Morning all, great job you are doing here. I have taken time to go through most of this thread and was equally able to read some pages of the previous one before it was taken down. I also printed the FAQ and went through some samples of transcripts on QA. My first attempt at transcribing resulted in a rating of 1 because of IVR(that I actually thought was transcribable as it was the only dialogue throughout and contained vital information). My second attempt was yesterday night (around 11 pm) and I received a mail saying it wasn't ready to be submitted for transcription. Here are the errors noted:
-Reversed rep and customer
-Non-adherence to TransTeam FAQ Format


-I understand the first error-type (even though I took the pain to keep pressing the enter key whenever I notice that the speaker does not correspond with the label, but obviously I must have done something wrong).
-I don't understand anything about TransTeam FAQ Format at all.

I would appreciate all the help I can get as these two transcribed texts have helped discourage me.
Thanks and God bless.

P.S: I just noticed that both customers and reps were talking at the same time and I typed both where I should have typed what the last person said. But I still don't get the second issue.

I have issues with my BVN.
Yeah. They'll need that. Pretty much anything that's got to do with financials in Nigeria requires BVN.

It must've been that statement in your PS. You must have included some part of customer statement in rep's or vice versa. You can either do them on separate lines next time if they both complete their statements or just transcribe the statement that's complete whichever it is be it rep or customer and ignore the incomplete statement. Your 5s soon come. You're already diligent

I thought the card stands on it's own and it's not linked to any bank account?

The most annoying part about those FC and ch tasks is that they are always in a hurry to talk. Is that how British guys talk? Dem too dey rush.

You might not get one that will serve you 'Weller' for that price, but who knows, you might just be lucky. You can check the technology section for dealers. If it's for this gig, then basically, what you'll be looking for is a PC with good ba3 and decent RAM. The ba3 life is key. Will save you a lot.

Slack is the work place community where you can get to connect with other transcribers and moderators who can help you resolve any issues or questions. Just sign-up and the bot will put you through.

For the PayPal, you can follow this link to learn how to do that https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L1TiijdFxxx81cj8a1q5rXZAjeidcQyC/view?usp=drivesdk after opening the PayPal account, go to your nearest UBA branch and tell them you want the international Africard. That's the card you'll use to get your funds directly from PayPal. Please note that you must always log into the Lesotho PayPal using the link provided in the document.

Take some time to read the FAQ and help before you start your first job. It is extremely important.
May god bless u wit the good work u ar doing,i followed de guide to open paypal but its not working pls put me thru

I'm TRYING to learn to work on them, since, that's all the job available these days.

You rarely find the "good" calls to work on... Its like those companies are on holidays or something.... huh

If it's reversed rep or customer. They will tell you at what event ID, so click and check where you made error and if you still have the 90mins to redo, u can correct your mistake. Because that alone is an automatic 1

The card has it's own bank account so to speak, those ten digits at the back that you pay into. I think banks are even being penalized for not including BVN in documentation now. It's needed for everything financial now
