I don't want an exchange, I want a refund.

I'm not stupid and know how to configure the foot pedal.  Even though I had done everything to get it to work, I still followed the directions of your company and it still would not work.   I find it funny that one pedal doesn't work and one does, at least temporarily,  and yet it is "my issue" and not yours.  I have every e-mail and not once was it mentioned it was a software or computer issue.  I've even had my IT guy work with it and he said it just isn't compatible, that there is a switch issue in the pedal most likely. 


I'm through with this.  I'll file my complaints as stated above, but I have better things to do with my time than to continue this.   I stand by everything I have said.


 


Would like to exchange notes..sm
I'm thinking along these same lines..email me. I have some questions.
Exchange rate is 1.14 for 1.00 USD.

Hello Michael and Welcome. Did you see this exchange about Franky Boy

See Below.  I copied these.  Please see the whole string.  I think it's on page three now, maybe two.  I split my side on this one.


 


Well, good morning "Frank" are you counting your piles of money?

penned in at the moment because of unethical practices of MQ,




but in essence you have "given" us to your competition. Your competition may have




been weakened by your siphoning off of MTs to work for MQ for a while




mostly because you became a monopoly, but with all the manpower




going to your broken competition and hospitals who are tired of being




manipulated with smoke and mirror business, see how good your name smells in




the medical field in about a year.




The resumes are flying like kites out there right now, can you see them?




Those are not clouds in your coffee those are your livelihood in the medical




field going up up up and away.




Enjoy your card game now. I think the slight of hand way of doing business




has just about seen its day.




Any company that cannot ever give how a line is counted and show




the method an MT is paid - so that the MT can double check her "billing" is




not an ethical institution. We don't work for the suprise we get in the bank at the end of 2 weeks of chasing work around your company, we work for the




money. We are business people just like you. You, MQ, would not do business without a clear contract and yet you have expected MTs to




work on a line count that is by YOUR FORMULA which you can't share! How insane is that?

Why, yes, yes I am! If you don't like my company, please move on! This company has been in business for many, many years and I intend to keep it that way. None of you little peon transcriptionists can do anything to change that. I want only positive and productive transcriptionists working for me, and sorry honey, but you do not fall into that category. If I am such a bad, bad man, then why I ask, do you take my money every 2 weeks in your paycheck? Good golly ladies, get a life and leave my company alone. I do have lots and lots of competitors out there so go see how happy you are with them, but I will tell you right now this door only swings one way so don't come crawling back a cryin' saying you had it too good here - as the saying goes, "you don't know what you got til it's gone." For some, I understand that it will take you leaving to find that out and to that end, I say good riddens, adios amiogos, farewell, and goodbye.

No need to fix your makeup - you look good either way, although I love it most when you wear your red lipstick - YUMMY. By the way, did you get your bonus I put in your check? You have been such an outstanding and dedicated employee and one that I truly respect. Keep up the good work. I have been doing my best to keep your work pool busy by taking the other fat and ugly people's work from them.

are Frank?


yep, c'est moi... pic was from when I was an exchange student

in Cairo through the University of California.  Long time ago.  I was with YOG, then stayed on after Medquist bought us out. 


find out if it is USD or CND and if CND get exchange rate - nm

I looked at the stock exchange info, nothing there to note.

the "free" part is the constant exchange of dictation via internet...sm

I was just wondering what part of docshuttle is free?  I went to their web site and their fee is .20/minute (under 1,000 minutes of dictation) for the use of a 1-800 number for dictating, and then there are also start-up costs for each dictator, transcriptionist, and transcription administrator.  Isn't this the same as a TASP?"



what I was referring to was not DocShuttle Digital but  DocShuttle Administrator, Dictator and Client, whereas you set up your own FTP site and then use the combined software to have the doc upload dictation to the site, then you/your MT's download it, complete it, post it back to the ftp site, wherein your doc downloads the completed copy. You need to buy the software and Olympus recorders and perhaps a .wavplayer if you don't have anything yet, then you rent an ftp site for $45-$75 per year. You don't pay for phone lines because everything is transferred via internet.



 "Even with all the start-up fees and per minute charge, is this a better option than owning your own digital dictation system where you pay for the equipment and phone lines?"  Opinions vary on this but I feel it a pretty flexible system that will allow you to grow as big as you want. Downside is if doc wants to use phone for dictation instead of handheld recorder. Depending on the account, that might be when you want to use a TASP. 



You may email me if you wish. I will be happy to share my experience.



