Mine has ALWAYS been in my bank on Friday, if not before, from Transtech, so absolutely different

Posted By: TT pay not here in bank or pending deposit on 2008-03-28
In Reply to: My check from TransTech has never been on SATURDAY ! - Transtech paychecks

This pay period is different.  My bank is such a good bank, so it is NOT the bank.  I called my bank and a DD is not even pending from Transtech.  New payroll person inhouse may want to save TT $$$  by holding off on our pay.  Things are changing at TT every day now.  It has been SO GOOD for over a year.   Sigh . . . .

Mine has been in the bank midnight Friday and
I have promised to pay some bills Saturday morning! I sure hope that I don't get into trouble over this. I know they say we don't get paid til Monday, but if the money has always been there before, why should we assume different! I will be in some real trouble if the money is not in the bank midnight tonight. The bills don't wait til the weekend is over the money is due now. Why would they not communicate a problem with us? Before I have a fit, I am going to assume it will be there. Why assume the worst if they did not say anything right? (she asks nervously).
I guess my bank is different. If they release the funds on Friday, they are sm

in my account on Monday morning, usually by 4 a.m. when I check my balance.  I appreciate you understanding.  I too live paycheck to paycheck, unfortunately, and some times a day or two make a HUGE difference.  I guess I was spoiled because they used to pay a couple of days after the end of the pay period, then they went to this manual line counting stuff, and you never know when it will be done. 


Fortunately, I did get my line count last night, so I'm crossing my fingers for Monday, but probably not Tuesday ... sigh.  I will get a paycheck from my new job soon, which has set pay days where it is promised to be IN my account, so that will help a lot. 


As I said before, it was not an attack on the company.  Mostly I was venting because as much as I have enjoyed the work, when I have it, I hate living in limbo.


I got mine on Friday before I started on (sm)
Monday. Had plenty of time to get it set up and get a KMV switch.
They were pretty fast with my DD. Mine comes in on friday w/ DD
:)
Mine is always there on Friday, but Monday is payday.

Mine was deposited on Friday b/c of the holiday..

Mine was there Friday too. Direct Deposit (nm)?

Mine is in my bank. I just checked! nm

Wow, where do you bank? Mine is not there yet .. getting a bit nervous. :( nm

Whatever that company is, they absolutely do not have access to our resume bank.

Mine also can't seem to get the amount right and it is always the bank's fault. sm
right!
Paid every other Monday. Mine is usually in the bank on Saturday. nm

Mine does not post until 11pm the night of payroll. It is the bank. sm
I have talked to others and some post the night before, some by morning, some by noon. Mine is the worst I have heard of, but it is the way everything posts with my bank. It is one of the largest banks in the world too!
It depends on your bank not Keystrokes when they post it. When your bank opens it will be there, ar
Hope this helps. Their payroll department is very efficient. In fact, I feel dumb beside them. Very professional (not that they make me feel dumb).
Before you JUMP ON ME, yes, I have done VR with Transtech and absolutely hated it because
I cannot make the same money I can with traditional transcribing and I like to see a good report when I am finished.  I am a sole provide for myself and MUST MAKE GOOD MONEY to survive in this world!  I am not working for the fun of it.  Again, YES, I have given VR a chance with Transtech already -- unable to use expanders/briefs/etc.  NOT ENOUGH money to be made with VR -- 1/3 of my line rate, not hardly.
You can believe those on this board saying NO WORK at Transtech ! Absolutely true !!

Getting worse and worse every day.  They are going to VR at a VERY FAST PACE, which pays so little you cannot survive on the money UNLESS you work 60 hours a week OR are one of the supe's fav's that get the better dictators.


There is always an excuse by TT as to the low work, but remember that doesn't pay our creditors.  Work disappears in large chunks when were at getting almost out of TAT (if ever) so it is going somewhere.


TT is turning out to be like every other MT company out there - more and more executives/supervisors to pay and not a single penny raise for the MT -- much less provide work for the MT's on a consistent basis -- not near consistent basis.


TransTech provides absolutely benefits for their senior MT's, but your protected ! ! !

Strange you didn't know you were pregnant; hate people who use the system for having fun and getting pregnated.  Just what this world needs is more kids!!!! 


Lots of benefits for the pregnant, as the mgmt-type people at TT want those types of benefits for themselves !   They choose benefits desired by themselves, such as the hybrid vehicle -- who cares about???


IMHO you should lose your job, just as we mature MT's would lose our job at TT if we were to miss months of work !!!!!


I sure hope I can get mine today from TransTech.
Boy, that would be a God-send right now.
Got mine from Transtech this morning. Amex gift cheque. LOVE THEM!

Ohhhhh, sooooooo true -- Transtech tech people absolutely stink anymore since ____ left. He was the

greatest!  Hated to hear that he had left.  We got some real doozies for tech help now.  The MT ends up training them.  They are clueless as to what to do when we need help.  TRUTH!


They ALWAYS have a BAD attitude in their voice, too -- like we MT's are a bother to them -- thought that is what they get paid for.


