I get mine check by mail with no problems

Posted By: Just my experience on 2008-08-31
In Reply to: Exactly..who mails checks anymore. Even back in the day at work, every other Friday - WorkaholicMT

I work for the Q and my checks are mailed to me. They come on time every time. I have never had a late paycheck with them. I have worked for companies who consistently pay late and left because of that, a definite deal breaker for me no matter how good everything else is with the company. One day late and I quit working until check arrives, this from experience with not getting paid at all for two weeks of work at one place. My bills have to be paid on time so payday has to be dependable. I have been messed up by a bank computer glitch with direct deposit twice in the past and that is why I have gone back to having my checks mailed.

Mine came regular mail
But was included with my new-hire paperwork. Give it time, mail is really slow this week (at least in Central New York!)
I do not have your e-mail addy, but I left mine. sm

Please e-mail me so we can talk.


better check, got mine 2 wk ago.

They can check mine if I can check theirs...nm

Check your E-mail.

I sent you an E-mail from my other E-mail address.  You can reply to that one or to my Yahoo address.


IS THE CHECK REALLY IN THE MAIL?

I worked for a company for about a month. Upon our initial discussions it was mentioned they paid once a month. I said I could not do that because of getting burned in the past.  They said they could do twice a month so I accepted the position.  First check for the 15th was not received until I believe the 27th as they had surgery and could not tell me when their husband mailed it. Hmmmm.  The second check should have been mailed on the 1st. I was told on the 5th that it went through online banking on the 4th.  Now I'm being told that it takes 7-10 days for online banking.  I never signed any type of contract and mentioned that I would call the doctor myself and ask if he paid them for the services performed.  Now I'm getting, I'll press charges if you do that.  I'll check with my bank tomorrow and if you don't receive it by the end of the week, I'll pay you through Paypal.  The only thing with that is, you lose money.   Can you believe that!! I'm sorry, I just had to vent.  Oh yeah, I took Friday off and I was away.  I wasn't ignoring you. 


IS THE CHECK IN THE MAIL?

I am happy to say that I was paid today after mentioning I may have my fiance's law firm contact the physician and being told online banking would take 7-10 days.  I was paid immediately via Paypal and although I lost a few dollars with their fees, it's better than waiting 17+ days for a check.  My final check..I'm done.  Gant Transcriptions in Texas is the name and excuses is the game!  One for every occasion.  I just hope she pays anyone else she may owe.  It's awful what we have to go through to get a paycheck, and then made to feel like we're wrong for asking.  I guess I'm the only one who works for the money.  Sorry, but the thrill of it went out the window with the paycheck that's in the mail..lol..


if they mail you your check sm
contact US Post Office at 1-800-275-8777 and go through the prompts - Delivery Services, Delivery Assistance, Delayed Mail, Customer Service, Document lateness. They will take down all the info (where it is being mailed from, where it is being mailed to, type of service (first class etc), and estimated value) then get back to you with what they find out within 24 business hours. I just called them about Lee Perfect being late (again) on my invoice - have been told one too many time it is because of the Chicago post office! Good luck!
Lea, check your e-mail

Check your Bulk Mail
I was wondering why I didn't receive a reply and decided to check my bulk mail/spam - there it was.
sm - I sent you a message - please check your e-mail...
I have a couple more questions - if you wouldn't mind taking a minute to answer them I'd appreciate it!

Check lost in mail :(
Hi. Just wondering if anyone has ever experienced this problem... I'm afraid my check that was mailed on June 4 has been lost in the mail :( I have a new mail carrier, and lately we have been getting a lot of mixups with our mail. I am going to go to direct deposit when I get this check. I am so worried as I am the only one working right now, and we have a family of 5 with 3 little ones and desperately need my check. This happened once before when I moved out of state and worked at MedQuist, and it was a horrible experience. They needed to wait a few weeks before issuing a new check after stopping payment on the one lost in the mail, so my check was about a month late. I am already behind on rent, so I am worried. So far I love my job, and I'm hoping the process will be a little easier with SoftScript...Has anyone ever had this happen to them?
Check your bulk mail or spam
directory.  I thought I had been overlooked too, but the response was in my junk mail.
Go ahead and think that until check is not in mail Monday . . . nm

I work IC for a company who pays by check in mail
Never had a bounced check either.  I can see why you would worry though.  Maybe they will do the switch eventually. 
I get my check on Monday or Tuesday by snail mail . sm
After bring home peanuts from MQ, it is worth the wait!
Check is direct deposit and we get the stub through e-mail....

