Without MTs, companies would not exist. You and many others have no regard nor respect for hard-working MTS. You can't take it with you. I feel sorry for you. Do the right thing...and, you know what that is.
nonpayment
Yes, I contacted the company. I spoke to a person in payroll, who refuses to release my check because she states she doesn't have a record of my returning their footpedal. I told her I had a tracking number that showed they had received it Aug 30th. She didn't want anything to do with the tracking number and had me leave a message on someone else's voice mail. I have heard of other people having difficulties with this company and it looks like I am going to have to fight for release of my check. Hence, my question.
nonpayment help.....sm
What was their excuse for not paying on time? If you still haven't received 2 checks, I believe I would rethink doing any more work for them until I got paid. Are you IC or employee, since you said employer won't pay. I would let them know no more work will be done until payment is received within X number of days, and then I would call the local Better Business Bureau in that city and report this.
This has happened to me only once, but the owner of the company was very straight forward about her clients not paying on time, how much she owed the IC's, how much she had on hand to pay, etc. She pitched a fit to the clients, they paid up, and we got paid.
If push comes to shove, depending on where you live, I would then go to small claims court to get paid. File a claim in their locale. Good Luck!
nonpayment
I just quit an MTSO who is playing that game. Heard excuses three different times during the six months that I was an IC there and the third time, I said enough already. Always blaming someone else, getting P***y when asked when pay would come and the threat about ICs can get paid once every 30 days..I didn't write the contract MTSO did with biweekly pay. At the end, I actually stopped doing any work until I actually had the money, which ended up being just a few days before the next scheduled payday and the lies started again..last I heard said MTSO still hasn't paid up and still has tons of excuses why someone else is to blame. Glad that I left when I did!!!
I actually contemplated contacting other ICs that worked for the company to point out the discrepancies and then decided that everyone has to make their own decisions and I hope for their sakes that they come to realize soon that she is full of it....account is probably not paying on time because TAT is never met. In six months, there was only maybe one week where I didn't get emails screaming for people to work more because we were behind...I figure it won't be long before the account drops this MTSO altogether and I just hope all those ICs have other means of support or are able to find something else, in this economy that might take a while!!!
Nonpayment help needed
Invoiced and billed employer who has not sent me a check. I did email and a check was to be sent to me by this past Friday, but is now not responding to email inquiries as to the status and whether or not the checks were mailed (they now owe me 2).
Which regulatory agencies or legal groups do I contact in this regard in order to be paid?
I sure don't need another nonpayment company.
Is there anyone that currently works there that can comment on the payment issue?
what action can I take for nonpayment?
I am having the same issue with 2 different companies. IF you are an employee, you can call the labor board and they can assist you. IF NOT...if you are an independent contractor it is a lot more difficult. The labor board will not assist an IC. Then your only option is to hire a lawyer in NJ and file suit against the company there. If the company owes less than the limit for small claims court, you can file in small claims court but you have to physically go there to appear in court...if you win, all you get is a judgment, i.e. a piece of paper. The court will not make the company pay the judgment, it is up to you to collect that. If it is over the limit for small claims, you have to have a lawyer file suit in district court. Of course...even if you win, the lawyer has to be paid so make sure you are owed enough for it to make it worthwhile to go that route. Now, if the company gives you a check that bounces, that's a whole other issue. Then you have to send a certified letter giving them (usually...varies by state) 10 days to pay the check and any bank fees you have accumulated becuase the check bounced. If they do not, then your only course of action is to send the check and a complaint to the district attorney where the company is and ask them to collect. The district attorney will send the compnay a letter and if they don't pay the check, then they will file suit against the company and will in fact arrest the owner. All of this takes ages of course and that is probably not going to help the immediate issue which is you need the money you earned! yeah...I understand completely. Good luck.
last paycheck nonpayment question
Does anyone know what is involved if you have to file a complaint with a labor board for last paycheck? I am assuming that a labor board is where I would file such a complaint. Thanks
What action can I take for nonpayment on a company in NJ - sm
As of this Friday the first invoice will be 6 weeks past due, the 2nd 4 weeks. She has been saying for weeks she has mailed these two checks. Today she said she sent them priority (told me yesterday she would mail them priority). I know she is just biding time because there is no money to cover them which is my next problem. If and when I get these who knows how long it will be before I can cash them. I would like to tell her that if I don't have checks in the mail by Friday (that I can take to the bank and get cash for) that I am going to take action against her. I am just tired of her crap and lies. Obviously I no longer work for her either so she has no real incentive to pay me. She stopped sending me work because she knows I won't type if I don't get paid. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

