Go to the business section. You’ll find the E-currency market thread.
Be careful...
How will the transaction be done. Never done it before. Asking so I don't get ripped off. I just checked a friend's Lesotho PayPal that I helped him open. It can withdraw to africard. Don't know if I should try linking my africard to his PayPal. Separate names on card and PayPal account.

If you’re going to add your card to the new PayPal, you need to remove it from the first one.
At your own risk though. PayPal no get joy.

Same thing happened to me sometime last week, deck nine vs Deck 9, used "nine" cos I assumed it's less than 10 right?..funny thing is the correction also had deck 9, engaged Arlen and she said this
"In any rating notes, there are markdowns provided which will not necessarily merit a failing rating" so it's more than just what they actually say in the rating notes. It's a bit confusing to TBH.
I feel the set of guys recently added to handle the rating are yet to get hold of the FAQ. That was rated 2 for not transcribing a word that was not relevant to the conversation.

We should bring this Arlen's attention. We can't be having incompetent QAs rating our jobs... Someone'll spend long hours on a job only for them to rate your job poorly.
It's so not funny.

Deck is physical. So, deck 9 not deck nine.
For you to be rated a 2, you must have accumulated a lot WRONGs.
The more mistakes you accumulate, the lower your rating.
And omitted content outside of fillers is Auto 1.
The QAs do get penalized when they're too lenient or not thorough enough.
Re: Self Employment Opportunity: Transcribing For A Living In Nigeria Part 1 by samsard(m): 8:18am On Nov 14, 2019
For those of you who don't understand the number rule, anything physical is transcribed in numerals even if less than 10.
The more mistakes you accumulate, the lower your rating.
I've been able to score 5s with twice over the inaudible limit because I tied every other loose end.
I get rated 4s with a mistake in transcribing numerals. Because they know it's one isolated case, which is mostly due to occasional errors.
If you get a 2, Just know you didn't do a thorough job.

Ask for rating clarification from available SCC.

These guys will just be confusing peeps. My job was marked down because I transcribed "two separate cabins." I engage an SCC, who said it should've been "2 separate cabins."

Now, look what I found on Slack. I've also received a rating note about "4-year tenure", which is why I now transcribe "four-year tenure."

But seriously, this is not funny. I didn't use to mind much in the past (it's just afew cents off), but since a perfect profile ensures you get jobs, I'm not finding it funny anymore.

Man this week get as e be o. Only got two 5 rating rest na 4. and 3. I dont know what's doing them.

If the customer's response is in response to a question the rep asked, it should be transcribed. Otherwise, ignore the customer and continue till the rep stops.

Oh. Yes, you'll see the time (1hr 10mins) up there on the same line as the rep's name and company.

Meanwhile, a 2min call to be finished in 1hr or more is a British call. Except your ears are trained for their accents, please steer clear of those.
An American 2min call is usually from 40mins.

Good morning everyone. Please I have a few questions. Been seeing complaints from those who opened a South African PP account. I'm yet to attach an Africard to it(No time). Can I dump it and open a Lesotho own which I'll edit on my QA profile? Would it be a problem or I have to create a new QA account.

Theres's no issue with changing PayPal email as long as you do it before cutoff time. So, you can get your funds in the right PayPal.

If you followed the instructions on that pdf of how to open a South Africa account. Then you’re good to go. Because the link in that file is not even for a South Africa PayPal. But Saudi Arabia PayPal.
And Saudi PP Can withdraw to card.

Oh. South Africa has the "za" link from what I saw online. If Saudi Arabia has no issues, I'm wondering why most on this thread use Lesotho. I just wanna use a popular one so if I encounter issues, I'd have people who can answer based on experience. You've been helpful, thanks smiley

Kpele. Nothing is easy in life. But hardwork and dedication, as well as attention to detail makes it seem easy.

Did you take note of the rating notes before attempting the redo?

It's important you take note of what you did wrong initially, so you know what to improve on.

Keep on trying and share your testimony soon.

If you want to sell your PayPal fund at good rate, I recommend Nosazee14. He's reliable. I just sold to him this morning and I'm impressed by his honesty.
