped BIG TIME!

RIPPED OFF AGAIN: line count per dictated minute
Was hired at 16 cpl per 65 character line for a rad acct in Cali. My check were meniscule and so I bought her line counting software and called her on my pay. She said she was paying me 16 cents per minute of dictation which was a complete switchover. You see these were reports with a lot of pasting and then adding different values. The only dictated minutes were the clinical history, pre and postop diagnosis and some values in the pasted normals.
She says the average dictated minute is transcribed in 1.5-2 minutes, HUH, where does she come from, it is more like 1 min of dictation is transcribed in 3-6 minutes, right???
If you call being ripped off for more than 5 grand harsh & scary?
grow some guts. Unfortunately, this is profession has become a cut throat business, and if harshness is what it takes to get paid, then so be it. We are all just trying to survive here on the piddling pennies with which we are compensated. This MT is an extremely dedicated, hard-working MT whose business has been destroyed by ***********not paying for services rendered. It's unconscionable. It is not meant to be a threat, but rather a forewarning of what it yet to come.
It is the only place I have been for 5 years that I feel I am not being ripped off and making money
I work hard but I did for the other companies too and bit by bit more things were stripped away and I would end up making half again. Keystrokes has given me confidence again, and I am making money. That is the name of the game, that is me though. I love it here.
You wont make any money with them. Expect to get ripped out. The hospital they do work for should...
be ashamed to sent their work to Indian companies like treat their employees like crap. You can bet the hospital pays full price, but once the MTs get their part, it is minimal. Dont go there!!
