Payment for ADT info - incensed
Posted: Jun 06, 2011
Does anyone else get paid for the info they enter in to ADT? I found out recently that we do not......

No ADT info, no cc's, no headings in the headings list, no number when using number list, and also we only get paid for one space after a period.
By the way... they cut all of this without even telling us! Nice hey?
isn't that illegal? - incensed

Seriously, isn't there legal action that could be taken? A requirement to do our job right (99% accuracy) and yet do not get paid for it?
I guess my understanding is "if we dont like it, leave" - sm

I believe they are going to keep doing more of the cuts until we are at Indias wages.
Yeah, in speaking with my CCM, - incensed

as I was rattling off all the issues I had, all I heard back was - silence. No comment at all. Actually kinda feel sorry for them on one hand, they have to know how bad it is and yet they want to keep their jobs - so they say nothing..... until their time comes!
I don't feel sorry - for the CCMs necessarily

I happen to have a fairly decent one no in that I never hear from her (literally). But in the past I had one who gave me every excuse in the book from spring break, to MDs were sick or MDs were on vacation or "snow birds" returning home, or overstaffed, etc., etc. as to why I kept getting NJA. This went on for 3-4 months and when it got to the point that I had work for 1-2 hours a day and I inquired of her about partial unemployment, she said hang on, hang on, the problem is that the account is on lock down because QA is behind on their audits and we are supposed to have a monthly audit and until that is done, I can't get you a back up account, etc. THAT went on for another 2 months and finally I got a call from her one afternoon sounding very stressed (and sheepish) saying that we "lost" the account (whether to India or another MTSO she did not say) and that I had 2 choices: Be switched to another account and start working nights and weekends or quit. Needless to say, i switched accounts, but that just goes to show that I think they are not honest with us on where this work is going. I have heard every excuse except that aliens have come down and stolen the work from MQ. I am however, expecting to hear that one some day too. I sympathize with the original poster of this thread because what she described happened to me too.
Ditto for all the excuses names - MQMT1

I too heard many excuses for months and months. It's to the point where I've had so many CCMS in a short period of time that I don't believe most of what any of them say anymore. My favorite excuse for NJA that I got once was "It's a slow time of year, you know, after the holidays" and this was 2 weeks after the "holidays."
nor headings, nor carbon copy info, . . . . . - no name

I wish we could all "strike" and say we weren't going to complete those particular portions of the report if we are not paid for them. Too bad that we work in a virtual environment; if we were actually office employees, I am sure there would have been an uprising by now.......
CCM/QA always harping on ADT info needing - sm

to be perfect and need to read CP instructions re ADT but we don't get paid anything for this. If it is so important they SHOULD be paying us for it. I'm surprised it's legal they can do this. After all, it is part of our keystrokes and time and an extremely important part of the job. Only at MQ.
Yeah, seems that if we type it, it is a keystroke - and should be paid. But

