I think Medtrans Unlimited pays the highest sm

Posted By: PhoenixMT on 2006-10-21
In Reply to: MTs being paid over $0.10 cpl - MT

They are in Austin,TX. Once at six months, it is 1.70 per regular minute and 2.12 a stat minute. On lines accounts it is .08 reg, .10 stat gross line. The company is strict and picky, and the software technical. However, you can easily make $1,000 a week there.

My favorite speciality is the office who dictates it and pays the highest line rate.
It's the money, honey, that matters to me.
MedTrans of America
Does anyone presently, or in the past, work for MedTrans of  America? 
Regarding Integrity MedTrans

Hi,


We did more than 2000 lines to IntegrityMedTrans last week.  After that no response in chat and no response for mail ( mail bouncing also)... People who are doing this company plz be aware.


If u have any details, plz mail us or post reply


Regarding Integrity MedTrans

They told us in trial period also they are going to pay us 6 cpl...


Hey man... come onnnnnnnnn....2000 lines....


 


Geez, Kate/Medtrans, are you OCD?

Their unlimited plans aren't really unlimited, which is

the problem.  Their limit is 5000 minutes and if you work full-time you'll need approximately 10,000 minutes. 


There have been several people who have received enormous bills from AT&T because they deemed their use as inappropriate. 


VR pays half of what typing pays...
If you would read her post more closely she said she does VR, which pays half of what straight typing does.  I do VR and have made 4 cpl, so 5 is actually good and 4-5 is an industry standard, and may be even less if you are an employee.  The problem is that you have to double your line counts in order to make decent money, which is not always easy.  I embrace VR because I like it better than straight typing, but it is not productive for everyone, no matter how hard you try.
Highest pay is anything you get paid. They still owe me
.
All I can say is make sure you have the highest - sm
Kbps modem available, 56?. That is what I use, the highest connection I can get is 44. If I get lower than that I just disconnect and try again until I get that or at least 33. Even if you do get satellite, most companies don't allow that anyway, so it's DSL, cable or no job. DSL is so close to me now, but I still don't have it, a friend has it who is 6 miles from me, but I don't, something to do with the towers (though I have 1 about 1.5 miles from me). What I find funny is Verizon offering high-speed DSL that is only 756 Kbps, that is not much faster than I get now with dial-up, makes me wonder a bit about it, thought DSL was faster than that, or are there different levels of DSL like dial-up connections? Anyway, I feel your pain, all I can say is try to find a job that uses FTP, has a 24 hr. TAT, and then it does not matter what type of connection you use. My daily downloads take anywhere from 5-30 minutes depending on the size of my voice files, don't matter though. I don't see why it matters to any MTSO what you have since usually you are working on a file while another is downloading, there ususally is no downtime due to the length of the download other than that first one. Whatever.
35 years here and highest 8
NM
20+ years here and still the highest offered

Consider yourself lucky if you've been offered more than 8 cpl for an MTSO.  Now your own accounts is a different story.  I make way more with my own accounts.


Its the highest rate I have heard of for IC work

I have not heard of rates that high where I live (Tampa, FL.)  The highest I have heard for IC work is 12/13 cpl and thats pretty rare!


If thats pretty common in your area then dont back down, but around here that would be considered very high.


Hope it all works out!


Perhaps vacuuming is your highest calling in life...

I would contact your highest in command. A medical
record is a legal document and could potentially contain info that would contribute to a life/death situation.   If I were in a position of authority she would be gone yesterday. 
AOL lists today that MT is one of highest WAH jobs!!

Look at the model they used...that's sure what the average MT looks like!  LOL

I think I participated in that; certainly fit in the highest %tile in just about all categories.

Doubting this seriously myself. Even the highest producers here don't crank it out that fast. nm

You are taking it literally, which is not what I meant. I would rather not pay the highest price
out there, as I'm on a budget.
How much is the highest/lowest pay for an MT working in CorTmedical? Kindly reply.
 I'm just curious to know how much do they pay an MT who just started working with them. Thanks.
That should highest paid work at home jobs...look at number 7 to see the pic and listing!
That picture sure made me laugh. :)
THANK YOU! That is my point. She still pays taxes, her DH still pays taxes...

so who exactly is getting cheated?  And just who are you talking about when you talk about whether it is "fair" or not.  I don't give a crap how much taxes my neighbor pays.  It's none of my business.  And if I found out they were paying less in taxes than me, I would ask them how they heck are they doing it so I can do it too!


