    I just completed an interview process with JLG. The owner presents herself as an MT who understands our situations. But they are very dishonest. Do not trust them. They are liars. I just wish I could find some honesty in this business. I have been in it for 20 years. It used to be a professional career with integrity, but not anymore. The disadvantage of working over the internet is that companies do not see you as a person, but as a computer, or a typist. They don't have to look into our eyes when they lie. They just really don't care. Thanks for listening.


    hmmm, not seeing a post (?) No message inside

    NM means No Message inside post

    Inside is the quote; not the red. The red in my post is my own personal opinion.

    *** We started using the Enterprise Express Speech System in late October of 2007 and have already seen a 500 percent increase in speech-recognized drafted
    reports. While just 20 members of our team of 300 transcriptionists
    are using the system now, we plan to expand its use significantly. In
    only 60 days we've seen dramatic productivity climbs and our team
    loves the system. ****


    I can't tell you exactly for single, but I was quoted
    a range from $134 pp to $245 depending on which plan you choose for E+child. I would think it would likely be about half that for Employee alone. But that is just a guess. HTH some.
    I got paid less than what I was quoted
    I already did not like the direction my -previously wonderful- company was going in and had another part time job lined up, however when I saw on my pay stub 1/2 cent per line less than what I had been promised I walked out and did not look back. Took a full time job with my new company. No love lost here.
    I was quoted a 65-ch line using Chartscript. nm
    xx
    Holy Smokes! That is high. That is what I was quoted for private ins.
    a
    OSi pays on time every time exactly what was quoted on job offer.
    Someone is getting really confused here. OSi does pay on time. Pay has always been in accordance to my time sheet that I fill out. If OSi pays only if their accounts pay them, then I must be on one good account that always pays. This is not in any fine print of any papers I have received.
    No direct knowledge but
    There's a message on the Career Step board by someone who says pay is late and by Paypal. Don't know about the rest but the Paypal payroll would be enough to turn me off.
    I have direct deposit.
    I love the platform. It is proprietary software but very VERY user friendly. The staff is great and I really do enjoy it here. And I am serious -- make your own opinion. One or 2 bad apples don't outweigh a couple of hundred happy campers. Our insurance is great -- there is sick leave, holiday, PTO .. it's pretty dang good.
    Direct deposit. SM
    I just filled out a form for my bank on Monday to have another type of payment set up for direct deposit. So, there's obviously something very, very wrong here.

    Good luck.
    yep - late direct dep is a BIG no-go for me
    Yep, I would go bonkers with late pay esp if it is direct deposit. Definitely a sign of internal problems and TOTALLY unacceptable to me. Mailed checks have an excuse, but direct deposit never has one. I have very limited free time and need to schedule when I will do things and if my pay is late it screws up my entire week.

    Another reason I am glad I did not get hired there.
    They pay be direct deposit
    Good luck with getting the phone answered.  Does their manager not have a number to call?
    Yes, they do have direct deposit. nm

    You are so right about going to the doctor direct!

    You can do that and make great money, the only problem is, what to do when you need time off.  I've actually been the one to cover all these years (17 years experience) than be the one to ask for coverage.  Also, you must make yourself, I think, a little more available for phone calls, STAT requests, doctor getting a bug in his you know what!  Sometimes, it is easier to let a company do that for you.  No contact, means less headaches!  Like I said, I have done all of it, and I'm still providing for my children.  I would at home full-time now with a nice mix as an IC.  My husband is full-time, and the kids think it is great to have Mom at home.  Pros and cons with everything I guess.  It may be the region you live in as well.  There is a posting regarding gas prices, which is varying in all of the states, it seems.  Have a great day!


    Direct deposit
    She has direct deposit now. I even got paid a few days early last week.
    No direct deposit
    Today is payday and direct deposit not there, still waiting for reason. Apparently ADP problem, not TTS, but still!
    DIRECT DEPOSIT`

    I DID sign up for direct deposit.  However, they lost all of my paperwork and paid me as a vendor!!  NOT good!!! 


    Direct deposit

    I live 20 miles from them, and it took 4 to 5 days to get my check.  The postmark was a timely manner.  A lot just depends on the volume of mail going from whereever they mail the checks from.


    They just did start direct deposit for IC's about a month or 2 ago.  I LOVE IT!!!!


