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.

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.

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
Transportal info
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.
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!

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.
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...

Would love to hear from anyone who works for this company. Pay? Benefits? Work load? Do they provide equipment? Any info is greatly appreciated.
United
I tested with them and they had one very unreasonable transcription test (one particular note) that totally turned me off. Horrible sound quality on top of a heavy ESL accent. I was afraid that was a hint on what was to come with that company so I never finished the test.
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

What is the deal with United Tran? Is it a reputable company? Reading an ad from them, I thought it sounded good; but then when I went to their website, I noticed some misspellings. Just made me wonder. What does anyone know about them?
United Transcription
Recruiter, Melissa, had me do a questionaire first. after she was satisfied with this, she wanted to send me a pre-employment screening test. However, it looked like she was only going to send it to me if I had planning on taking it RIGHT THEN AND THERE just because it was timed and needed to be back in 24 hours (we are about 6 hours apart, and I do have another job). She did this twice. I waited for days. Why couldn't she just send the test as an attachment to download like NORMAL companies would?????
I finally emailed the company and told them how unprofessional they were, particularly Melissa, and that they actually did me a favor.
United Transcription
Can anyone tell me anything about United Transcription? I've done a search and cannot come up with much. TIA!
I think there is a United Transcription in NC, not SC. (sm)
... and there is another company out of India. The one in NC is not a scam, though they are a young company. When I talked to them, it sounded like they used fabulous software. The bad thing is that they still don't seem to have a website, which I think they should so people could more easily distinguish them from the Indian company.
Does anyone know anything about United Transcription?
The ad looks like it's a good company to work for, but looks can be deceiving. Anyone have personal experience with them currently or in the past? TIA 
United Transcription
Does anyone currently work for this company or has worked for this company in the past? If so, give me the good, the bad, the ugly and otherwise!
Thx
United Tran
Yes...I did research on United Tran through the BBS and what I found is that they are out of Florida. This is a company that has changed their name. I can't remember but it seems that the origional company was out of Colorado then moved to Florida and started under a different name and now it is United Tran. Be careful on this one....look at the BBS report.
United Stinks!
I tried to work for United for a few days. I specified MULTIPLE times I am NOT a morning person. They disrespected me and called ALL DAY, started phoning before 7 a.m. to ensure I don't sleep at all since I went to bed after 6 a.m.!!!! They sent an email telling me to phone them when I feel like speaking to them. Great...I won't break any nails dialing the phone - TWO MORE STAFF PEOPLE CALLED ME TO HARASS FURTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why were they calling? To ask why I was not typing right then!!! Well duh!!! Second shift begins at 3 p.m. my time and all this drama was going on at 1 p.m. my time!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!!!! GET AN EDUCATION!!!!!!!! LEARN THE TIME ZONES JERKS!!!!!!!!! So, for the money and the harassment and the sweat shop atmosphere, I recommend any other company. This one is not worth the hassle, the time, or the energy since the staff is disrespectful, hateful, inflexible, inconsiderate, unprofessional and unacceptable. Is the money even worth it? No, for my 15 years' experience, they offered 0.08 a line. Oh..another thing...I told them I would work this weekend - they don't have an auto job feed so it took over 3-4 hours for someone to 'send me work since their system is antiquated. Yes, you have to rely on someone to send you work in order to have anything to type and then they send you 2 jobs, you type, you request more work, and you get more work after having downtime of 2 hours. So...in 8 hours, you are lucky to have typed 5-8 jobs. So, to get up to 15 jobs, count on 12-16 hours a day!!!!
United Transcription