 


Return receipt sm

Years ago (many) I would have put the address, either block form to the left or tab to the middle for semi-block form and under the SUBJECT: or RE: line, I would have put Certified Mail No. 112233 or Registered mail # 112233 and then "return receipt requested" on that same line or underneath. If there is no subject, put it before the salutation. Today, I probably would put it under the initials at the bottom of the letter, in block form, just because I would like the appearance of it better, i.e.,


Sincerely yours,


(4 spaces)


Melissa M. Anonymous


MAM (or the dictator's initials and then yours)


Sent via certified mail #112233 - 3/9/06, return receipt requested.


 


I don't think it really matters. If you don't have a # yet, just put "Sent via certfied mail 3/9/06, return receipt requested." Don't take my word for it though, unless you don't find any samples, this is just my 2 cents.

RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED

Dear so and so

body of letter
-
Why not use the receipt function in OE?
She would have to acknowledge the receipt of your emails (which I hope are encrypted for HIPAA compliance) and that would send a clear message that she is responsible for keeping the file on her end. I also would state that once I receive payment for work submitted to her, you delete those file (whether or not you actually do), but it will help her see she has to accept responsibility for running her business like a business.

This used to happen to me all the time and that was how I handled it. After the office caught on, I only had to resend files perhaps once every 3-4 months.
I don't like those return receipt reqsts

I don't like those return receipt requests, unless business related, (I have 2 friends who did this a lot in outlook express but one has stopped requesting them per my spewing off about it and the other has not), as when I respond to their email, THAT's the confirmation that I received their email.  If I didn't receive their email or vice versa, usually the system's "mailer daemon" will notify you in any email (keyword is usually). 


Though I will say, my daughter sent me an email to yahoo that I NEVER got just a week ago.  Guess that one got lost in cyberspace.  *L*


Get one, save receipt, and if not happy with it,

In addition to your credit card receipt you should

get a printout of your payment and if they don't offer it, ask for it.   Be sure to check right away that they are showing you paid and if you have a receipt your payment was put in the system, which should eliminate this issue in the future. 


Billing an insurance company will give the insurance company a good laugh and will probably create further problems. 


MANY reasons to request a read receipt -
One of them is that someone claims to not receive your e-mail when everyone else in the world does. I finally figured out the person I was e-mailing was playing games. SO, not everything has to do with being a control freak.
Is there a way to get a read receipt back from someone who has web mail?
I seem to only be able to see if someone has actually opened up a mail I have sent with a read receipt attached if they have certain types of e-mail accounts.  Is there a universal way I can do this from my Outlook Express?  Thank you for any input here! 
the receipt function is only as good as the person --sm
receiving it. She is not *obligated* to send a receipt back. most people choose not to. they do not HAVE to. and I doubt her email is encrypted for HIPAA compliance.
Me, too. Only if I send receipt do they know it was read. False information.
x
Requesting a read receipt when sending an email is in no way considered being a

"control freak."  Do you also label people who send mail via the U.S. Postal Service as either Certified or Registered "control freaks?"


 


If the recipient does not acknowledge mail receipt, Outlook will not notify you.

If the receipient declines to acknowledge receipt but reads the email,
saying that is what happened, so either way, you know the person got and read it.
Some emails that are sent do not warrant a written reply, so receiving a read receipt would
ensure that the information sent has been read/received.
you can use incredimail to get the receipt function, works with most normal emails by popping or how
to send the work to her, that way you have a receipt basically that it is sent and when she picked it up. it is crypted and doesn't take long to send and/or use. it is free download at hypersend.com. the free part does have a limit to how much can be sent a month, but i use several accts and swap when i run out of room. i had a company that didn't go through the MTSO to request resends, they went through me. i finally had to start billing. i billed 0.25 for every resend and it took my time to locate the file they wanted, attach, and resend for free. i didn't mind when it was occasionally, but to us time is money and when it takes away from your production, you should be compensated.
Thwap the husband on the head, buy the keyboard, save the receipt, deduct it from your taxes.

I wouldn't even ask my husband for something like that, any more than he asks me if he can fill up his car with gas so he can get to work! Sheesh! What a prince of a guy you've got there....  You get your keyboard, girl! 


I have never been asked to show a receipt at Walmart. Is the Walmart you shop in a bad neighborhood
And the expensive stuff has an alarm on it for the cashier to take off. No receipt check. Just a greeter saying good-bye.
Buy if from your husband. Have him write you a receipt. Write it off completely or
depreciate it over a few years.
