Is this the first test?

Hey, yeah, so you asked about discounts? We don't really offer any to our monthly members, but we do have 5% discount off the annual package, considering you've been a member for nine months and might make sense to switch over to in the annual package, we can prorate the previous nine months. Is that something you'd be interested in? Happy to make that change for you.[font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font]
I use this and I was accepted. Thanks

The pay is very low Sha 0.20$ for a minute that means in order to earn 100$ you got to do 500minutes.

Good day all.. I'm having a serious issue.. I've passed the test successfully. The main problem now is to open a PayPal account.. Note: I have the PDf that was dropped and I followed the instructions carefully.. The main issue is the postal code portion.. It keeps saying that it's wrong even though it's the right code.. Who has this same issue and how did you resolve it? Help

No minimum per se but you should be fast enough. Decent speed is all right. Ability to hear what the speaker is saying is more important

I also had the issue. Not until I realise that the postal code is the Nigerian one (23401).

I will. but didn't get approved by Rev.
I guess those guys low key want only Americans and British jare. I will try Scribie as someone suggested. They claim to pay $0.5 to $2 for a 6 minute file. QA does $1.2. Does anyone have any idea how much TranscribeMe actually pays? Like on their platform, not the one they use for ads. So we go know where to gravitate too. These FC calls wan pursue person
