Transportal info

In Reply to: Yes, I have. She is very busy but I would follow up. sm - LMT

To save you guys from hoping too much, I was contacted and I was offered 7 cpl with possible 7-1/2 for employee status.  Such as slap in the face!  17 years experience and that was all I was offered!  Hopefully, that will let you know what they are going to offer you.  It is a huge account and sounded awesome but not awesome enough for slave wages.

Any recent info on TransPortal? I have searched archives
And I haven't really found much.  Any recent experience, good or bad, would be great.  Thanks!

Darn it.  They want to give me an account.  What is bad about them may I ask??


TransPortal ?

This company is located in North Carolina and I did check archives but could find nothing regarding them.  Are they a new company?  Anyone with info please fill me in on pros and cons, please.  Thank you.


TransPortal
Anyone have any info on them or currently work there?
TransPortal

Did anyone apply and hear back from TransPortal?  I was contacted for an interview and never heard back.  I was just wondering if anyone else may have had luck with them.


Thanks,



Transportal

Got an email that they liked my resume, would call the next on the phone.  Never got the phone call.  I called the following day and left a message for the recruiter that I was still interested in talking to her.  She called back the next day and told me they had nothing available but would keep my resume on file. 


Another total waste of my time. 


 


Transportal in NC
Does anyone actually work for or formerly worked for Transportal who would be willing to give me some information on how they are to work for.  I have seen the posts, but nothing concrete, just a message to avoid them but no reasons given.  I am looking for an IC job, and they sound promising.  If you prefer not to post, just send info to my email. 
Transportal
I am working for them now and I really like them.
Transportal

Are you referring to Transportal?  I work for them.  They ROCK. :)

I agree with the last post - call and chat with the recruiter.  She is very nice and has had this issue going on for awhile.  I had a friend who tested (seasoned MT) and failed!  She was so devastated, but called and talked to the gal and is now working there.  I took the test - knowing the answer to the one question that was messed up, so I ended up passing and now I too work there!!!  Guess they should get that little issue figured out!!!  Good company though!

You heard???? And you are passing on rumors??? Shame on you. TransPortal is a wonderful company to work for. Not all supervisors assign work late at night and they should not be hassling or sending rude emails. If one is it is an isolated incident and I am sure it has been taken care of. The platform works great if you have enough memory in your computer, people can easily do 1200+ lines per day once they get the hang of it, which does take 2-3 weeks. To work there for 1 week and then spread lies is shameful. You are missing a great work opportunity if you do not check them out.

Transportal has IC status with or without taxes.  Excellent company (I think).  Full time status is considered 1200 lines minimum.

Hello,


I have a phone interview coming up with TransPortal, and I was wondering if any TransPortal MTs out there could comment on the Scribe platform.  Has it gotten any better to deal with? I have read some past posts both here and on the CS forum about it being a pain in the neck.  All other info on the company seems to be great aside from the platform.  I'm hoping to hear that they have the bugs worked out by now...  (especially assuming I have Vista!)


Any info, pros, or cons will be appreciated!


Thanks! 


Any information about TransPortal

I have a phone interview with transportal today and I was wondering if anyone knows of that company or works for them. I would appreciate any information.


Thanks!


Transportal-Anyone work for them

I have just been offered a position with Transportal but I do not know anything about them.  I am not finding much on this board about them either.  If anyone can tell me about them I would really appreciate it.


Thanks so much


How long have you been w/Transportal

Thanks for responding.  How long have you been with them?  Do they pay by check, direct deposit, or do you have to get a prepaid VISA card? 


Thanks again


 


Has anyone heard from TransPortal? nm

I work for TransPortal...
I am currently working with this company. While I have only been employed with them for about a month, I am very happy so far...good accounts, the platform is Scribe, and QA is very helpful. Hope this helps!
Transportal hiring. sm
To those working for Transportal or with knowledge, can you email me the address to send my resume?  I did look on their website but does not seem to be an address for resumes?
Transportal Question
Does anyone have any information on the benefits that Transportal (in NC) provides its employees? Insurance? Paid vacations? Etc.? Thanks!
Whey do you say to stay away from TransPortal?
Did you work for them or know something about them?
Anybody ever tested recently with Transportal?
I tested with Transportal and on the VERY beginning of the test (you know, the REALLY easy questions) it said I failed and suggested that I go to their partner company Career Step to better my transcription skills and try again.  I went back and reviewed and looked up my answers and every single one was right.  So, I went and took another test for them and AGAIN it did the same thing.  Anybody else every experience this?
transportal is a great company
I have worked for them for about five months now and have had nothing but a GREAT experience with them. I am a seasoned Transcriptionist and have been on many platforms. Scribe is great, not perfect by any means, but it is great. It is fast. It is based in MSWord. No, you may not get paid for demographics, but how hard is it to enter the name and MR# and DOS??? Come on? Some accounts you check the schedule, find the name, and it automatically loads. How tough is that?

If you have any experience in working in Word you can work in Scribe w/o any problem whatsoever. I can EASILY Make my line counts in short order.

Also, regarding line counts, they are there, always have been. Unless you have a job that goes to QA then you have to wait a bit to see that line count come in, but I have never been cheated out of any lines that I can assure you.

The one and ONLY thing I had to complain about was being on QA for a long period of time unnecessarily.

Of all the companies that I have worked for, and trust me I have tried a lot of them, this one by far beats them all. The management staff are awesome, the dictators are awesome, the platform is great. What more can I say.
United, Archivus, Transportal. sm

I did look up prior posts on these companies but did not find the answer to this question.  Do any of these companies hire IC?  Do these companies base full time on line count or hours if they have employee status?


