I had trouble with Chase

I worked for Chase for about 9 months. Let's just say STAY AWAY. VERY AWAY. It was not a good experience. I am still looking for work.

Do you have any more information that you could share? Are they hiring home based transcriptionists? Thanks.

I didn't quite understand what the lady meant by not being registered in New York either.  I was assuming it meant that they weren't registered to take taxes out in New York and she had said she put a call into someone to find out if they could become registered (whatever that means!)  Supposedly, they could still hire me as an independent contractor.  Anyways, I was confused and the way they pay is very confusing.  I wasn't about to sign on with a company and hope that they eventually could give me benefits.  I could be totally wrong in my interpretation of what registering means but that is what I gathered from it.  Sorry so confusing.
Chase
Yes they offered me a position for a lousy 7.28 cents. I have not been paid that for 8 years!! Plus she would not tell me about the account until I tested. I am done with being an employee for many reasons, going IC.
Chase Transcriptions, Inc?
in Ohio.  Any good/bad experiences from actual MTs only who work for them, please.  Thanks.
Anybody know anything about Chase Transcription? TIA

Chase Transcription
I called them today. They pay 4 cents to 9 cents per line. The 9 cents is for 3rd shift. All acute care work. Benefits for full time. Hope this helps.

I saw their ad on another website and applied.  I was contacted the next day but I need benefits and they are not registered in New York which is where I am so I would have to be an independent contractor.  I know they also have a transcription school.  They also have a weird way of paying.  They pay by total Keystrokes and it was very confusing to figure out but when I did, I figured I would be making less there anyways.  Don't know anything else about them but they did get back to me quickly which is better than some other places.
chase is out of Ohio
extremely low pay, but made it sound like i would be paid more by being paid for Keystrokes but after like what was pulling teeth it comes out to exactly 65 characters a line which includes spaces.  hope this helps.

I worked there for 2 years until my insurance rate went from 59/month to 159/month. Had to quit.  Easy platform. When I worked there which was about 2 years ago all accounts had to use the same account specifics.  Made it a lot easier.  where I work now, everyone has something different. some wants things bolded, not bolded, stacked, not stacked, etc.  difficult to remember when you have multiple accounts and you know how QA can be

First I want to thank everyone on here.  I have been working as an IC for a great company for 5 years and have been out of the loop when looking for a job.  Unfortunately, I am having to look for another job to supplement this one as my line count has been cut in half.  This board has been so informative about who to steer clear of and who are the good companies.  In saying that, I have a phone interview with Chast Transcription next week. Was hoping to get some feedback from those who do work or have worked for this company, any hints on what I should ask, etc.  Thanks in advance everyone.
Chase Transcriptions

Did anyone apply or get hired by Chase Transcriptions?  I am curious to know the pros and cons from current employees.  If I apply and am hired for part-time, do they allow you to choose your schedule or is it assigned? 


Thanks so much!!!! 


NEMT and Chase

Never worked for them. 


They have ads at mtjobs .com


They are backed by JP Morgan Chase. nm

Do you mean the one with the persistently happy employee who used to have to chase IC paychecks
from her previous company?  I am glad to find someone else who could appreciate that irony LOL!
Yes!! I have been having trouble with that
for some time now. I am just not happy with them because I am on two accounts; one I can get 300 lph on, but they give me the bad one, which I can only get about 120 lph on. I dunno why they do this. I am looking for work elsewhere. It stinks and it will not change obviously. I have been with them a year and am so sick of their games!!
I did not get in trouble...
and I did not get a reply, but I am complying with the email to restrict email at HIS to business only.

The MT who emailed me was just mad at what I had written and she expressed that she felt that what I said did not represent her feelings.
not a bad rap?? Huh - what about the trouble they
got in for not paying overtime? How is it that some people get to be on the same account all the time, while others had to jump from account to account throughout the day? Maybe you are on one of those hospital accounts that is paid through the hospital and not Diskriter - because that is the only way you would be happy and THAT IS THE ONLY WAY THAT DISKRITER will leave you alone to do your job. I can't tell you the number of phone meetings I had to take part in, away from my line count production to listen to garbage and stupid pep rally crap. I'm glad I left when I did, because others I know left as well.
well I have had no trouble with them.

I had the same trouble with them.
I've posted this before.  She had to put her dog out that kept barking in the background.  She wanted to know why I left my previous job on-site (duhhh).  It does not take rocket science to figure that I wanted to work from home.  I would be skeptical to give out office/physician names of your accounts if you have any.  It makes me wonder if they want some of this information so they can target the offices you work for and go in for the kill.  Is this just me being paranoid?  This can be a real cut-throat profession.     
D&L is in trouble, better get out
while you can.  I would call tech (if they still have a tech guy left) and then Donna... For your own sake, get out while you can... They have no intensions of paying the people they owe.  I would not let them get behind in your pay.. when the excuses start, stop typing.. I should have long before they owed me three paychecks.  Good luck.  Does not sound good though.  Are the phones still on? 
Of course they got in trouble (sm)
As you said, they were dictating ALL parameters .  Did you take a few minutes to read the article that I posted?  It clearly states what an IC contract should include, which in part is the definition of the project, the deadline for when the project should be completed, and the rate of pay for the project.  It also states that a company can refuse work from a contractor that is not to standard.  The article confirms everything that I said from the beginning of this conversation.
Trouble too, not just you! sm
I also have had trouble making my line count! I don't think it is just you. However, I have been with many, many companies in the past few years and I just keep running out of work at all of them, so I'm staying put for now because at least if I run out here, I get paid. I keep track of every minute I am out of work. I was just switched to a new account (quite difficult), but at least I always have work and I think I can get used to the difficulty. Oh, how I miss the days of doing 300 lph and actually having money, though!
Have you had any trouble getting -
I recall a couple of posts in the last month or so claiming DV doesn't pay. Have you run into this problem yet?
You trying to cause trouble sm
I am here working today. I have not received even a single email telling me to work, not a thing!

