Found a way to stop Dell from calling us hourly for awhile anyway.
We have it set up to be able to view our account online with Dell.
I hate Dell. They have the worst customer service. They start calling 3-4 days BEFORE the payment is due and continue to call us every hour on the hour wanting us to pay check by phone. NOT on your LIFE!
Last night, we went online and changed our telephone information on our account. Instead of our phone number, they now have THEIR phone number. Let them call themselves. Wonder how long it will take them to figure that one out.

Telephone solicitors from out of US?
This person who just called had an extremely thick accent and could not understand me, I had to repeat everything at least twice. This person gave the name of "John Green". I asked if they were calling from the United States and he said "yes". The phone number showed an area code in New York, does this assure he is calling from there or can they call from heaven-knows-where through another company's number?
Who cares what solicitors think!
And if they think you are cranky, then maybe they won't have the nerve to stop by!! Solicitors are so annoying!!! I say, get a sign, "NO SOLICITING!"
I don't get many solicitors anymore sm
They don't like meeting my 115-pound golden retriever (yep quite a big boy-he really likes people but has a very mean bark) and my snarling cocker spaniel (he doesn't like people, takes a long time for him to warm up to you). If salespeople do come and if they get pushy, I tell them they have 3 minutes to get lost or I'll turn them loose. I had to resort to this measure 3 years ago when we had a bad hailstorm that destroyed everyone's roofs and siding in the whole town and had roofing and siding people knocking at all hours. No one ever comes back.
Telephone Number ...sm
The number you gave below for Detective Joe Rodriquez is not working...sounds like a fax line...please advise? TIA
Telephone ringing

I had a telephone conversation come through once -
It may have been a walkie - I am pretty sure I saw the guy drive down the street in front of me talking on something - it was very brief, I think probably when he was in very direct range. It was wierd!
Telephone dictation for your clients
Anyone interested in offering toll free dial in dictation to their clients? I found a small company that is offering this service for $45/mo. It seems very reliable and they deliver my dictation files via FTP as a .wav file.
If interested reply back and I'll send you their contact info.
Non-compliance of telephone lines
Has anyone had any difficulty with the new SBC/AT&T? I have been told I do not have many options other than a per minute plan. I have seen a program called CallVantage. Does anyone have any information on this plan?
I live in SC and have Verizon for telephone
and internet. We could get Time Warner Cable also but chose Verizon instead. We have a home phone which is Verizon also. We do not have a long distance carrier such as AT&T since we use cell phones for long distance.
Telephone Record Adaptor
You might want to look into getting a telephone record adaptor that plugs into your laptop sound card. Also would require audio capture software but then the files would be recorded onto your computer and from there you could transcribe them.
It looks similar to a telephone. You use it to dial
directly into the hospital system (usually, can also dial into MTSO system). You have a foot pedal that controls the dictation. You complete a report, sign it off and then get another one. Unless you have an 800 # to dial into, you will need unlimited long distance and most companies that say they offer ULD have a 5000 minute limit, which may not cover you.
You can Google C-phone and find a picture and get more info.
Broadband/Internet Telephone Service
Does anyone use a broadband/internet telephone service for transcription, such as Vonage, Covad, Lingo, SpeakEasy? I have a local long distance account and am looking into this type of service for a monthly flat fee for unlimited minute usage. Otherwise, the long distance fees would eat me alive. Any info on any company, good or bad, would help me tremendously in making my decision. I am researching several via the internet, but once again, any info would help.
Have a save and sane 4th of July!

downloading dictation versus telephone
ive been transcribing 220-250 lines per hour using the following: I dial into the telephone system using a Dictaphone to access the dictations and use Persona Client and Telnet software. It is all just straight typing, the dictation is waiting for me as I don't have to download nething. I get paid by minutes dictated. For example, if I transcribe 1 hour of dictation it would equal 600 lines. 600 lines at 8 cpl = 48.00. I'm lookin elsewhere for employment, and I'm worried about the downloading of dictations (which seems most are doing now-a-days) slowing my daily production down. Does anyone seem to be more/less productive as far as using a telephone to access dictations as opposed to downloading. Also, is there a big difference between getting paid per 65 character line or by minutes dictated. TY
magicjack with Lanier or telephone line - sm
The magicjack did not work with my Lanier, and my friend has dial-up and it would not work for her WITHOUT transcribing equipment, just regular calls. I sent mine back the same day.
Need Company that Turns Telephone Dictation into WAV/DSS Files
Hello,
Can anyone recommend a good company that will take my client's telephone dictation and convert them into WAV or DSS files that I can then access and transcribe?. A company that has good pricing and is reliable. I probably won't have a huge volume to start. Thank you.

Hi, just lately I spoke with a couple of companies who said they re-imbursed for telephone charges..
or supplied "calling cards" for specific accounts -- myself, I am glad to be away from C-phones, I did not have a great fondness for them! Have a good one!
deduct telephone, electric and portion of house payments.
Hope this helps!
My telephone service is VOIP, but it s through my cable service, along with my cable internet. .
We have had VOIP for about a year now and I love it. I really can't tell a difference in traditional service, except the price. One of the best calls of my life was to Bellsouth to cancel our service!
