They will send you an adapter/modem that hooks up to your c-phone sm

It is VOIP ( voice over IP ) so you will have a second phone line but connects through your internet .... So, if your cable/dsl goes out, so does your voip. I hope this makes a little more sense

I don't have a second phone line ... cable modem for the internet, regular line for my C-phone.
If anyone wanst to get through to me while I'm working, they have my cell phone number.
And, as I said, some accounts are using wav files -- no doubt soon all of the accounts will convert. Hope so ... would make it easier (less expensive) to work when traveling. :-)
Lots of good companies out there -- hope you find one that fits :)
You can get an adapter for the C-phone so you can use
other headphones. You can't use, nor will it help to have USB ones, but any of the pronged ones will help.
I worked on a C-phone account and bought one, but no longer need it. I paid $18 for it including shipping. If you'd like to try it, you can have it for $10 including shipping. I only used it for 2 months.
Can you get a pin-to-USB adapter at your
nm
Yes, you need an adapter
They run about $70. You can plug in your regular phone or the Lanier or whatever in to it. It is very portable so you can take it anywhere you want in the world and make unlimited long distance calls just like if you were at home (the phone number is programmed to the adapter).
Do they still use DOS software with a dial-up modem? You don't wanna do that! nm

Even with a wireless modem you can hardwire a computer
The majority of wireless modems also allow you to connect a computer by ethernet to them. I have a wireless home network in my home and have my work computer connected directly to the modem via ethernet cable, but my 2 personal computers are set up wireless. It's easy to do. The modem is connected to the cable or DSL jack, and then you run an ethernet cable out of the back of the modem to your work computer. Meanwhile, any other computers you have can be run wireless using the wireless adapters.
Correction--I should have said wireless router, not modem
Wireless routers allow you to hook your computer up via ethernet. It goes between the modem and the computer.
I found a 9 pin to usb adapter at
for $25.00. The one I found came in a lime green box in the computer accessory isle. They are out there, also Belkin makes them, can go into their website under adapters. Good luck
Post from May said they still use DOS and dial-up modem, need a 2nd line, dock U for errors, and

I just bought a Keyspan 9-pin adapter at CompUSA
I remember they had another brand to pick from, as well. Maybe you can do a Net search??
If your on Escription you may have a hard time with the adapter.
I tried to have my 9-pin foot pedal that I had to use with Escription be converted to USB with an adapter from Radio Shack and it would not work. Pretty much what I have found is that if you are on the ES platform you just need to get a 9-pin. Do they not provide you with that?
Yes, I had contacted tech support and that is how I found out to try the adapter but it never worked
I just wish I knew why they dont just do away with the 9-pin and just either go with a 15-pin or USB.. the 9 is a dinosaur.
Ditto! Also add that they ignore e-mails you send and send endless IMs!

The company hiring you should provide the Dictaphone pedal or the adapter to play the ExText

Worked on C-phone for 10 years with 1 phone line

C-phone - I purchased a c-phone from someone in Oklahoma but never got it. *sm*
First she told me her grandmother died. Then she told me she mailed it. Then she told me her daughter was having chemotherapy. Call me naive, but I thought she was sincere and cannot imagine anyone using their daughter as an excuse. If this is the same person from Oklahoma, I sure would like to know about it because now I want my money back.
You know don't you that you can get cable modem without having cable TV. It costs sm
about $10 more a month for it but you can get it without having cable TV if cable connection are in your house and if they aren't, you can have them put in.
C-Phone = Connexions Phone
Dictaphone is a company and one of their many products is a C-Phone.

Well if you don't want it, send it to me! Better than nothing. nm
I would send a
certified letter, the kind that they have to sign for from the post office. Just to cyb ;-)
I can't say how much they send
to India, but they did state they are sending some there, they never said how much and that it was a pilot program. They do use a lot of VR now. I did not like their program and left recently.
Can you send me one too? I am considering going with them. nm
thank you
When did you send it? nm

If you don't want it, send it to me.

