Greatihex:
oga samsard, abeg reply me o.

Sorry.
I had no issue with it. PayPal are very much aware of where we are using it from

odizeey:
I feel angry, just seeing his moniker. I Kayusdguy getting slammed for his "sure solution"

The nigga is still speaking with an air of authority after everything he caused

dgunz:
come who is this fake Samsung name samsard i dont own any apologies cos i dont know you, i gave out that information cos it was working at the time i gave out and now it stops and i came looking for solution which i did get, i was only angry in my first statement today cos i wonder why someone will ask a question to a bank or PayPal, why there card arent working knowing fully well that it not allowed to be so, if you are pained please transfer that energy to nepa to give me light ok

i don't blame you.

dgunz:
oga define philosophical, and if you can then you should know that i did not hold your balls or prick to force you to get the cardi only gave advice which, is your choice or anyone else and anyone that tries to get it is much reasonable cos he or she is trying to get solution to there problem so sort your self to your thought cos it not adding to my bank account

You're just rambling. Get the Bleep out. You came sounding like you had a sure solution leading people to chase the wind. Of this wasn't a virtual world you'd have received general beating

dgunz:
i regretted of sharing an information about Stanbic ibtc , just look at what someone is doing asking uba why their card is not working with PayPal knowing that PayPal Nigeria is not allowed to withdraw funds and this method was a loophole to them and PayPal, and this why uba officials start to make survey by calling everyone using the card cos they do not know about this card can be linked to get funds out of PayPal,

just like as i saw someone asking PayPal that there africard was not withdrawing there funds from there PayPal in Nigeria, am just so pissed off, anyway, this platform has been educative, but sometimes it better you keep some secret to your self so you won't have issues and anyone trying to get Stanbic ibtc well, all gtpsecure cards (this governs africard and other prepaid cards) have been blocked from PayPal, so you are wasting your time getting it if you want to withdraw your funds from PayPal except a miracle happens which i doubt,

After leading people on wild goose chase with Stanbic you appear now to sound philosophical?

DavictimIsDope:
Na war for una on this nairaland...I am not the only one who was able to withdraw through africard and it's still pending,I know atleast 3 others.. but I'm here giving the updates so it'll help people make decisions about which is better and some are still saying whatever they want ..that's why I have always been a ghost nairalander..I won't comment or say anything as regards this africard issue anymore..Happy selling of PayPal funds to you people.

I know some were still able to withdraw even after most of us couldn't at the start. Just shun negative comments and update us

Olabowa:
$0.50 for 6 minute is absurd.

Really absurd.

nwafresh:
Lol.. Bro.. You bad.. I'm just hoping for Qa to answer us base on payment method. My job is hindering me from reading that GT's Book of Moses.

Take your time.

nwafresh:
Don't tell me you're also on that platform?

I'm omnipresent

Sultty:
I want oil to be rendered useless so useless in price since Nigerian leaders refuse to receive sense and are so proud I'll like to see what's left of them

Unfortunately, everyone will suffer direct and indirect consequences, our currency will soon become half useless and that means poorer economic indexes. The average politician has a safe stash of dollars that is relatively insulated from devaluation

EliteStriker:
This is a call to action for countries that depend on oil revenue to diversify. Our Tourism industry is still untapped talk more of services.

When we don't even have security you're mentioning tourism.

Greatihex:
lol, let me just stick with my QAWorld.

They sometimes have easy calls though. And no need for speaker tagging. You can withdraw anytime you like. But the downside is low pay for most files, better paying ones are mostly absent.

Olabowa:
And I almost joined few days ago o.

The best I've seen is $10 per audio hour. The files are broken into smaller portions though. But you sometimes get $0.50 a 6 minute audio

kamikaz1:
Lol. So If e enter now, na to dey wait 2 2 weeks? Chai

At least e succeed withdraw

kamikaz1:
Na wah oo. March 17 ke?

At least if e enter. Seem the guy is an Africard VIP

Greatihex:
lol, let me just stick with my QAWorld.

They have varying pay, but imagine being as low as $5 for a one hour audio, very ridiculous regardless of how clear it may be.

Scribie's pay is so low that it is ridiculous even by third world standards, imagine $5 an audio hour.

Nigerians are learning scam where Indians are

Someone said that the Stanbic card doesn't attach to PayPal, I wonder how a Visa card will not add. There must be some other problem.

Sirnickk:
Bro, it's not a matter of the leaderboard; it's a matter of what you said. You said you complete a 10-minute call in 30 minutes. I complete a 10-minute call in just over one hour, which I believe is tenderfigure's range. Now, let's do a simple calculation; you did mathematics in school, right? If you complete a 10-minute call in 30 minutes, then you'll need only 5 hours to get to 100 minutes in a day. Let's add four hours to that in case of other things that'll take your time. Going by this calculation and your "incredible speed", you should be hitting 400 minutes with ease in just four days and over 600 minutes in a week. However, the screenshot you posted here, which is obviously your best, shows just 400 minutes in a week. This means that your incredible fast ass is slower than tenderfigure's humble fingers, which is definitely very well over an hour. If you wan lie, make e get logical backing. No just come here dey throwey lie when e no dey put money for your Africard. Post a screenshot of 600 minutes, and it'll tally with the speed you claim to have. 400 minutes is achievable even without working on a Monday. If you still don't get the simple mathematics, then I guess my question has been answered: you no do maths for school.

