I did not sign. I would like to know who did sign though.

Did not sign, did not communicate after second conference call (sm) - shadow

[ In Reply To ..]
and never heard a word or had any further communication from them. Just confirming, to my mind that they never "really" wanted any of us.
Not even a confirmation of receipt of contract.
People skilz they haz not.

I am another who did not. NM - OTIperson

I didn't sign with them. I did reply, however, stating that there was no feasible way to support myself and my two children on 6.5 cpl VBC. Didn't receive anything in response. No surprise.

I didn't sign. I listened to the first call. No contact since.

I decided to send them the contract e-mail back stating I would not be accepting and why - that with 20 years experience, I will quit the industry before going that low and that there are still other jobs out there willing to pay more (even if it is only for 6 months to a year that they told me it would last). I said if they get no takers and want to consider offering us more, please feel free to contact me. Hopefully, we all do the same. Good luck. ...

Apparently I am probably with one of the "sister" companies in this transition. Like you guys, I am trying to weigh out my options here. I'm reading the comments about the offer from Mercedes. Does anyone know if RecordsOne is offering pretty much the same offer? I feel like if the "sister" company keeps me onboard, to go on the other accounts they have, are they really able to "absorb" another MT. I feel like the relative you let sleep on the couch just beca ...

I listened to the Mercedes town hall. What did you think? They did say VBC was coming. Does this sound like Bayscribe to you? They said VBC was coming, but rate of pay would not change. I wonder how that will work. They promised nothing would change as of October 1. I wonder what it will be like on January 1. ...

On reading the posts below, if an MT makes 8 cpl and pay is cut down to 6.5 cpl, that is an approximately 20% pay cut. Then, going from a 65-character line with spaces to VBC (a 65-character line without spaces), that is an approximately 30% pay cut. So, 20% plus 30% equals an overall 50% pay cut. Can that possibly be correct? ...

I have received an offer from this company and she said it paid 0.065 cpl straight transcription. Well, I start reading over the new hire paperwork and it says pay is 0.065 VBC. So, I am not working for somewhere if they don't pay spaces. I email her and say I am no longer interested. She emails back and says that they do pay for spaces and that it has something to do with Bayscribe which i know nothing about. She wants me to reconsider? What do yo ...

OK..... It's an orthopedic chart note. Patient has a chief complaint of hip pain. Dictated: He has a negative [s/l fair, fairs, varus?] sign, a negative fabere sign. It doesn't sound like fadir; I'm not hearing that "d." I already had to leave two medication blanks and hate to leave another one for an orthopedic sign that I feel like I should know! Thank you in advance for your help and ideas! ...

For the past three years my husband an I have hosted his company Christmas party here at our home. The company and employees make all the arrangements, including sending a cleaning service the day before! It's great. All I have to do is sit back and watch as my home is transformed into a beautiful Christmas party venue. This year he has a new boss. She called me just a bit ago and was asking for help with finding a cake. (She's new the the ...

The other evening at the grocery store, I picked up the newest issue of Employment Guide. You've probably seen it - it's usually by the doors to the store, and it's a nationwide publication. It used to list actual job openings for the local area. Now, though, it seems to be mainly an ad newspaper for schools offering career training. Anyway, what struck me about this issue is that none of the schools that have always advertised in this paper list medical transc ...

I had an interview last week with a big national company, recruiter was unprepared, kept making excuses as to why and then was supposed to send more info, but that didn't happen. Then was supposed to call again today, no call. I'm going to take that as a sign that this is not a good place to work. Oh Lordy, I really need a job! Any advice please. Just email me. ...

From all of the negativity about Nuance, I was very leery about accepting a position with them, but finances prevail.
