I do 1200-1300 lines in 5-6 hours. I am not very fast
though. My fingers are getting old :)
Ooops TYPO
 I better correct my statement before I raked over the coals for a typo by the grammar police. The platform is great and exceed the line count every pay period.
It should read The platform is great and I exceed the line count every pay period.
I guess I better get this first cup of coffee down quick!!!
My company is 1200 lph. I think 1000 to 1200
lph is the usual range. Mine is straight typing.
I don't push like I did years ago - I usually get about 1300-1400 (sm)
If I push, I can get about 1600.
Yes, 10 cpl for the first 6 pay periods if you meet the 1300 lines, sm
8 cpl if you do not. After the 6 pay periods, if you become an employee, then the rates change. I think 10 cpl then was only for 3rd shift.
I just wanted a part-time position, but the 10 cpl sounded rather attractive. Of course, it doesn't matter how much someone pays if you don't have the work or can't make the lines. 
Thanks again for your input. We'll see if I even passed the test.
Uhoh .. does that mean it is difficult to make the 1300 lines per day sm
required for the 10 cpl? I was in high hopes ... sigh.
Thanks so much for your help/input.
I make 1300 per month 10 hours per week (IC) extra job
ooops....yes!!!

ooops. I mean that individual plans suck..not stick as I stated in previous post...NM
only 1200?
How many lines can you type a day when you spend most of the day waiting for work to come in?
In their ad it says 7.4-8.5 cpl, 1200 lpd, and you use their computer. Don't know more. nm

You get for over 1200 lines a day
and this is just MT, ME is different and too complicated. MT gets for over 1200- extra penny, 1301-1450 +0.015 per line, 1451-1550 +0.025 per line and so on. But on DEP what are the chances of this?? I hope good but hear not so good. plus to move up a pair tier from 1 to 2 and so on must pass test and have AVAILABLE POSITION IN HIGHER TIER, must meet work availability and must be manager approved. So just getting better at your job doesn't make you automatically move up.
I have to believe there are some major problems
Some key players resigning and all the messing with wages. Makes you wonder. I have quit so I don't have to worry about it.
Wow, that's a major change.
They used to pay $10.00 per hour for the first 90 days and then put you on production. Yikes.
holidays--major ones. sm
Doesn't matter to me--with all the overtime available at Amphion, it's pretty easy to whittle down using PTO to a couple of hours instead of 7 or 8. But more importantly to me is that as long as I don't have to work the major holidays that are most important to my family--Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Year's--I'm a very happy camper. I was an IC for a long time before Amphion and was able to take my very first vacation in 5 years last year.
It just depends on what is most important to each individual.
They are not a major company, to say the least. sm
For a small company like that, that is probably a good starting rate. Where did you graduate from? Webmedx takes new graduates for more than that.
I think there is a major flaw
in your thinking when you say something like DRC would allow themselves to be smooth talked by a company. I just think that is a very odd thing to say. On the other hand, go on your merry way - it might mean more work for me! And if speaking intelligently and rationally or seeing a bigger picture makes me sound like management then I guess it's better than sounding like someone who has given up on their job before they even know the reality of what is to come or someone making blanket statements and judgments that do little except invite more of the same. I don't know the future. Acusis may well be the new Evil Empire, but until that is revealed to me personally I opt not to assume it to be the case. I guess optimism is a luxury I have; to each his own. I have no fear of finding work elsewhere with my numbers, I just don't see the need to quit before anything has started.
Sorry - its just that I have a major problem with -

I am over 60, so $1200 a month is a little on the
aa
12,000 lines? OMG - what a major RIP-OFF!
Most other companies have a minimum of 5500-6000 lines. How dumb does that company think MTs are? Whatta buncha c__p.
Yep, just one more of the lies. Major
account was VERY unhappy when they found out work was going to India, which is one of the main reason they lost it. See what it cost them in the end though.
Yes, the 6 major holidays, but...sm
...usually there is no work at all. I was told that this depends on the account though. And your rate is x1-1/2 is paid for work done on the 6 major holidays.
major transition
I just stopped working for them a couple of months ago and there is a lot going on. It is true that a lot of American QAs lost their jobs, but now the Indian team leads are losing their jobs and they are bringing in all American tead leads and management. I do not believe they are headed for bankruptcy, but just going through a major transition.
1200 day x 5 - 6000 (I think) nm

Major Vent - fed up
I have been doing this for 12+ years, and I have decided this is a stupid and impossible profession. An MT should not have to go over and over voice files to hear and understand what at doctor says 3, 4, 5 and 6 times to understand what he is saying. If you do, that means he is not interested in making sure you know and understand. This really hit me today. IF a person were talking to you, would you have to ask him to repeat himself over and over again if he really wanted to talk to you? More so for patient care. If a doctor actually cared about making sure that the patient's information was accurate, would he take such risks that the person on the other end would not understand what he was saying?
major vent
I especially like the PAs who mumble and don't even know how to pronounce the medications and believe they are actually MDs
major vent
What's really fun is when they spell the really obvious words and then slur the important ones! Gotta love the docs!
ditto, 1200 nm

1200 lines per day (nm)
x
1200?? Is that in 8 hours? sm
If it is, you might consider a career change. I have done 1200 on some really bad programs (Spheris, Softscript) with no problem. Company I work for now, I get 1900+ every day, 8 hours.
only 1200 lines
ONLY 1200 lines you say? When you sign on in the morning and work 45 minutes, then run out of work for most of the day...........are you able to type 1200 lines? That would translate into 1200 lines per hour, can you do that?