You're not factoring in fatique and breaks. Anyway, Ralph was hitting over 1000 minutes of 4s and 5s weekly, I don't think he was spending one hour one 10 minutes to achieve that. People like Arlen and Pau C even delete the AI transcript to type everything from scratch( probably not everytime though). Also, the numbers on the leaderboard are sometimes way lessn the figure.

tenderfigure:
Yeah, there are some dynamics to it, bro. If you're going to work and edit a 10 mins call, for instance, it means you are going to have to listen to the call twice. That's 20 mins already. So, is he trying 2 tell me that he uses just 10 mins to type and make all the necessary corrections? D guy no think hin lie well. Let's be realistic.

There's no need dragging the issue. There are always exceptional people.

crystalwox:
in addition, you need to earn up to $50 to withdraw to Payoneer, withdrawal is not auto like PayPal, you would have to chat admin with your email every time I want to withdraw to Payoneer. And you have to be ready to initiate your withdrawal few minutes after the weekly rated payments have cleared which happens every 1am on Fridays.

Now as per comparing the two platforms, these are my observations.
Similarities of both platforms
1. Both platforms pay low, GT just almost insignificantly higher.
2. Both pay on 'thursdays' slight differences based on their locations.
3. Flexibility in choosing when to work.
4. Rating system is 1 to 5
5. PayPal can be used as a firm of receiving monies earned
6. Both usually have enough calls if you are dedicated
7. Both use speaker labels, QA speaker labels are easier and constant, while GTs can be very diverse and wrong tagging can cost low ratings.
8. Both have transcription tools, most well established transcription companies do.
9. There are lenient and strict QAs or editors.
10. There are more and easier jobs in the middle of the night/early mornings.

Differences
1. GT trains you better to get external jobs, cos u would be a better transcriber. If I can consistently maintain a rating of around 4.3 to 4.6, your private clients will stick with you cos of your quality.
2. It's easier to earn on QA compared to GT, provided you master QA transcription platform properly.
3. It's easier to assimilate GT training and rules initially, but there a are a lot more to learn when you start.
4. QA deals only with calls, while GT does all kinds of transcription.
5. There is format specifications on GT, i.e full verbatim, clean verbatim, speaker change timestamps, or time interval timestamps.
6. Review of your work on QA is faster as it may take hours to even 5 days for your work to be rated on GT. Editors on GT usually run from bad files too just as transcribers.
7. GT transcription tool can be used for non-GT calls, and it's one of the easiest way to transcribe if its use is understood.
8. QA calls text are pre-transcribed by their platform, while GT does not. U can even get all the transcripts for a QA call by extracting the source file.
9. QA entry test will be like a child's play to pass for a regular GT transcriber. GT transcriber test is harder to pass.
10. You can easily earn more on GT by becoming an editor (QA) after achieving a minimum of 4.5 rating over 400 minutes of calls in a 60 day window period.

Will share more as I remember. Thanks.

Please is there a redo option on GoT?

nwafresh:
PayPal do charge $5 for any withdrawal, what about payoneer?

I can't say for sure, though. Just Google it.

crystalwox:
Yea, I figured. But...

Big BUT. It takes a military attitude to even attempt those.

nwafresh:
Bro, unlike PayPal that we had to follow that PDF for Lesotho or SA. should I just go to payoneer site and just follow the instructions dia?

Yeah, sure.

tenderfigure:
Yes, this is realistic. It takes me one hour or a little less to get done with a 10 mins call, but 30 mins... That na lie. Except you mean without editing it.

Actually for one-hour audio, fatique will set in. It is very much possible for 10 minutes file. Some people type over 100 words per minute, slower for transcription but you get the gist. I have never benchmarked myself, though. But I know I usually complete long files in less than half time with lazying around.

crystalwox:
11. Ratings can be challenged on GT and upgraded on by admin if you actually have genuine reason. It can be as good as moving from 2 rating to 5. Some editors just have bad days and decide to take it out on transcribers

12. GT offers Payoneer as a payment method.

13. You get paid for all calls rated on GT even if your score was 2, but a penalty will be deducted which can even be up to 70% of what u earned on that call if you actually had too many errors.

I just saw a 10 minute British call for $7 USD

Mekanus:
Does their work platform support smartphones.

I don't think it'd work well on mobile, but what do I know.

tenderfigure:
;

I no won know weda hin na Flash, dis one na lie from the pit of sambisa.

If you be fast typist or editor and audio clear, e dey possible.

"How much time does it take to transcribe an hour of audio? The short answer: The industry standard is four hours of transcription time for one hour of clear audio, or a 4:1 ratio – that is, one hour of transcription time for a 15-minute-long recording."

tenderfigure:
Bro, no vex. Do u mean you complete a 10 mins call on QA in 30 minutes?

Person wey dey work on British calls normal normal

nwafresh:
Thanks. I need to open a payoneer account then. I don't have one. Does it work like PayPal where I can link my Africard for withdrawal?

No, you can order their card after you've received $30 in payments or simply withdraw to your bank account directly.