about 25% of the report is stuff we don't get paid for anymore.
I am very upset right now. I just got an e-mail stating that my checkwill be late for a week. I have looked long and hard to find a MT job and work my "buns" off to keep it. I am very frustrated, but also feel stuck. I know how hard the MT jobs are to find....like to have never got this one. My question is what do you say to someone who tells you that? My employer is a small contract transcription company and I am the only person who does the work for him/her. A ...
How long does it usually take for you to receive your check from TTD through the mail? I know it depends on where you live, but I live on the west coast and TTD is located in CA, so I am thinking it shouldn't take that long for the check to get to me if it was sent out Monday the latest. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks! ...
I need some advice on what to do. I have been working for a service since last July and its been pretty good since but now and then my checks were coming late - sometimes a week late. Lately this has been pretty much happening the last several paytimes, such as now, as I am waiting for my check from the end of October. I have been emailing but not getting any response as to even acknowledege the issue. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to go about handling this and if there is someone I ...
Anybody else have a "makeup payment" amount included in their pay check? These checks are SOOOO confusing. Anyone know where they include any shift differential amount? Thanks. ...
I've noticed this Make up payment field in my extraordinarily confusing paystub LOL. What the heck is that? I think it may actually be bringing me up to minimum wage because I live in MA and its higher than the feds. anybody know?
...
So, I have worked for this person since 2007. In the beginning everything was WONDERFUL. Great to work for, plenty of work, fairly decent wage, etc. Now for the last couple of years pay has been increasingly late. I was originally set for pay days on the 1st and the 15th. A couple of years ago it changed to the 5th and the 20th, which is fine, I can handle that. that started being late so I said I would change it in my mind to the 10th and the 25th so I wouldn ...
I worked for a small transcription company. They only paid me for half of the work I did for them and refuse to pay me for the rest. When I try to collect from them they tell me to sue them in small claims court if I want the balance. Any suggestions to get my payment? I am in one state and they are located in another state. ...
I have a signed contact with a company as of 3/15/2011 according to the contact payment for services is to be made within 5 business day of receipt of the invoices. I have done work for them, I have submitted my invoices to them for payment. My first invoice was dated 3/17/2011, payment was posted to my Paypal account and then canceled the day it was to be released. I continued to do work for her giving the benefit of the doubt but here is is almost a month later and I can' ...
I actually thought they were due this month, just pulled out my vouchers and saw they were due last month. I actually watched a video with an accountant and he said you don't have to pay quarterly taxes, they just set it up to help you out. I was wondering though if anyone has actually ever missed a payment and what the outcome was. Trying to find something on the internet but not finding anything except penalties if you owe at the end of the year. ...
Hi,
If you have used an attorney to collect payment on an invoice as an IC, I am curious to know how long it took to obtain payment and if you pursued any other damages such as the attorney's fees, bank charges incurred, etc., etc. and how long the process took.
I am out of patience with a small MTSO who pays consistently 1-4 days after payday and ready to pursue any and all avenues necessary to obtain payment since pay is late again and I have received no repsonse to my inquiries r ...
Did some weekends ER reports to DW Medical Transcription, Atlanta, GA from June 20 to Dec 15. They still owe $1,400 for Oct to Dec work. Their accountant lied "Your check has been mailed. Please do not send any Emails telling me when and what I need to mail to you" and the owner/manager, Felicia made false promise “A check will go out to you next Friday on the 15th of this month”. NOT RECEIVED THE PAYMENT SO FAR AND NO RESPONSE FOR MY EMAILS. Their attorney said ...
I have used Express Scribe (the free version) for the past several years...to make a long story short...a few weeks ago, it asked me to pay for it...I tried..said the payment could not be processed...so I uninstalled and reinstalled it and it worked fine...this morning I wake up to start transcribing and now it will not let me install my footpedal. There is no phone number to contact anyone, and I hate how there was no warning it just all of a sudden will not allow me to install it, saying that ...
Does anyone know what (if anything) I am supposed to do with this information? The MTSO has NEVER been on time paying me, so this is no big surprise (payment was due April 1), but supposedly the ACH payment was made 2 days ago and she gave me a confirmation number, but I'm not sure what that means to me other than the fact that once again I will go into another weekend unpaid. (sigh) ...
Has anyone who was hired on at Ascend/Portal Health Care LLC during the last hiring received their payment for Phase I? I am beyond outraged right now; just told that I will have to wait until after the 15th for my first payment to be processed b/c processing ended on March 20th despite repeated emails being sent out by payroll stating that submission after the 20th wouldn't affect the schedule of payment. Not to mention, I submitted my invoice twice and asked for re ...
For those of you thinking of going with FN out of California, when you get your employment package, you will find that 2 lines of work equals 1 line of editing--in other words, you must do twice as much work to get paid for a line of editing. Of course, you do not find that out until you have invested time and interest with this place. ...
Is anybody else suffering each month because their client is not paying for completed transcription services ? Or do i contract for the only client that does not pay? What do we do? ...
check this one out. Mmodal misses bond payment. Maybe that's why there is no work all of a sudden. Might be they're going under.

Need to know any info ASAP on I think its called Global Info Systems or something like that out of Texas. Lots of clinic work, but low low line rate offered. Need to know about management, stability, VR reality, workload, response from tech support, etc. Also, are these clinics in India? Thanks for any help! ...
It isn't easy to get off some of the spam and phone call lists when you click for more information about some of these courses. I've found that for me, it isn't worth it to get that information if I am giving up my privacy. Some of these people are relentless! You can't get away from them once they get your information.
There is one in particular that makes sure you hear from them every day in one form or another. They become your best friend, even if you weren't lookin ...
I am testing with GIS this evening, does anyone have any information on this company.
I am currently working with TTS, they do not even pay 4 CPL for editing. I feel like this business has become a legalized form of slavery. The only business where with over 10 years of experience, your pay goes down. ...
