Complaint Review: Transam Associates

I signed up with Transam Associates about 7 or 8 months ago. I was told that I needed to buy the MT Professional software in order to train and work for them after I passed their tests. I chatted with a specialist and told them that I did not have the money at that time to buy for the program.

The specialist then began explaining to me that they are just a training program and that they are offering me to work for them once I pass their training. I was excited and paid for the program with the money I didn't have.

I began the training and got more and more frustrated that I could not pass a test. I talked to my Aunt (a nurse) and my Uncle (a doctor) and they both thought that the testing process was extremely strict.

They entered me into a "free" medical terminology course, which was a perk of my being trained to go to "live work". I took the course and passed with about a 96. I asked for a certificate of some sort and was told that I will not receive a certificate because the course was free. RIGHT THERE, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN.

After not being able to pass any of the test given prior to my reason for this complaint, I was moved on to shorter dictations that would be better for me to do and qualify my quicker for "live work".

I received my first test this morning and the doctor was a completely different voice than what I was practicing for the last 3 or so weeks.

I am very aggravated and this was just the last straw. I would not recommend this company to anyone for work or even the training.

I will fight to get my money back to go towards an accredited training program so that I may move forward to working from home and spending more time with my child.
