1 = No.
2 = No, but National ID.

I've opened my PayPal account and I've started receiving money but I have just two questions.
1. Is there any expiry date for linking of card? Because I've not linked any card to my PayPal account yet.
2. Can i make use of voter's card when registering for the AFRICARD at UBA? and should I go with passport?

During the PayPal registration, was there anyone that put a fake National ID number or Driver's License number?
Will it proceed?

Instead of fake, why not voter's card or national id?

1. I seriously don't know.
2. The bank told me National ID and Nepa Bill. I don't remember them giving an alternative. Passport = YES.

One step at a time, bro. The pay attached to the longer calls is attractive, but I still love the sight of ratings. Not slgetting any rating remarks is enough joy actually.

Boss I need you to put me through opening the Lesotho PayPal. The one I opened few days ago was limited after I received only one payment. So, I think maybe it was actually the procedure I used in opening it. Thanks

Check your inbox or spam folder for a mail from qa with your login details. Login and change your password, enter your PayPal account, watch the tutorial video, transcribe a short call and get a minimum of 3 rating on that call and start EARNING!

Aren't there other transcription websites where one could be free from British accent barrier?

Yes you can be self employed anywhere you are in the country transcribing for a living.

This thread will teach you everything you need to know to start up and the tools needed to deliver the goods.

You would need

1. A PC, tab or mobile phone
2. Affordable internet connection
3. Good head phones
4 Good command of English

Everything else can be learned on this thread. For those of us who have already started transcribing, we're welcome to share our ideas here so that this can be our online community.

To avoid this thread being banned, kindly let us adhere to all the rules of Nairaland.

Should we want to share screenshots, kindly let's block the company and important call info.

Also all forms of advertising is prohibited and will be reported.

Edited 9/7/2019 posted by samsard for newbies. Once you master these, the rest go easy

E.g
Rep: I was gonna, uhmmm, I was gonna tell ya about, about the new product we launched.
What they need: I was going to tell you about the new product we launched.

Punctuation: Hello, Philip. It's Emily calling from CLH Group. How're you doing today?
Cust: I'm fine, thank you. And how are you?

Longer calls will be more complex in terms of punctuation but for a start
A comma before and after a name in mid sentence. A comma before or after a name in salutation.
You're also allowed MINOR corrections for making clear transcripts.
Anyway, read through the FAQ and regularly Consult it while working at least till you acquaint yourself with it's detail

Please some of us seems so not tech savvy but please,what is this all about?

They're achievable, but they draw blood! lipsrsealed
The one I did, the last 10 minutes took as much time as the initial 30, it was crazy because a second rep came on the line and his accent almost killed me grin I needed occasional breaks, plenty Google and contextual thinking to finish it as I wouldn't let 30 minutes go to waste because of the last 10 grin
