No late payments here, either. nm

Need some information on IC payments
I started this year as IC and know I will be paying SS, income and also state income tax. Where do you get the mailing addressses to send these payments off? I do not want to wait until next year when doing taxes and hear I owe the big $$$$$. Thanks.
AccuStat payments
Me and about 25 other MTs that I am in contact with that all work with AccuStat are having no problems getting paid. Maybe the client that you are working on is not paying?? This is the downfall of being an IC. You will get your pay as AccuStat is very good to their MTs...dont worry!!
I haven’t received all of my payments either.
Two payments of $500 are indeed $1000 in a bonus.
What are you referring to?
Not true. $200 deposit taken in four easy payments.

I would imagine they will just start sending usage payments

Newbie bud is working for them and she's lacking several payments right now. Time

Only comment I found from last year said they were consistently late with payments. nm

And what is required to CASH IT !!!!
What does the accompanying letter with the check say. Anxious to know . . . surely could use my money now.
It is not petty cash to us...
my DH is obviously the one who has the six figure income, which has come from hard work by working for the same company for 24 years and being the best at what he does. Though we are blessed to have this income, we know that at anytime something can happen, so we don't have any debt other than the house and live within or below our means. You won't find a boat, RV, brand new cars, flat screen tv, etc here. Too many people trying to keep up with the Jones out there. As Dave Ramsey says, live like no one else so later on you can live like no one else.

Not really "petty cash" sm
Honestly, my husband is the one making most of the money. He works 12 shifts and sometimes 14 hour shifts, rotating nights and days and any overtime offered, he takes it. So, making over 100K a year is very hard earned money with many time sacrifices.
Not everything is as rosey, as you seem to think, when you come across people making 100K + a year.
Another thing, our bills are just as high too.. and we ain't talking living in a big beautiful mansion of a house with BMWs in the driveway either. We are a middle class family, living in a middle class neighborhood with a middle class job, paying a mortgage and other bills just like everyone else.
Unfortunately, in our case, we started out in debt 20 years ago and are just starting to climb out of it slowly but surely. We finally were able to buy a decent house in a nicer neighborhood that is not crime ridden. So, I consider that good debt.
not if, like she said, it came out of petty cash -
key word petty, as in lower than required for reporting.
IC sounds strapped for cash sm
You should have been told before s/he gave you the work. Sounds like they are on a strict budget and can't pay you until they get paid, but they should have told you. Depending on how much you need the money/job, tell them you are sorry to hear but you assumed you would be receiving a weekly paycheck. Ask them to put it in writing that you will be paid and how much. Then, if you can't find anything else right away, do it until you can find other work. They shouldn't accept work they're not sure when they can pay you unless the discuss it with you first. Big issue, cash-strapped people everywhere. I don't think it's fair, but cash is king today and sometimes hospitals, etc., will wait 90 days - that's tough on everyone. She should be more strict with her own accounts and put 10 days payment or COD, otherwise s/he is going to have one nasty group (if any are left) working for her service. My heart goes out to you. I would never do this to anyone, would take it out of my grocery money if I had to, not fair to you.
can cash it but if bounces you lose
and may have to pay a bank penalty$. I think it can take 2 weeks to clear. I guess they don't have direct deposit? Ask. Google direct deposit procedures. They give info on how this goes about. If you do get the check Friday, call and ask if there are funds to cover it as you just cannot afford to pay for a bounced check.
I guess you could take them to labor board of your state. Guess you could take to small claims court for your state. Can google all this stuff.
You could probably make some nice cash if -
you transcribed all that doctor trash-talking, then offered to SELL IT BACK TO THEM in exchange for NOT publishing it, or handing it over to their department-head.
Heh. Heh-heh.
Unless you cash the checks on the bank they are written on, you
have to cash them against funds in your own account. That's how the banks cover their behinds on NSF checks.
LOL. That was funny. I like that petty cash thing :)

That's the attitude that keeps the suits rolling in cash.

Don't cash it at your bank; make the trip to THEIRS
THEIR account will be charged, not yours.
I read $20 million, over $16 mil cash up front
In other words, serious dough. I'd think a wee bonus to us 500 galley slaves might be in order. Had many of us not been told ''MDI does not send work overseas, Dorothy would never do that'' when we were hired, I doubt we would feel so betrayed.
Take the checks to the bank and cash them outright, don't deposit. nm
I had a similar situation with another MTSO a long time ago, and put up with it for months until I jumped to a major national. I also found out that the bouncy MTSO didn't file Social Security returns or pay my withheld taxes to the Feds. There ought to be major red flags for any MTSO who bounces checks or doesn't offer direct deposit; it could affect you in many other ways you are unaware of.
Yeah, and when the Indian cash cow dries up, they'll

I am a shadow of my former self - angry, irritable, and strapped for cash.

Great News!! I was able to cash the check yesterday. I called the branch directly and they said-sm
right now it was good. I do live in another state but her bank was bought by a bank that is local to me. I went there as soon as I could get there and they cashed the check for me!!! She owes me another small check ($84 and change) which I still have not received. I was beginning to think that I was never going to see this $$ (the last time I was able to cash a check from her was back in January). I guess if I bug her enough I will get my other funds. I think she just wants me to go away which I will as soon as I get all the funds owed me. She also owes me a 1099 but I am not going to stress over that. I still have my records. Thanks all for your ideas.
Not talking about lines. Talking about what you actually
afsd
You MUST be talking about OSI

see... this is what I'm talking about
This is good stuff. Thank you. Now about platforms. What seem to be the main complaints? What makes a platform 'good'? The one I work on has a screen where most of the demographcis are filled in, but you have to do a couple. Then you go into the report. I don't really mind it, but have nothing to compare it to.
I don't know who YOU are talking about
I don't really know who you are talking about nor do I care about what happened in Spring 2004. That was 18 months ago. But if that lady did have a company, I am sure she knew something about running a company. I was speaking about current stuff, and the ladies I worked for were absolutely THE most wonderful people ever. One even went to bat for me when the company shorted me some money. She stood up to the big dogs, and she won too!!!! What a wonderful, wonderful human being!!! She was a great TEAM leader, TEAM player, and made our team awesome!!! She made you want to work for her AND our team!! Never in all my years of working ANYWHERE (and I'm 45 years old...so lots of bosses!!!) have I ever found anyone that compares with her! I had (and have) many that need to take lessons from her, but none that compare or even come close! :)

