Avoid Sciance - It's a Scam

Have an interview today and read here that success there is region-impacted. Please share if you know the region to avoid!! ...

Mass hire and then run out of work and by that, I mean completely out, not just slow work. What a joke!!! ...

DicTran had few reviews online so when we looked into purchasing their platform we could only rely on the deceptive sales presentation from their owner Bill. The company claimed to be able to satisfy all our needs but after we paid them communication became a major issue. Our MT's hate the platform since it forces them to use their custom software which has numerous errors. When we try to contact them for support they just might as well not exist. The worst part of the experience is we pay ...

Been with this company for 11, almost 12, years and now we have new QA who have NO clue what they're doing. No report is sent through without their checking it and messing it up first. And no two QA make the same changes. It's so frustrating to love a job and then dread working due to the unprofessional editing. No wonder they're losing accounts left and right. We're normally without work and I think my loyalty showed I was going to be there, at ...

I made the mistake of doing some work for Transcription Stars (based out of India) in March. I still have not been paid, and they are trying to bilk me of my money. They do not pay competitive rates, and are rather unreasonable in their TaTs. ...

I'd avoid Softscript like the plague. They are about the worst company I've ever had the misfortune of working for. They turn over staff constantly, the backstabbing and nasty emails from "management" never ceases, and finally, they set you up for failure. Always out of work, PTO is terrible. I could go on and on, but will not. I worked for them for 2 long and tortuous years, and I would not recommend them to anyone. ...

I've had a really hard time lately with this... Lots going on at home so my mind just wanders. My paychecks are awful now as a result... What do you do to keep yourself from getting distracted (bills, email, Facebook, staring at a wall LOL, etc)?? I really need something to get me motivated and back on track again. :( TIA! ...

I can see from all these posts that they have made it as difficult as possible to understand this new pay plan. Can anybody tell me when it goes into effect and when we individually will know what our personal rates will be? TYIA. ...

I tried to get my hours switched just by a half hour earlier this week. I normally work 6 am to 11 am central time and i tried to get her to change it to 5:30 am to 10:30 am. Instead she emails me and wants me to change my hours to 12-5 pm because supposedly 90% of her workers work the night shift. If so many MTs are working the night shift, then why am I constantly running out of work during the day hours? She asks me to help out today by working an ext ...

1. Stop sending our work overseas. 2. Stop hiring new MTs (yes, we see the multiple ads) It's very simple. Provide us with work during our regular scheduled hours and you pay zero MUP. Problem solved. ...

I recently worked for Saince for a few months, and was recently laid off. I feel like I have been not told the truth from the beginning about this company. They said they were NOT a company owned from India, but yes they are. They said they wanted full-time employees, but when I was laid off they said that all of their employees are considered "part-time." I was also told I was caught in a numbers crunch and I was caught in the middle. They also told me they wanted ...

Avoid Saince. They are intrusive, constantly calling and they don't pay. They hijacked my PC for 33-1/2 hours and their paperwork said they pay $10 an hour and then today I was told they only pay a flat rate $100. HELLO!! THEY OWE ME $335 BEFORE TAXES THANK YOU! They pay by black character only which means you don't get paid for spaces so you type 22 reports a day and average about 600 lines. Nice! When asked if you get paid according to the line co ...

Do you ever find it annoying when you are getting enough work each day in the pool and all of a sudden some of the doctors or accounts "disappear", and when you ask your boss about it, they do not respond to your question? It is not that I am inconsistent with my coverage on the accounts or doing poor-quality work, I am off of QA and do not get any negative feedback, or any feedback for that matter, from the client. ...

Okay, so done with Mmodal. I am seriously looking for a new job. What companies do I avoid? Are there any companies worth looking at out there? I could use some guidance with this since my past experience has been with mostly small local companies, that is until MM bought them out. Oh, I wish for the good old days. Thanks for all your help :) ...

Remember the email we got from Corporate waiving the 90-day wait period to apply for advancement of Tier III's to MME and allowing til April 30 to do it? With all the lay offs going on, anyone think a bigger axe will fall once May 1 rolls around and the Tier III's that did not do this will be let go? From the way things look with all the lay offs, maybe this is one way to hang onto our jobs. Thoughts anyone? ...

just curious... I see the scam ad for belly fat on main screen here now. This "julie" person does the exact same advertising for several products - same wording. There's no such person, no such TV station. If you look closely, top of screen has word ADVERTORIAL on status line. That is their blanket disclaimer that pretty much means it's all made up, not a factual person or situation. Just a story. Why is it on this site? ...

I've done medical trans for 20 years, QA for 10, feel pretty stupid that I failed the online test for WordZxpressed and was referred to CareerStep. Is this a scam? ...

