That's fraud and theft
You need to report it.
Has anyone used a service called
Transcription Matchmaker? Seems like a good idea but don't have time to waste my time right now. Thanks.
There's a smaller service called Global Transcription in Texas. Had

Report it as a fraud --don't have to pay
If you know that you did NOT withdraw it, why are you paying for it? report it and the bank will reverse the charges.
Fraud, Breech of Contract, etc
Appears there are many legal issues that may apply from ?fraud to ?breech of contract to ?bankrupcy to bouncing checks to not paying. This company appears to be breaking a lot of laws. Who knows what else... Beware for sure.
No illegal? What about fraud applying for job with

IMO this is kind of fraud, misleading at least.
But often one can see right through it. MTs are very vulnerable, especially now.
If there are in a thread a lot of negative posts and all of a sudden there jumps somebody in with a 100% positive, praising comment, then this is usually an obvious lie.
copy of fraud resignation
I have a screen shot copy of the fraudulent resignation that the team leader took the initiative to email to me. I don't have a copy of the original fraudulent resignation email that was sent to the account manager, but I sure wish I had, as I learned through Yahoo Fraud Division the following. For instance, I email a person, not forwarded, just they receive my original email. If you go to the very bottom of that email, in the right lower corner, click on Full Headers. Now go back up to the top of the email and what do you see....You will now see the IP address. That IP address tells a lot about the sender. Hmmm, do you think All Type would insist ***** do this since she is the one who received the fraudulent resignation? Would save a lot of legal headaches. I think I shall request that, but something tells me I will not receive a response.
I misread your post - I thought it was about fraud
sorry.
Yet you have never once mentioned who you are a "hiring manager" for. LOL Fraud.

I find that people who call others fraud are jealous.
Many people are jealous that others have made something more. It is the difference in each of us. I am sure if the recruiter who calls herself a hiring manager says she earns $46,000 that she does. I might even know who it is. I know I earn more and guess what?? I know one more recruiter that makes more than I do!
Being a recruiter, I know that you do not go around telling the company you earn that salary for because that is not professional to name the company, but if you think it is not possible, you are wrong. When you have excelled in the industry, it is not only possible, but probable.
If you want to make that kind of money, do something wonderful with your MT work and go for it, but you can't do it if you do not have the people skills or the ability to analyze.
That is theft
If you sign a contract regarding equipment and do not return it, that is theft, and selling it is distributing stolen property. Theft over 500. is a felony.
Can you say "Identity Theft"
On MSNBC about identity theft. They woo stupid people in the US with marriage proposals and fake pics, then woo them to accept packages for them that are bought with stolen credit card numbers, then the US pigeons ship the merchandise overseas at their own expense because they believe they are engaged to someone who doesn't even exist.
If there is a re-run on MSNBC To Catch an ID Thief everyone should watch it. Amazing.
Imagine what these offshore MTs could do with the patients' SSN and birthdates.
Records theft
 All the more reason why we should as MT's in this United States of America band together, go to Washington DC and protest!!!..I am more than fed up with seeing our skills and profession as a whole ****ardized by outsourcing. I think it would be a good idea for us MT's on this board to seriously consider a sound strategy we can utilize to make our leaders listen to us and take us seriously. Perhaps this is wishful thinking on my part but if we could put something together, I for one would be willing to WALK to DC if I had to (and with the price of gas out of control; I might have to) - to make ourselves heard.
records theft
Amen
Identity theft
I would have to wonder if there has ever been an MT convicted of identify theft? I don't know but I doubt it. However, that would make a good excuse for a company, not just MT, to invade the privacy of their employees.....
Obviously I'm not painting too many gourds today. LOL I'm coping with the retiree syndrome..........a pretty sad time really....and just feel like chatting but having a migraine trying to get a foot hold, I don't feel like going anywhere.
identity theft is huge
and always on my mind with these things.
Info posted on the net/identity theft
 At least our county auditor has gotten smart and removed a lot of info off line. He got slapped with a huge lawsuit after 6 people complained of identy theft relating to their divorce/traffic/ civil matter info being posted. Heck, all a thief needs to do is go in and pick out an identity...you get all the basic info you need to become someone your not
Identity theft is a big in the medical field. nm

Would a company ask an MT to commit identity theft?
Why would anyone do this or ask someone else to do this? I do not understand.
identify theft - not sure what world you live in
but they can steal your identify with resume information - all they need is name address and telephone number. With past employers, one phone call gets them anything else they need. It is the same information on an envelope they get out of your garbage can, or on a prescription bottle. We do not need to be paranoid - but you need to be realistic too.
You can't commit identify theft with general personal info
that is found in a resume. They would need to have more detailed info like ss#, which hopefully people aren't dumb enough to put in their resume anyway. Definitely if someone calls you asking for this, don't give it to them. However, as for the people that sent in their resume, it's not possible to steal your identity with the same stuff they could have just as easily gotten out of the phone book. Of course, I do believe that you should be cautious about your personal information, but there's no need to be so paranoid (like the Brian guy on the main page). People should be keeping a close eye on their credit reports anyway with the world the way it is now.
I wonder if those places ABC was talking about selling bulk identity theft...
information online with the internet could be getting the information from health records overseas. The identity theft is sold in bulk to bidders on the internet from overseas. ABC I think had a special on it but never did identify where all of this information was gleaned. Something to consider I guess
I would be worried about identiy theft, getting all your personal information, then that weird stuff
then all that wierd stuff.
Saw on the news that ID theft is big biz in India cause of the credit card industry sending their