Okay, we are obviously talking about
The Sten-Tel I am referring to is located at One Monarch Place in Springfield, MA. They do not use a payroll service. One of the owners does the payroll. Please state the address of the company you are referring to.

That's why it's the mess that it is. They were too afraid their fees would get frozen and they couldn't charge $600 to get a benign polyp analyzed under a scope(actual price, yes, from a bill). She mentioned the word healthcare, and the AMA, the largest world in the union (as the docs how much they pay for the medical insurance - NOTHING), squished her. We desperately NEED health care reform, but big bucks Bush (the one who says we need to give up our love for oil, even though oil is what is padding his pockets), and his buddies at the AMA (including corrupt Frist) won't allow it. So, it, along with everything else in this country, is going to continue to slide downhill. Bill was bad, yep - left good old Georgie boy a heap of money in the bank that he now has spent like a mad drunk.
What are you talking about???
In your 15 years experience, you should know that the proper word to use is 'accept', not except. I made the above post and have 8 years experience and am probably younger than you are. What part of my post indicates that I cannot 'accept' that this field is changing?
The newbies need to 'accept' the fact that this is a serious profession and that you must be dedicated and willing to work hard if you intend to remain in this field. YOU are the one who needs to GET OVER IT and crack open a dictionary while you're at it.
Now I KNOW you don't know what you are talking about (sm)
They don't have acct supervisors
Not sure if you are talking about same co. or not
Did you see an ad on MT Jobs? Spelling of name is different so I just want to be sure.
Just talking about it
I did not just talk about it. I cancelled my membership.
? I think you are talking to me, but I am SM
not the other person posting above. I don't link to an email because I want to be anonymous. I don't cheerlead for TH, it's just a job, better than some I have had but I have had better jobs in the past. I need the insurance, they pay on time and I make enough money to pay my bills. I don't think I can exactly call that cheerleading. I know of worse companies.
As far as the names on the list, I must have a different email roster than you because the #s you give correspond to people I know are American MTs, so I am confused about where you are seeing Indonesian names.
are you talking about use of IM ? nm

You don't know what you are talking about
Medware has over 200 transcriptionists in India. They have more MTs in India than they do in the U.S. I gave Medware a chance. I worked with them for many years and in the end I got to watch my friends take a huge cut in pay when Medware decided all reviewers would make $8.00 an hour with incentives for ridiculously high production expectations that only about 2 people can make. I have watched the lead MTs lose their positions only to be asked to return to transcription. It is insulting the way Medware treats their people.
I am glad you like Medware. I used to like them too. But I am sure if you stick around long enough and start making enough money with them, you too will learn how they really are.
I don't know what you are talking about but
I can tell you that QA people do not get the bucks. They should, but they make about half what an MT makes. I do not transcribe, which is why I am in QA, so if you think we make big bucks, think again.
Companies have gone cheap on all of us. It is not MT against QA out there. QA has usually done their part in the MT world. If they tried to give me MT work they would be out of luck cuz the profession has about done me in and I would be on total disability from what it has caused.
The companies just have no respect for any of us. That's the bottom line. Don't blame your woes on QA. Blame it on the companies who have no other thinking other than the bottom line.
Anyone talking with MDI-MD? (SM)
I was called by the recruiter Saturday before last. She said someone would be calling me later to discuss the money aspect of it and I still have not heard from anyone. I emailed the original recruiter and she said the other lady had a death in the family. I waited until yesterday and emailed again and she said they have been really busy with a new account. Just wondering if anyone else is going through this. I have several interviews this week and would really like to put them in the running as what was intiallly told to me sounds very promising but I can only wait so long.....
I know exactly what you are talking about
I've had that happen so many times I can't even tell you. Worked 7-days a week for one with not a single day off in over 3 years. Gave notice due to health and not being able to work those hours anymore and got an email talking about how I didn't know what hard work was, etc. etc. Presently in a supervisory position, promoted only after 30 days to it, but told it didn't merit a raise. No overtime allowed but I'm supposed to be here making sure things run smoothly all the time. Head of QA on my account yet some of the new-hire editors are making more than I am. Even with all the supervisory duties, my line output for editing is #1 for the account. Does anybody care? Uh-uh. Spent all day on the job sites looking for something better. You'd think if you work your tail off and go above and beyond, it would matter, but it doesn't.
I am sure we are talking about the same
person. What I can say about her is that she stands up for what she believes in and she will not take being treated like junk particularly when she probably knew more than anyone at the company.
She has helped me find jobs and she also will go out of her way to help anyone in this field and I applauded when she quit on them. They did not deserve her anyhow.
Are you sure you know what you are talking about?
RAD MT's, I was just offered a position with them, my current company came back with a counteroffer and that is the only reason I did not go with Precyse. They sound like a very good company to work for.
What you talking about?
There was an e-mail today mentioning 7 different accounts that have extremely high volumes right now, and telling us that if our primary is low or out of work, to please come over and work on these. If the work on your account is being saved for the cherrypickers (which I honestly doubt), then go on over and work on one of those. Sounds like there's a ton of work out there if you want it.