Thanks for your help.  I am trying to narrow down my search.  I appreciate it.


Reposting about TransPortal - Please reply

I'm reposting this in hopes that someone will see this and give me updated info on TransPortal. I have tested with them and should hear back from them this week.  I've read everything in the archives, but I was hoping for some updated info about their platform.  My other post got buried under the MDI and T posts.  (Not knocking their posts, by the way, as I feel sorry for what they are dealing with...)


Anyways, here is what I originally posted a while back... 


 


Hello,

Any info, pros, or cons will be appreciated!



 


Thanks! 


phone interview with transportal tomorrow.... sm

If anyone has any info before I interview tomorrow, please let me know.  My biggest concer is the platform.  I can type 1200 lpd with no problems, but every platform I've tried in the past seems to produce nothing but dinking around all day instead of $$$.  Hopefully this one will be different.  The test doctors sounded great.


Thanks much,


Debbie


Has anyone heard of TransPortal Transcription in North Carolina? (sm)

Any info about steady accounts, benefits, flexible scheduling from anyone who may work there would be greatly appreciated.  TIA.


Any recent info on MedTrans Unlimited? newest archived info is 9 months old... m

Has anything changed in 9 months? Particular worries are the invoice/pay time; one post mentioned 2 to 3 week wait and another post stated 1 week. Info from the company states pay is sent out 10 days after the last day of the billing period, but we all know what is said and what is done isn't always the same. Another concern is the platform; some mentioned it was slow and cumbersome. They have 2 platforms from what I can gather.. Are they both slow? It seemed like certain specialties were done on certain platforms, or at least that is what I got out of the archives. I really hate to jump from the frying pan to the fire so any info would be VERY much appreciated.. the good, bad, and the ugly! TIA!!


Any Axolotl employees willing to share info., platform, ESL %, etc. All info greatly appreciated. sm

Along with the platform, ESL %, pay range, lpd required, split shift or 12-24 hour window available, I would be interested in knowing your personal experience with this company, what type of relationship you have with supervisors and other coworkers, etc.  Otherwise, the all the 411. 


Thanks!


Current info on Diskriter?? Past info was very mixed. Either MTs hated it or liked it, does anyone

love working there and why? Do you easily meet your incentive pay or as past people have said, the ESL are so bad that you never meet the line count. I need current and new information. Isnt there a company out there that has a handful of happy employees or does all of them have both the haters and lovers. It is so hard to sort out fact from fiction sometimes and all of us have different expectations. It kind of goes along with the one man's junk is another man's treasures theory, I suppose.


Any new info on Amphion? Archive search doesn't provide new info (sm)
Looking for a part-time position with decent pay and decent workflow. There's nothing new in the archives.
Need info on eMTS out of Florida. Any info would be appreciated!

Any new updates on Focus for QA? Good info/bad info? sm msg
I checked the archives and read all the messages.  Have things changed for the better here?  Is there steady, reliable work?  Able to make any decent money?  Thanks!
Any info on Sten-Tel..not much info
Any info is appreciated.
Sorry, but I want info, lots of info...
before I make any decisions about what comes next in my work life.

Would you like fries with that, Sir? Welcome to WalMart! How'm I doing so far? Do I sound sincere yet? (At least these two companies are, and always will be, USA-based.)
I'd like some info as well.
TIA
Would like info
Please send me some info too. orangeblossom@charter.net
I would appreciate info also.
I am from Chicago office and have heard nothing about this.   Thanks
Does anyone have any info on...
Digital Transcription, Inc.  I am looking into a part-time job and need to know how this company is to work for.  Thanks.
Here's some info...

I asked the same question a couple days ago and got some VERY VERY negative responses.  I actually told the recruiter that they had a negative reputation on these boards and she seemed flabergasted.  I needed an employee position and they hire only IC.  Pay is 9 cents/65 char line with spaces.  They have 2 hospital accounts they are hiring for; one they will send you a computer and you will use their requipment.  The other requires purchase of a C-phone.  They are standard 4 hospital.  You must commit to a minimum line count (1000 lines per day).  No benefits.  Direct deposit twice a month. 


I was not impressed and was glad when i discovered they were only looking for IC.


Hope this helps.


 


Anyone have info on All-Med?nm

Any info on OSI....
Good or bad, platform, etc.  Thanks
Info on SS
They are a very good company to work for.  I have been with them as an Editor for 7 months.  Pay is very good.   Unfortunately I don't believe they pay for spaces, but a lot of companies do not anymore, so therefore, you would have to decide if that is acceptable to you or not.  You can get a very flexible work schedule.  The only thing they ask is that you work when you are scheduled.  For a while, there was a lot of emails being sent out, but that has significantly decreased since certain people are gone now.  Every company has its ups and downs as we can read on these boards every day.  SoftScript is not perfect, but they are not as bad as everyone makes them out to be either.
Anyone have any info on
A search of the archives produced very little information, but I have seen them advertising several times.
Thanks for the info

Any info on E-MTS?
Thanks.
Thanks for the info.....
Do you use the C-phone or are you on another account?
Need info

Can anyone tell me if there is such a thing as a "slow time" when typing IMEs?


TIA!


thanks for this info . .
even tho' I'm not the person who originally asked. I've also been looking for ways to submit writings, but didn't know who was on the up-and-up (should be hypenated, right?) on the net. This helps.
Thanks for the info!
