Okay. Thanks for the reply. As for the question, I meant the latter. In the sample video, I noticed the work was already segmented into different timestamps, if I'm not mistaken. But, yesterday while taking my first works, I did'nt see anything of such. Hence, my question.

I will go through the FAQ again. Thank you.
You're on the new transcription platform.

Unless it's the new platform, the work is always segmented to different timestamps. I doubt they would give someone that just joined the new platform..

Try working on another call to see confirm if it's the new platform. If it's the normal old platform, it'll be broken down into various time stamps

Most new transcribers are given a beta platform, while the old members are using the old one. So yours is different.

What's the source of his funds?
PayPal will just wake up and limit your account. Forget the fact that you have been withdrawing without issues. This is PayPal we're talking about o
He gets paid by his Clients from US. He's into some 3d design stuff.
How does one know if his/her PayPal account is limited?

SOR calls are one of the worst calls to transcribe. Terrible audio quality. I have transcribed more than 5 of them but I still end up having a rating below 3. I guess I should just add them to the list of company's call to be avoided.

i used Windscribe VPN at a point in time when I was denied access to login on GLO network. Then I switched to MTN and was able to login.

Meanwhile, how long does it take for PayPal to process transfer to debit card. Just asking for a friend. He's requested transfer and it's still pending for 2:days now
Don't ever use VPN for you PayPal again.

You’ll get a notification if it gets limited . Then you won’t be able to send, recieve or withdraw money. You can only refund money .
But , since you said the money is from someone .
There’s still hope if anything goes wrong , your friend will be able to refund that money back to the sender.

Re: Self Employment Opportunity: Transcribing For A Living In Nigeria Part 1 by thorrvik55(m): 2:30pm On Oct 23, 2019
@Teejaysegxy let me also add that with the dollar africard u won't be able to withdraw from Nigerian ATM's(obviously because Nigerian ATM's are not funded with dollar).

Add your new qa world email address to your existing paypal account (not naija). Then summit the new email to qa world for payment. Each PayPal account can accommodate 7 email addresses at a time.

Check the primary PayPal email.
Well, his account is prime candidate for PayPal limitation.

grin They'll not allow refunds, but the person can request a chargeback. But he'll probably also get his account limited.