Why don't they send us some of
the scores of gifts that they receive in the office? We are the ones that make their money for them. I don't think it is greedy at all. It is common courtesy, something that today's MTSO's trample on. I get Xmas cards. My kids open it for me, and then they make a joke of standing there with the card shaking it to try to get money or a gift card to fall out. LOLOL
need you to send to another ID sm
hey Nola, I figured out why I did not get it. Send to ccba81499@yahoo.com thanks!!!
I am sure they will send something
They always do, just not necessarily on the exact day it may be expected. But I do have to agree, enough work would be the best thing ever!!!
Dang. Tried again and still will not send
Sorry!! Try MTspot. I am there a lot, too
How long does it take MQ to send sm
the equipment after you are hired and filled out the paperwork?
Send her to either M-TEC or Andrews.

I send many of my things to QA
I did not mean to sound like I just ignore verbatim altogether. I just do not leave in the ridiculously obviously wrong things that is all. I do not change the text or change words around. I guess you missed my point. Yes every account is different and there are specifics I know. The doctor I was referring to about the #ing just does not know how to count; not a system like you are talking about. So never mind.
Did you have to send them back
Just asking.
I don't want to send them a resume either
At one time, some companies put out ads by recruiter and anonymous names just to see who would apply. Those who applied and were working for this big company were immediately fired just for applying. Watch your back!
Did not send resume, but.....sm
I did write a very polite email stating that I was not comfortable revealing my personal information to an unknown company. I included my basic credentials and asked if they wanted my resume to please email me regarding their company information. I doubt if they'll bother, but I've made it a policy to never submit my confidential information to any company who is not willing to reveal their name.
This is exactly why I know longer send anything. nm

Did they ask you to send them your resume?
I took the test today with a 96%, and immediately was asked to e-mail my resume.
send me an email
I may know of a place for you
They do not have to send you a 1099 for what they did NOT pay you, However,
you still need to claim what you received regardless if they send you a 1099 or not and pay your taxes accordingly. I would report them to the IRS in either case, because I am sure you have tried to receive your past compensation without much success.
Send an email and ask
someone in the office who does the time sheets.
only 6? i had a company send 14 !!! nm
xx
why do they ask IF we want them to send WAV player
nm
So send an e-mail saying you are going
to ER, and get a note while you are there. The problem is that this will put you out of work a while if it is broken, but there is no sense lying about it since you do need the wrist to heal.
Or else the note will explain there is no fracture or sprain and you are okay to work in __ days.
I always send an email sm
and ask all those questions before testing. If they don't want to give me that info before hand, they aren't worth it.
Please. Yep, they picked 1 MT to send it to.
I think there are 2? send them email and ask
.Just put you message in the portion where is says Apply Now (or did you see info elsewhere?
Send the resume!
They are an honest company and have proven that time and time again. When something comes up that is a concern, they always fix it. They will not jerk you around and they certainly do not play games. They have recently grown quite rapidly and honestly I don't think they realized this was a great concern until now. They are focused on keeping both the client and the MTs happy, rare in this business. There are one or two MTs here that are out to destroy their reputation as a great company and I suppose these few will come back at my posting in their typical childish manner, but disregard them. Send the resume, you won't regret it.
Well, maybe they don't want US applicants to send pic?
Thanks for clarifying. I looked and to be honest, thought you had put the synthescribeofamerica.com link. i'm just crazy, lol.
Thanks again.
I'm so sorry. I send hugs to you. Sure

Do you know of one who will send me a tape?

It's always best to just send an email and let them know - regardless what day.
nm
Why don't you just send this post to TT and sm
see what their response is? Geez, do you really think you will get any results by posting on this board? Probably not. I have work but I work across all worktypes on 3 different accounts and flex my time if needed. Doesn't matter to me what I type as long as I have work. Ask for another account and/or more worktypes. It may help.
