Transcription Express Don't Waste Your Time! Gilbert Arizona
Although the company is not an actual type-at-home scam business, you will not earn much money and it will take months before you break even, which is when everyone usually leaves so you wind up wasting months of your time and left in financial despair. They now even charge up-front fees $475 for transcription euipment that they "lease" to you for almost double what you could buy it for and are not honest enough to tell you until it's too late that you could go out and buy an actual "old-fashioned" machine for you to use and actually own until it's only two days before you need it and then it's too late. And yes, you never see that money back. Plus, they have increased the "termination fee" so what they are doing, is ensuring that they have people work for them for free, knowing full well that with the hundreds of dollars in "fees" they charge, it's as though they received all your work for free.
Now even if you do stay around a bit, you will never see the kinds of money they claim on their website and will be lucky to make the minimum of $300-400 a month shown which means anyone who thought they had an income was wrong. What they pay for page is also less than half of what medical transcriptionists are paid as well as multiple times less than what companies who hire employees to transcribe also pay.
Also, you are not an employee, you are a sub-contractor, which means they found the legal loopholes to govern everything about the "job" you do for them except the hours you work and then don't tell anyone in training that not only will they have to file a Schedule C for self-employment on their taxes, but that they will also owe Uncle Sam both halves of Social Security or in other words, a minimum of 30% of their net income in just federal taxes (plus there's also Arizona taxes) after taking off just a few expenses like "fees" and mileage from their income.
There's a reason why they have a HUGE turnover - people walk out as soon as they can after the date set for the "early termination fee", if they last that long. You never see a smiling face there, just people complaining about how terrible the quality of the tapes are.
Don't waste your time with this company - you will regret it.