I bet you 1 million $$ you won't find one on mine. Mine is
2 years old and it does not have a 9-pin serial port, nor does it have a game port.   I have used both ports on other computers so I know what both ports look like.  I also have a company provided computer and it does have the ports on it. 
Pay due Friday, still ???
I do not want to post the name of this particular company but has been on this board several times. You do your days and times and then nothing. I have bills to pay and wish the companies could get our money to us just like we are there to type their reports.
every other Friday
s
Every other Friday
I've been with Focus almost 2 years and the pay periods have always ended every other Friday during these 2 years.
They pay every other Friday. How hard is that
duh!
They finally did pay me Friday
Well I finally did get all my pay, minus the western union fees. But what it took me to get it was almost not worth it.
it's friday free-for-all! Hoo-ha! nm

I sent my resume on a Friday, sm
took the test over the weekend and was hired on Monday.
Monday-Friday
I wish that people who get into this profession would understand that hospitals operate 24/7/365. My daughter is a registered nurse and does not demand a m-F schedule and YES she does have children. You got into this profession because of having kids at home and wanting to be a stay at home mommy. Well, 30 years of experience under my belt and most of the companies that I have spoken with allow me to work the hours that I want to work because of the fact that in general, I put in 12 hour days and even work weekends and dont take a day off unless I need to, due to illness or whatever and also, due to the fact that if I do have an emergency, I let someone know in advance and just not refuse to work
My Goodness! You'd think it was Friday--sm
today what with every body biting each other's heads off and getting all *snarky* over things that don't really matter. Get a grip you all, have a cold one, and mellow out! geez. some of Y'all are just LOOKIN' for an argument and if you can't get one going, you'll start one! sick *o this stuff. I think most of the people in this thread need a good long ol* fashioned *time out* in the corner!
Be nice, people - it's Friday

Same here..I've been trying since early Friday..(sm)
I'll call Monday if I can't get in by then. It's never been down this long before.
I had Vonage Friday of last week and
I work for MDI and use Charter. I don't know if my problem was with the cable or with Vonage, but I would be at the end of a job and the Vonage phone would just cut out...sometimes staying connected, just not operational for a little bit (30-60 seconds), or worse, it would just cut off and I lost the job. The job got stuck in never-never land and I could not get it back to finish transcribing it. One job cost me almost 100 lines. So, on Tuesday I got Charter's ULD...the independent sales rep gave it to me for $15/month.
Thanks - I sent my test back Friday
so hopefully I'll hear back by the end of next week. I'm really interested in doing clinic notes so I hoping I did well enough.
P.S. He briefly told me on Friday

He specializes in this field and knows the laws of companies versus IC status.  He is a long time friend of the family so it won't cost me much and well worth every penny of whatever I do have to pay. 


Monday-Friday, First Shift?
Does anyone know of companies that have accounts with Monday to Friday, first shift positions? Personal obligations do not allow me to work weekends or evenings and so many companies want this. If I could do it I would, but it is not possible, and they all seem to want weekends and second or third shifts. I really need to find something. Any help greatly appreciated.
I am hoping for Friday but it could be Monday. sm
The pay period just ended yesterday. With over 400 employees it might be difficult to get it all done by Friday but I sure am crossing my fingers!
Made decision; Friday last day
Whew! Glad that's over! :)

Thanks folks.
Out of work 15 times Friday
Has happened all week long.  Think I got a total of 4 hours yesterday.  My STM said we were down 750 dictation minutes for some reason this week.  She had no idea why.  I have 8 different accounts I pull from. 
direct deposit every 2 weeks, on Friday,

my check was there on Friday, it usually is on Thursday which is early

Do you mean in addition to your reg Friday work? When do they give it to you?
nm
Pay due Monday, I get by direct deposit on Friday. sm
Partly company, where most get on Saturday via direct deposit.  I just happen to have a very friendly bank who posts the minute the get it and 1 a.m. on Friday.  So sorry.  We all need to get our pay on time. 
Umm, I am paid every other Friday, on time. Work

Agree with you. Payday is Monday, this is the Friday..

before payday. Some people will whine about anything. As I said before, plan your finances better and you won't be relying on DD. Why don't you call payroll and whine to them, see what they tell you?


I applied on Friday and received an email
on Sunday asking about my availability for an interview. I responded on Sunday with totally open availability and I have not heard anything back. What should I make of this?
The rep I spoke with on Friday mentioned 60 positions... nm

Getting afraid of waking up on Friday/Saturday
Every weekend now, a flurry of e mails how we better work the weekend or find something else. I am downright weary. What about all those times we did not have any work, or when there is no work when we are scheduled. Double standard here but not for the MT. When you say jump I need to ask how high. Sorry about this, but I am wanting to avoid my e mail come the weekend. The threats are just too much for my stomach.
No email of any kind here. Was off Friday and Saturday
not sure if I should stay up all night waiting for something or get some extra sleep!!
Looking for a company who hires Monday-Friday days
Does anyone know of a company who hires full time transcriptionists for Monday-Friday?  I have years and years experience and am tired of working the weekends!  Your help will be greatly appreciated!
Happy Friday email LOL No $$$$$ made all week !! !!

How in the world could mgmt put out an email titled Happy Friday when we have had NO WORK for weeks and weeks now.  We can always look forward to such emails on Friday.


Same ole stuff about new accounts coming onboard between now and December, but what about PAYING OUR BILLS IN THE MEANTIME.  We have been LOW to NOW WORK for a VERY LONG time now.  Going deeper and deeper in a hole financially.  How is your paycheck, mgmt????