Speaking of Spheris - How long does it take to get check in mail?

I am changing banks and so they are going to mail me this paycheck - I am in California so I was curious if anyone could give me an idea of how many days it would take roughly for the check to arrive.


Mucho gracias!


How do I access MQ Internet mail? I'm registered on Q-Net but don't see any e-mail thingie the
nm
I didn't get the e-mail but I just sent you one and gave you my e-mail addy so (sm)

you could manually type it in and resend me the info.  Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks.


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. 
Yes - regular mail and my reg mail stinks, so let them know.

Does background check include credit check?

"You can check my credit if I can check yours"

Credit check, FBI check was not for
me. The notion that if you don't pay your bills means your not a responsible person really kills me!!! Lots of people have $$ problems, especially if you are an MT, LOL!!! They are the only company I know that does these checks. Seems a little anal to me!!!
Got mine the very next day Fed-Ex.

Same with mine.
I started working at 6:30 a.m. and we were still working on the day before! By 8:00, it was gone! That never used to happen!
Because they are getting rid of mine
a huge producer of tons of work by December if they don't sign on DQS and so far they want no part of it. That is why I am on a new account on DEP, mine is going bye bye.
On mine, many MTs with 10+ yrs exp. SHOULD be on 100% QA!

Hey. that is all mine will eat too--sm
Fancy Feast, and only the pate kind, with an occasional fliet thrown in for differentiation.

shhh- about the wrong board, or everything will be deleted in the transfer. lol.
Mine too. sm
Seems to be okay, only takes about 30 seconds to download.
Mine low too
can you work 2 accounts if you ask for one?
I got mine on E-Bay for $500
One thing you have to realize is Dragon doesn't work efficiently on most platforms. It is great in MSWord, but when you have to type in most if not all these different platforms that are Word-like programs,(these platforms actually pull from your personal Word program) it prints a character at a time, not good! (most of these platforms have all kinds of security and nonmicrosoft programs will not work inside the platform) I can still use mine but I have to open WordPad and speak to that and then copy and paste into the platform program.

There are some who will say you have to tweak it a bit to work in some of these platforms, but you still loose a lot of functionality.

I love this program as it has helped with my carpal tunnel immensely, but don't think for a moment that with this program, once you have it trained you are going to be making big bucks. Yes, you line count will go up a bit and I mean a bit. You are not going to get rich. People need to understand this is not a program where you have very little typing and the money will just roll in. You have to be realistic.
Yes, that is sad and mine
worked the first time
they pay mine
I've been working there a year. Paid internet was part of my job offer. Maybe this is a new policy or you have to ask for it?
They pay mine too.
Also, been there a little over a year.  Love my job!
I got mine
It is refundable after 3 years of employment. If you leave before 3 years you get it back when they receive the equipment back. I received my deposit upon 3 years of employment without having to ask for it. I was pleasantly surprised, figured it would take awhile and need a few emails!
Mine too BUT..
The CEO called me personally and fixed mine as soon as I notified them that this happened. The company had no idea wbout this. They were great! I even sent them proof of fees that I incurred and they reimbursed those too..I am very happy with the fix
Mine's not there either yet!
This is the first time it hasn't been there on pay day in the AM! I'm freaking out! I left a message with the office to find out why.
Got mine the first day
They never limit the number of reports you can type even while you are on full QA. I have never seen another company do that, I was always limited to 10 max in the past. I made my line count from day 1, felt sorry for the poor QA dept.
Mine does exactly that!
Sent you an email...
Not on mine
I got a new computer less than a year ago, and mine does not have it either.
here's mine
YOG-- Loved it! Not in business anymore- sold to MQ.

MQ- Good about 8 yrs ago, went downhill after that.

DISKRITER-- Hated it-- Not enough work. Demographics took longer than typing the reports.

JLG- Love it, just hate the fact that we do not have DD right now, but love the work and the people!
mine went in too

old job of mine still uses WP5.1-- sm

Mine is low as well...
I actually am going back to school starting in January. Just signed up for classes yesterday. I love being an MT, but the lack of work is happening more and more.
MINE TOO
The company I work for is also in financial trouble.  Got a huge email last fall.  Now wondering if I should start looking for a different job.   Which company do you work for?  Mine starts with a S.