I just want ask, is it necessary to get personal and insult?  You disagree with me, fine.  But I've been called a liar, a cheat, a no-ingetrity thief, my intelligence has been insulted, and I have had my parenting skills questioned.  That is a little over the top.  If you cannot debate an issue without resulting to personal attacks, then YOU are the stunted one!


It is a very good thing that some of you work at home, ALONE!  You are sorely lacking in people skills and diplomacy.  Let me guess, when you worked in the office you were one of those girls who didn't like to share her desk, griped if someone dropped a crumb on your desk, and kept track of everyone's breaks, lunches, and line counts just so you could tattle to the supervisor!  I've worked women like you, it was like working with kindergarteners.  That's why I came home to work.  Do us all a favor, looking in the mirror, count your wrinkles, and realize that this isn't high school anymore!


Lowest runs $900 week, highest $1400 week (sm)
Get paid 12 CPL. Been doing transcription for about 12 years.
I use MCI unlimited
Had checked into vonage but if your cable goes out no phone and u would have to rely on cell phone don't want to do that in my rural area.
I currently use SBC for unlimited LD ... sm

When I signed up, they told me that I couldn't use it for telemarketing, faxing, or connecting to the internet.  Fine ... then 6 months later they tell me I have broken the rules. 


However, there is a happy ending.  I just switched to a business line with them.  They have an unlimited plan for business which is $49.95/month (at least here in Kansas), plus tax and of the extra charges that get tacked on.  I specifically told them that I used it to call in to Maryland to access a dictation system and transcribe, and after talking with a manager, he assured me it was okay.  He did say that it will still probably get flagged as "high usage," but they would put a note on my account.


Hope this helps.  I have also used MCI's The Neighborhood, and they never gave me any flack about what it was used for -- I was assured that "unlimited meant unlimited." 


 


Good luck!


No, unlimited is not really unlimited. They know
They know exactly how long each call was.  I was able to use SBC (which is AT&T long distance) about six weeks before they sent me "the letter."  Now I am switching to Road Runner (Time Warner Cable) digital phone with unlimited LD.
Regarding unlimited LD.
I apologize because I've asked for advice about this here before, but I'm really trying to nail down a plan and just have a few more questions.  I need this for a Lanier account so I'll be using lots of minutes.  I've read about the "unlimited" plans not being so 'unlimited' as in people are getting dropped or charged for going over x amount of minutes.  So my questions are these.  Is there any way I can keep my local phone service but add a LD carrier?  If so, what are best and where can I find them?  Also, I've been looking into phone 'cards.'  I've tried One Suite which is 2.9 cpm.  Good but not a great rate considering how many minutes I'll be using.  I've found Penny Talk online and they're 1 cpm.  Has anyone heard of or tried them?  Of course 1 cpm would be great.  They do charge a connection fee of 69 cents, I believe, but even with that and connecting once or twice a day, I'm thinking that would still be cheaper than 2.9 cpm.  Any help is SO appreciated.  I'm just muddling through trying to figure out how to do this and it be of minimal cost to me.  At this point I think the $25/month unlimited LD is probably not an option (with the amount of minutes I'll be using, they'll probably catch on), so even something that's in addition to my regular phone service but even $50/month would be better than phone cards.  Thanks again for any help!
Not again~Unlimited LD

I need unlimited LD to do my work.  We switched to MCI because AT&T wouldn't allow it. BEFORE we switched to MCI, we had a detailed discussion w/them outlining in great detail exactly WHAT I do and HOW I do it, and that I use a lot of LD minutes.  THis was about 8 or so months ago.  Today I get a letter in the mail saying they've realized we're using it for nonresidential purposes and will cut off our LD.  DH is on the phone arguing up a storm with them since THEY okayed this!  Are there ANY other plans out there aside from a phone card?  Does cable telephone work with MDI-MD phone lines?  I'm so discouraged and frankly, quite worried.  The phone cards can get expensive fast and I HAVE to work.  Money is super tight for us right now and I can't afford to lose so much as a day of work.  Thanks for any help. 


Unlimited LD
Our local cable company offers digital phone service for a flat $39.95 a month and LD is unlimited. If you use cable internet, your cable company probably offers the same thing.
Sure, you can use it if you don't have unlimited LD. In fact, they will sm

set you up with an account and just deduct it out of your check, if you'd like.  Or, at least they used to offer that option.  I'm not sure now.  I have unlimited LD with SBC, so it is not an issue for me anymore.