I didn't have work the first hour today, but I went and did something else for an hour, came back and I have had steady work since. I even have some of my favorite things, which is unusual in the morning.

If you could just hear yourself!
why go through so much trouble?
I don't understand why the company went through so much trouble, risking their name/reputation, and the chance of a law suit, knowing that it could be proven that you did not send the email yourself if you indeed didn't.  Why didn't they just let you go.  If any of what the previous poster stated is true, they had reason for dimissal, if you frauded your timecard, if you constantly complained to co-workers, etc.  If any of that was true, they could have fired you for those reasons.  Why would they go through such drastic measures to fire you, that's what I can't understand. I'm not saying I don't believe you, just seems hard to believe a company would go through all that.  What's your thoughts, why would they do this instead of just letting you go?
Not much, it seems, except cause trouble.

The trouble with VR
VR in and of itself is not a bad thing. It is the idea put forth by the slick salesmen that MTs can produce twice as much in an hour as they did by standard typing. But the going rate is 3 cpl which works out to 6 cpl if you were to extrapolate out the exchange rate for standard typing. Ya follow? So now we are at 6 cpl. That is way below what the going rate for straight typing is. But they deceive you by offering 8 cpl for standard typing and 3 cpl for VR. But there is very little standard typing so you end up making 3 cpl and in an hour you may make 6 cpl. So how did they arrive at that price? Because they push the envelope as far as they think it will go.  And as long as we let them, they will continue the abuse. 
sorry for your trouble. sm

I think I would just get the line counts figured and merely mail it in now, albeit late, you should get it eventually one would think. Just include - please notify me when the compensation can be expected, so you know what is going on, or not going on. 


 If not, and since they benefited from the lines, and can be verified you actually did indeed do the work, merely contact the labor department..


No trouble here...
... not at all. And I don't run close to the wire, either....
Having trouble understanding

your post, but if it was supposed to mean that we "could" have the option of transcribing and/or using VR, perhaps at this very minute in time you do, but that won't last much longer.


From the wording of your post, I'm having trouble believing you're a living, breathing human being.  Are you instead a VR program looking for a home?  If so, maybe you'd better fine-tune your voice-recognition ability to correct that "good" versus "could" voice conflict you've got going on.  If you are a human being attempting to convey a thought about "bad" MTs, take a good, long look at your own post and tell me where they should begin the "weeding-out" process. 


I personally think they should start with MTs who type sentences such as, "I was under the impression that we good straight type, do VR or both!"


FLO'S QA DEPT STILL IN TROUBLE
So many QA people are getting fired, and she is still hiring replacements for them long before they have a clue that they are about to get the ax. She is not keeping anyone who knows more than she does.

Speaking of which, did you see the email about the account manager position? Only 2 years experience as an MT is required. Two years experience. Unbelievable! Cheap-cheap-cheap.

That is what is wrong with OSi. Nobody is qualified to do their uppity jobs, including the QA Director, except the MTs, who continue to lose work to India via outsourcing!!!!
Anybody having trouble making
Amphion?  I have been with them 3 months and still have not hit my 1200 line goal. Would like to know if anyone else has had this experience.
I had trouble keeping up with my
The QA department wants to proof everything before you get paid, therefore what you typed may not be what you get paid for.  I couldn't ever figure out how much I was going to receive.  People were real nice, accounts good, but there was room for dishonesty in line counting in my mind.
trouble with software

I am still having trouble with the ExText software.  I know TT is doing their best to get everything smoothed out...but I am concerned because it really slows me down and is very frustrating...I just get all geared up and ready to have at it...but the software gives me nothing but problems.  It cuts me off after I complete a report and then I have to sign back on to get dictation.  Sometimes the system does not recognize my foot pedal, and I have to crawl under my desk undo the USB connection and reconnect, then it will work.  All in all this is very frustrating.  Also I find some of the doctors are difficult to understand...I think they are speaking too close or too far away from their microphone, etc.  I know my line counts thus far are not good at all.  I like the company...they are all very, very nice to work with, especially QA.  I have been on the account about 3 weeks now...I sure hope it improves soon.


Thanks for your input.


I only have trouble on Sundays - sm
But, I've never gotten yelled at for not making my quota. Did you explain that there is no work?

You got in trouble for that email? sm
Puhleeze. It was what Paulik and everybody needed to hear. They were just mad because the truth hurts. I was waiting to see if he had the guts to reply.

You haven't offended me at ALL. You've spoken for so many of us! Are you part of the email group of ex-HISers?
causin' trouble is more like it! nm

TROUBLE GETTING PAID...
FOCUS HAS TROUBLE WITH EVERYTHING !! RUN AWAY FROM THEM AS FAST AS YOU CAN : )
Oh man, sorry you're having so much trouble.

The dictaphone we use at the hospital occasionally does that but not very often.  I have had no problems whatsoever (knock on wood) with Merit running in my 384 RAM machine. 


If I were in your shoes, I would take a shot at the Merit side before I jumped ship.  I think the reason why I don't like Merit as well is because i have not had as much experience with it.


I had a little trouble in the very beginning

getting my direct deposit going, but on time every time since.  I started 6 months ago.  I checked BBB and found them to have a BB rating, which is a good rating according to the BBB themselves. 


 


I hate being paid late myself, it is really frustratign and has happened to me far times than I can remember, but I am sure they will work things out with you.