MTSO won't pay or give me reason for nonpayment
I am going to small claims court tomorrow to file a suit against MTSO that hasn't paid me in four months. No idea why they haven't paid. Won't return phone calls or emails. Only worked there a week, and I think she somehow thinks she is justified in not paying me.
Feel bad for anyone that doesn't get paid. There is no excuse to not pay people for work they have done.
Yes, turn them in to the Department of Labor and Industry for nonpayment.
Try the BBB or FTC for unfair labor practices. Send them a certified letter demanding payment or you'll sue in small claims court.
How does a chat board assist an MTSO with nonpayment issues?
Just asking, not finding the correlation between the two, and clarification would be appreciated for now and the future.

There are still some services (sm)
which treat ICs like real ICs and expect them to have their own equipment, know how to use encrypt files, use an FTP site, and the like. If you would like to email me with an idea of what sort of work you are looking for, I can probably suggest a couple of places to try.
Do you use Instant Text? That's your best bet if you want an Expander that works well with almost every transcription platform.
I don't like working on platforms that dole my work out a job or 2 at a time. I find I'm much more productive when I can download an allotment of files and prioritize them, doing the longer dictations and more difficult dictators when I'm freshest and saving the easy stuff for when I'm dragging a bit.

MRT Services
Yes, I have info. The reps that work the office are totally incompetant. They state that payment will be received within 30-45 days of the invoice for the services. It's not. The pay in trickles here and there, say they mailed checks when they didn't, and they are currently behind on payment several hundred dollars for my wife. We received two checks from them in two weeks, and then checks just stopped coming. She had not stopped working or had any significant gap in invoices, they're just not paying her. I am seriously irritated with them. I don't know anyone who needs a job, but doesn't need the money. They state they'll pay you in a particular amount of time, that's what they need to stick to. The defend themselves by saying their clients haven't paid. That is their problem! They try to pretend like it should matter to you that they haven't been paid, but the fact is, you're working for them, not their clients. They need to pay on the schedule they agreed to regardless. My wife now has to get a full time job because this isn't cutting it for paying our bills. Not only that, but when you agree to take a job at NOON, you don't get the job until 5 or 6 pm or even later!!! That makes a big difference in whether or not you can do the job. They claim it's because they have to digitize the jobs. How long can that possibly take? They make too many excuses, don't pay on a schedule, are constantly late, and whine about little details. They constantly try to correct your grammar when they're actually wrong (wife has a degree in English). So thanks a lot MRT, you people need to get it together in a big way. And teach you front office who deals with your typists to be a little more respectful of their time and money, stop making excuses for your mishandling of your role. I would not recommend MRT Services to anyone. If you need money, get an actual job, because MRT is a joke.

they match up ppl with what services
they need...ie filing bankruptcy, they will link you with those resources. Lawyer referrals for what you need, not just a lawyer. If you use those services, you get a discount of one sort or another. Counseling, weight control, other life problems are free. Depends on what you need them for, but they are supposed to be pretty good. The hospital I work for has them for things like child care, elder care, cousneling, life matters, etc. Hope this helps.

Has anyone tried those MT matchmaker services?..sm
I have been looking around at MT companies for months now and only apply to those that I would really want to work at, including being able to do work in my specialites, days/hours I prefer to work, pay rates that are acceptable to me (when stated in the ad), etc. So there really aren't many that I have sent to overall, but I am flabergasted how many do not return my emails or email back saying that specific position is filled, but would I consider a different position/shift, etc... like a bait and switch before you're even hired.
I have over 12 years of experience and a decent resume of work done in the past for multiple types of transcription services and also includes that I've been with one national company my whole career so far which shows my loyalty and dedication, so I don't know why I'm not appealing to these companies.
Has something changed in the industry? Several years ago I was going to leave my national and sent out resumes and every single one of them called or emailed back with an offer within the day... now, there's nothing. Are the services just overwhelmed with resumes or are they shying away from experienced MTs or what's going on?
So my question is... Have any of you tried those matchmaker services where they match you up with companies looking for MTs with your skills? Do they work? Are they legit? Do they cost? Just because the companies are registered with them, does that mean they are legit companies, or is this a sort of an anything-goes type of thing?
Just wondering what other's experiences have been and whether it's worth trying something like this. I put my resume on this board years ago and got spam, spam, spam, and no responses, so won't do that again. Any other suggestions? TIA!!

Ever heard of MRT Services?
Any info would be appreciated. I have checked their website but doesn't really answer any of my questions. It says they type focus groups and interviews. Medical terminology is a plus? So are they not a medical company?