ATT/SBC has an unlimited package. sm
We use it on 10 lines in our office. It runs $54.99 (or something close to that) every month. It is called Total Solutions or Complete Solutions. You have to ask as they do not offer it unless you ask.
Unlimited LD Service - sm
I use Verizon Freedom.  I am wondering if anyone who uses this service and has had it for quite a while has had any problems with them, as in not wanting to cover their usage or receiving an expected phone bill for usage.  I use about 8 hours per day. 
Netzero.com Unlimited LD
I have this available though have not yet used it. Netzero.com is an internet service provider $9.95 a month. They also have different plan levels depending on your needs from no charge for 50 minute (Ithink it is) to 14.95 a month unlimited.  You need to have them as your internet service provider though. I have not really read up on all the details, but didn't notice charging for minutes or whatever. It is good for phone-to-phone, PC-to-phone etc.  Go to Google and type in netzero.com
Also need C-phone; don't know about unlimited LD.
xx
And this is for unlimited LD for business use?
Do you have a guess about how many minutes they allow you to use? I mean, the so-called unlimited really isn't and when asked they will admit that. I just want to know what to ask for when I call. Thank you!
Does anyone know of a truly unlimited long

distance plan that doesn't involve VoIP?   I'm in the southeast.  I have unlimited LD with BellSouth, but unlimited to them and unlimited to me isn't the same thing and I've heard about the nightmares others have had with the $500 phone bills.  


I've googled and googled and not finding much information about reliable companies that may offer this. 


Transcription Unlimited

 


Hello,

Anyone work for or are familiar with Transcription Unlimited? How much do they pay and what are the transcription systems they use?


Thanks

Still have unlimited with Sprint.
Last time I checked I was close to 6 GB, but I do watch all my TV online.
I have unlimited for my aircard -sm
I asked about a cheaper plan but I exceed anything they offer and need the unlimited. I am on my aircard probably 12+ hours a day though. I am not downloading files constantly but I do stay online so I can google, look up addresses, etc. I average 100-120 minutes of work a day.
Quest has a $25.00 unlimited small
business plan that is very good.  It is $20 for residential, but to be on the safe side, I got the business plan. 
Unlimited long distance...

I know it's been asked before here, and I am searching the archives for info, but wondering if any new feedback about good, cheap, unlimited long distance plans that won't hassle you about using it for transcription, about 6000 to 8000+ minutes per month?  Oh, in the California area.


Thanks!


Does anyone use SBC for unlimited long distance
for transcribing?  What do you pay if I might ask? Do they hassle you about using it fulltime?  Looking into it before I call and inquire about.
AT &T and other co offer unlimited plans

We have an unlimited longdistace plan with AT&T for only $35 monthly I know there are a few other companies that also offer these type of plans. I would definitlly check into them if I had to pay longdistance charges.


Been using The Neighborhood or SBC unlimited for the last 5 years now. sm

I was NOT talking to a telemarketer at SBC.  I originally talked to one (I assume) when I called, but when I explained what I was using it for, I talked with his supervisor.  As long as I am accessing voice files and NOT using it for faxing, accessing the internet, or other "computer to computer" things, it is fine.  I have not had any hassle, except for once, and then when I called and talked to them and changed to a business line, I was fine. 


Hope you have better luck than you have so far.  :-)

Unlimited Long Distance.
What are the best ULD companies and plans out there that are MT friendly? I've heard horror stories! TIA
unlimited long distance
I imagine this has been discussed, so please excuse me, but can anyone steer me in the right direction for a good unlimited long distance service? I have an offer that uses a C-phone and unlimited long distance- I haven't a clue. I appreciate any information. Thanks.
Unlimited long distance
Check out ACC Business on the internet. I have been using them for 6 years. It's the small business service from AT&T and less than 3 cents a minute.
Try it, you'll thank me!
unlimited long distace
MCI has a plan that you can add to your existing local plan. I've had it a while. When I got it, I it was $12.95 per month. I'm not sure if it's available in your area, they also have plans with local and long distance together at a pretty good rate.

I've been using ACC Business, a divsion at AT&T. I pay less than 3 cents a minute. Check it out on the internet.