It's not being done here in the states!
..
Unfortunately some states do allow this! sm
Depending on the state in which you live and/or the state in which the company resides, mandatory OT is permissible. Isn't that infuriating? Also, laws state that if you do not follow their mandatory OT ruling, it could be legal grounds for dismissal by the company! Ah, our justice system in the US these days - isn't it just wonderful? NOOOOOOOOOOT!
OSI not hiring in certain states
Has anyone else ever had OSi contact them back to say they are not hiring MTs from their state? Does this seem like discrimination? Isn't that kind of like we aren't hiring Caucasians at this time? 
OSI not hiring in certain states
I got the same message. I live in California.
OSI not hiring in certain states
Well that makes no sense that they don't hire people in California. I doubt they have to be licensed in EVERY state. That would cost them a TON of money, but wait...
They DO outsource to India. What does that tell you? huh
3 states away? try to be realistic
nm
Is OSI still in business in the States?
xx
that's fine if the CP states that, but...
NONE of mine state little details like that. Bottom line, you're darned if you do, you're darned if you don't!!
exactly what my post states sm
I said you had to learn a new skill set if you wanted to ever make money on VR, and explained what that new skill set was (manual skills). Any MT can do VR, but a MT who has no desire how to learn those new skills will never be proficient on it, and will keep coming here complaining about how little money they make. And if your pay is too low to make any money now matter how much you learn, then that means it is time to switch companies, because either way it is nobodies fault but your own. They are companies who pay decent livable wages. You are pretty much responsible for what you allow people to pay you. If you don't like it you go somewhere else. If there is nobody offering the pay you want then you are most likely in the wrong career and should go back to school, and began in a field that has higher pay. That is the way it works in a capitalist-free market.
Do you think nationals have licenses in all 50 states? Not. nm
Take a look at the reply above... that states don't take this the wrong way but...
Com'on talk about a smack in the face. Proofing my reply? What is that?
Sounds like critisism.
No, I like the idea of uping my line count by 40%. Trying to use the Expander was good advice. I did not knock that at all. I think I said thanks for the advice on that. My reply was solely for the person who proofed what I wrote.
No critisism towards an expander : )
In most states, if you voluntarily quit
even if you know you are losing your job in X amount of days, you cannot collect unemployment. If the people at Heartland want to be able to collect unemployment, unfortunately, they need to stay.
they hire in all states; depending on what
state you are in, determines if you can be SE if that is what you are looking for.
I actually meant this generally, I do not think it's all that different in other states....
from what I've been reading and hearing from others. My husband and I have separate insurance each with our own employer and pay a fair rate of 100 a month or so and they are very good plans and not that HMO garbage. BUT we don't have kids. We have an excellent income and live on the east coast too but that would not make it *okay* for me if we had to pay those rates. So, right now I'm thinking of definitely nixing that whole having a family idea we've been discussing. I was hesitant anyway because I feel this world is just not a nice safe place anymore. So this may just seal the deal for me. What a country, huh? : (
The recent job posting states
discretionary match, which is why I was wondering if anyone got the info yet.
As far as the PTO, the handbook has a chart, as I recall the first increase is after the second year.
Their ad states cable or DSL, I think, but once in a pinch sm
I used dialup when my cable was out. It was INCREDIBLY slow retrieving jobs and loading the demographic information, but it did work. I don't know about WiFi -- guess you could call and ask them. The people in the office are very friendly and helpful.
Good luck! 
They do pay benefits if you live in certain states. SM
Last I heard it was CA, FL, and one other, not sure which.
She isn't complaining about not finding a job. If she states
do they even contact her if they don't have that specialty? I don't agree with any MT limiting to certain specialties because it makes it harder to find quality jobs, but I also don't know her circumstances so I'm not about to judge. Maybe she's close to retirement and doesn't care to struggle with learning new things. Who knows? Either way, for someone to try to talk her into doing something else and then be rude when she won't, that's not right either. At any rate, yes, just keep telling them NO, that's about all you can do. Annoying, yes, but no one can force you to do anything. As for the rude people, I find saying have a nice day or good luck finding what you need and hanging up works well.
For the record, the same happens to companies, too, in that they'll advertise for certain criteria but people will still call or apply without the criteria hoping to talk the company into giving them a chance anyway. I guess it's just human nature. lol
Transcend policy states that an (sm)
employee who discloses or discusses their salary can be dismissed. Their line rates are comparable and you can ask for an increase, but like every other company there is a max. If you're looking for a ton of work and to always stay busy, they're a great company.
Their pre-employment letter states 8 cpl, no
exceptions. About 2 years ago I was offered 9.5 cpl, but didn't accept position. When I reapplied they offered 8 cpl. I've heard that some MTs negotiated for better rate.
Her ad lower on the job board states
pay/benefits: $7000.If that's weekly, that would be great! LOL  Don't know what she means by that.
The top ad wasn't even completed. Is it that she is frustrated and overworked, or just plain old rushing through the ad? Seems very confusing.
Axolotl's website states
Medical Transcription Opportunities
As part of our company's growth, we are recruiting work-at-home medical transcription professionals to become full-time or part-time employees. If you possess at least three years of hospital or two years of multi-specialty clinic medical transcription experience and want to become part of a top-rate team, please fax or email your resume,
They have called me twice and I have not yet called them back
Per your recommendation, I just might. Thank you.
I called and called and e-mailed my STM. When that got no
results I went over her head. Got another account, but with 3 accounts still not enough work to get in more than 20 hours/week. I worked a shift that was part 2nd/part 3rd. Some days OT was offered, but then there wouldn't be work the next day.
Our website specifically states we DO NOT pay for spaces
so I don't know who or where you got your information, but we are very honest about it. Sorry for your misunderstanding.
