Don't believe that!! http://www.proz.com/?sp=profile&sp_mode=contact&eid_s=1452160
2) Did you meet the deadline?
Yes, of course. Mails can prove.
3) Did the outsourcer complain about the quality of your work?
No. Didn't hear a word.
4) Was payment delayed or not received at all?
50% of payment is not received at all.
5) What did the outsourcer answer to your inquiries about payment?
I asked for several times, the answer was just 2 words "This week" for several times. Not even with an apology.
However, It has been 3 months!
I was so naive to believe such a scam!
6) Would you work for this outsourcer again?
Absolutely No!
It is good to see whoever searching for "banu translators" will get "enough" information about this cheating group. hehehehehe.. She or he should be having so think skin so that they will not feel shame!
Banu invited me into her LinkedIn network. I deleted her invitation after seeing so many complaints against her.
Hello,
I have worked with Flatworldsolutions - Audio Transcription Services, Medical Audio Transcription, Audio Files Transcription Services & struggling hard to get my hard earned money. All translators & other worker are be aware about them & make sure you don't face such issues with them.
Thanks,
Have you worked as translator for Flatworld Solutions and didn't get paid? I have done some transcribing / translating for their agent who goes by the name John Hyde. After I sent the first file, I never heard from him again. Tried to contact him in different ways, but there is no luck. Did you experience the same? What did you do? How can I get paid and should I keep translating for them? thanks a lot
Hi,
I have faced similar issue as per yours. Please stop working with them i.e:- Flatworld Solutions Pvt. Ltd. and spread this news in your groups/contacts. John Hyde will use your work to en-cash payment from their clients however they will say you as sample.
Don't get cheated again & also inform your colleagues/network. Flatworld Solutions Pvt. Ltd. is an agent who seems to work on behalf of their clients & when it comes to payment- they will disappear. As you have faced this situation.
Be Aware!
Thank you! I have figured them out as well by now. John Hyde, after I had done 40 hours of intense work, scripting and translating, explained to me that they were paying $40 not per hour (as initially promised) but per file time, meaning if the file is 120 min long, then the pay is $60. I was stunned. Seeing my reaction, he said he was a good Christian and was going to pay me extra, which came to $170. Ridiculous. I did take the payment that arrived 2 months later, but am not going to work with them again. I was told that Indian companies are best avoided. Thank you for confirming my conclusions.
It's ridiculous to know that they changed their words & paid something different than promised. Moreover late. you should ask premium for it.
Most of time they will approach as sample to win projects.
Hope you learnt a lesson from Flatworld Solutions Inc.
Hi,
It's glad that ultimately you got payment however they are used to push payment time & at last you won't receive any penny from them. Also they are clever in payment clearance as remittance charges will be deducted from your earning.
Did you faced same thing Irina?>