    I have direct deposit
    My pay is in my account every other Saturday bright and early. They have never been late and never messed up my pay. I think if you don't have DD it arrives the middle of the week.
    Direct Deposit?
    Can you get your money direct deposited? That's what I do, works great.
    Do they do direct deposit? nm

    Direct Deposit
    I don't know what's going on either. Mine is ALWAYS in the bank on Friday morning, however, when I banked at another bank before this one it was always in there on Saturday morning. This has got me confused. Seems like they would at least have let us know. Hope I don't have some stuff bouncing. I live from payday to payday with as many kids as I have.
    I got my direct deposit sm
    It was there when I just checked it this morning. Just thought I would give you guys the heads up.
    JLG Direct Deposit
    Has anyone gotten a straight answer about direct deposit, if/when it will be started again? 
    Don't they have direct deposit?
    .
    direct deposit
    Like someone stated, it does take a cycle or two for the DD to happen. You probably will get a paper check in the mail. With any job that I have had, it takes 2 weeks or more to get the first check. Sometimes the company will hold the first pay check and then you will get paid during the next pay cycle for the first 2 weeks that you worked. Just call before making any hasty judgments. Put on the board the company name and ask other MTs, that work at the same company, if they have had problems with getting paid. You are not putting your name on the board, just asking a general question-- this way, you can see if the company has problems with paying on time. Many MTs put info like this on this board and it is very helpful in determining what is a good company to work for.
    Direct Deposit and IC

    The company I work for just announced that it is unethical business practice to direct deposit paychecks for independent contractors, so they will start mailing us our paychecks which will take a minimum of 2 weeks to get.  Where has anyone heard of such a thing???  


     


     


    Yes They have direct deposit. nm

    Thanks for the information.
    direct deposit
    If you are talking about the Superior Global out of Plano, Texas, then the answer is no, they do not have direct desposit.  The last I heard, they were working on it, so you might check just to make sure, but I am working for them now and my paycheck is mailed out twice a month, usually gets here a day or two early.
    direct deposit
    Yes, Superior Global does direct deposit. I have been an IC with them for about 6 months and recently became an employee and I have had direct deposit the entire time.
    ...better yet - direct to the patient.

    Direct deposit
    ...because they could not keep the reserves in the bank. Huh? I don't understand. They still have to pay out the same amount of money each pay day whether it is by check or by direct deposit. I would love to know the real reason why they stopped doing direct deposit. Waiting for a paper check sucks. Then you have to travel to cash or deposit it.


    Direct deposit
    I have had a couple of MT companies that did not charge me for direct deposit. When my current company told me there was a $5 every 2 weeks for direct deposit, but that it was deductible on my taxes as an expense for a self-employed person, I told them NO THANKS. I hate going to the bank, but will not spend $10 a month to get the money that I have already earned at a pay that is lower that it should be. Give me the check. I will go to the bank when I run other errands to use my time wisely.

    Who offers direct deposit for IC?

    I have had only one delayed direct deposit and sm
    we knew about it in advance. It was an outright error and they admitted it and did not try to tell us some runaround BS. The payroll person put the wrong posting date, one day late, and did not find out until it was after the cut-off time.

    Go with direct deposit right away. Snail mail is too unpredictable.

    I have a friend who has been IC with them for almost three years (I am newer than her). She told me that she had some problems in the past but not since direct deposit and they always fix them right away.

    Make sure you have the dates right though. They threw me at first. If it is a Sat or Sun, they post on Monday not Friday. Once I knew that, I was fine and planned accordingly.

    One word of advice is if you have any questions or problems, call Becky as she is the most helpful person I have ever come across working for nationals. She can find an answer or solve anything. I had a problem with a headset a few weeks ago and she had one to me the next day even though it was my fault. I thanked her and told her I hope she never leaves, and she told me she is there forever :)
    and almost two years ago. Direct deposit since 9/04. This is why
    so many people do not know what is true and what is not.

    Direct deposit failure? sm
    I had hoped DD would allow me to avoid the pitfall of late payment, nonpayment, and short checks, etc.

    Those of you utilizing direct deposit through your company, how many of you are paid late at times with the service? Is this common?

    Yes, they pay on time, direct deposit. sm
    Minimum lines of 11,000 a pay period for benefits. 

    They are a great bunch of caring people -- best move I have in a long time.

    Good luck!


    Allstate DOES do direct deposit...
    Paypay is merely an OPTION if you choose to be paid that way, just as having your check mailed is...and sent via either snail mail or Priority Mail. Allstate has had direct deposit for quite a while now, but did not have it in 2006 when the original post was made.
