Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.  Had been getting memos quite frequently and now nothing since last week.  Didn't want to call the office and look like a boob, so thought I would check here first.  TIA.

I'm almost afraid to ask what I got. 

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

After reading the boards about the new MQ plan I went to Qnet to see what I could find.  I haven't received the packet yet nor had I received a phone call (or so I thought).  I found a section that stated I received a phone call on Sept 15th and that I had received paperwork.  I wondered what the heck was going on.  Checked my caller ID and sure enough on Sept 15th there was an 800 number (after typing it in Google I found out it was Medquist).  After talking with my husband at dinner about the new plan and the phone call he finally (after 2 weeks) tells me that they called and HE told them that I got a paper in the mail.  They never called ME back or asked that I call them with questions.  So you might want to ask your husband or kids if they talked to someone. 

defining company policies and procedures, benefits, etc. It seems they just don't want to be legal and upfront with their MT's.

What company does not have an employee handbook outlining their policies and procedures, etc. As of late, MQ does not put much of anything in writing -- even the supes will not respond to our questions by imail, but always calls us back via phone. These phone calls really need to be recorded when this happens. Telephone conversations seem to be all the proof of ANYTHING that we MQ MT's have anymore. Have you ever heard of a company that will not respond to emails. MQ has gotten really bad about this in the last year or so. I would much prefer a company to put things in writing.

I never heard from them.  Then eight months later I got a call from a recruiter who offered me 7.5 cpl which I refuse to work for.  The recruiter told me that they offer everyone the same pay, newbie or experienced.  Didn't think that was fair so I further refused to work for them. 

It seems that all these companies want VERY EXPERIENCED, RELIABLE, KNOWLEDGEABLE MTs with their own equipment/programs/high speed internet, but don't want to pay for the knowledge or expertise. 

Their unlimited is only 5,000 minutes and you can use that is 2 weeks or less.  You need to use a service like Vonage.  Comcast and Time Warner cable also have digital phone service.  It uses your regular phone wiring, they just attach something on the outside of your house and you use a modem and it is truly unlimited long distance.

If you want to keep your home phone it takes about 2 weeks to get the service.  If you want to keep your home phone and just add a new line they should be able to do it in just a couple of days.  I have mine through Time Warner and it is $34.95/mo because I also have my cable internt through them.  Vonage is cheaper, I think $24.95/mo. 

I've only had my service about 3 weeks, but the sound is very good and I've had no problems using it wtih my C-phone.  I wanted to keep my same number, but didn't want to add another phone line to keep costs down.  I have call waiting but can't get it to work with the C-phone so I got voice mail for an additional $4/mo so I can still get messages even if I'm working.