A company called Global Marketing Specialist Group has been trying to post ads repeatedly. They are NOT an MTSO company. They want you to pay $165 for a "background check" and then they will give you a list of potential employers or clients. They are trying to post more ads using alternative e-mail addresses such as gmsgtranscription@. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS SCAM. They are not being up front with you and are simply trying to make money from you. You shoul ...

Is anybody else going through this? Transform used to be a great company, been there for years making good pay, good accounts. Lately they have just insituted this fancy new "pay" system where our base pay has been decimated but we get to make up some of it up by jumping through all these hoops, like typing more than 1000 lines gets you a percentage increase (percentage of what), using typing keyboard "shortcuts" gets you more crumbs here and there. In the end we really don ...

Hello everyone, I've never posted on here before, but a good friend suggested I do so. I've been working for a company, Astat Transcription, and I fear that they are not going to pay me the last two paychecks that I am due. I gave them two week's written notice of my intentions to leave and they asked me to continue working for two weeks, which I did. They tell me they sent me an email asking me to stop work on Nov. 30 and that they would mail my final check, bu ...

It was a get-rich scheme from the very beginning. Brilliant, really. Except that when they championed the offshoring of our work, and the lowering of our wages, they made it so that most MTs with anything between the ears but empty space would question the value of the BOS, the validity of the CMT, and the very existence of this so-called "for-the-MTs" organization. S - Superficial,C - Contrived,A - andM - Meritless! ...

I was contacted by a company wanting to interview by chatting. I did all that, and it sounded so great. Set your own hours, work as much as you want, etc. All I had to do to get started was pay $295 for the software they use. I did some fast Google searches in another window and decided not to. They pointed out that as an Independent Contracter, I was responsible for my own equipment. I pointed out that I bought my own hardware, which is almost universall ...

If you applied to a position regarding, this time path and hist transcription, and sent your contact information to a karen_hill19@yahoo.com, you will hear back from her and be asked to add a David Winkler to your yahoo messenger, wherein he will ask to do an interview with you online. At the end of the interview he will tell you the following: davidwinkleronline:‎ You will be undergoing a (1) one week training and orientation which will commence as soon as you have all ...

I recently applied for a job on MTJobs.com and received a reply a couple of days later that asked me to add a friend to yahoo messenger for an online interview. I added the person and went through a 40+ minute interview process. At the end of the interview process, I was offered the position. They would be sending me the documentation in the mail. Along with this package there was going to be included a check for the computer system. I informed the person that I had ...

When you click on web address, it brings you to a blog page. I also searched for a long time and absolutely nothing comes up for this company. When calling phone number, name does match answering machine message though. Sent resume and it was returned as delivery failure. ...

They've been sticking me with 1 "error" just about every other week. That 1 "error" brings my pay down to just about 8 cpl, very close to minimum wage every other week. I got to thinking. With the old pay plan I was getting the quarterly bonus almost every time. That means I had at least 99.5% accuracy for 3 months at a time. So I ran a report on my QA jobs for the past 3 months. My QA accuracy came to 99.6%. Same accuracy as on the old pay plan, but yet I'm such a bad transcrip ...

I recceived a letter the other day as an advertisement stating "Work from the comfort of your home! Typist needed. 1,000's of immediate openings available. No experience necessary. Flexible hours, FT or PT, competitive pay. Must be ablet to type 85 words or more per minute. Must be detailed oriented, accurate, and have good listening skills. Typing test will be administered. Most positions require that applicant reside in the US. I ...

Nuance recruited me with a promise of six paid holidays, the usual major U.S. holidays. It includes these holidays in its (new) Employee Handbook. However, I have just learned that Nuance does NOT provide paid holiday pay per se. It provides a measley "incentive" of 25% above usual line pay only if one works the holiday. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY'S RECRUITERS. This company's benefits are the worst I have seen in the industry. Since hospitals have b ...

BE LEARY OF THE AD ON MT JOBS FOR CYPRESS MEDICAL, THEY ARE A SCAM! THEY CANNOT EVEN CONSTRUCT A SENTENCE, WILL NOT ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE COMPANY, GIVE A HISTORY OR HAVE A WEBSITE OR PROVIDE A PHONE NUMBER OR A CEO, OR MANAGER'S NAME! THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO WITH A GATEWAY AD, AND THEY STUCK ME FOR $1200! PLEASE DO NOT ANSWER THIS AD, MY COMPUTER WAS COMPROMISED RIGHT AFTER I RESPONDED TO THE AD! ...

Wow! Got an email from CCM about someone calling an MT trying to get access to computer as if they were a technician. Did anyone else get it? That is crazy. They sure are bold about scamming people. I know the voices of the technicians that work on our accounts. Be careful! ...
