I'd just like to add - binca Posted: Jul 8th, 2019 - 3:24 pm In Reply to: Dear Integrity Transcription, - Just FYI:
that I don't believe there is any "competition" between transcription companies. When was the last time any MT out there had more than one offer and one employer offered you a higher rate if you'd work for them instead of their "competitor?" I'm highly suspicious that all of these companies have sat down together, agreed on and fixed the pay rate for MTs at sub-minimum wage levels to boost their profit margins. I don't know of any other service provided anywhere that LOWERS their rates over time. If it didn't pay well, why would these people keep their transcription service? Business people are out to make money and since VR took over, their line to MTs was that they could cut our pay 60% because VR was "easier." Anyone who has done VR for any length of time knows it's usually just as much work as straight typing, and often more work. I made 16 cents per line straight typing in 1993, now it's 7.5 or 8? Not buying it.
