From my research, I doubt if they can decipher British accent too. The more reason they want people to transcribe those calls.
Yeah

Hey guys, is there anyone operating two accounts linked to one Paypal account that got paid?

Although, the FAQ says two people shouldn't share one account. Anyone?

It’s not as easy as it seem .
It’s just that most people that are having hard time at it don’t comment about it on here .

For those worried about not having a suitable setup for this work, here's a suggestion.
Can work with Android Phones/Tablets and even enhance the experience for PC Users.
Get a Bluetooth Keyboard and mouse.

Connect them to your device and then you can use the keyboard for typing (with full options and shortcuts available) and the mouse for changing the speaker tags easily.
I hope this helps.
Cheers.

Using phone to transcribe sucks though. But then, my last six calls are all 5stars. Thanks to all the guys who have been putting us through with different tips on this thread.

I used one week in reading comments and FAQ. and it's paying off.

It's called NEXTAPP. i make use of it to listen to missing audios and in reducing the speed of the audio while I type with SwiftKey. I make at least $5 daily with my phone. smiley smiley

Good day everyone, I really want to say thank you to everyone that has contributed to this thread in sharing knowledge. God bless you.
Please ,I am still on opening the PayPal account. I followed the step by step process for South Africa account but at a point I got stuck so I had to open it on my laptop . Some of the issues I have are:
1. I used my voters card as Id but made a mistake with the digits while submitting. What do I do?
2.How do I link it to my account via setting? Seems the dashboard is updated from the template used to teach.
Attached is a picture of where I am stuck. Thanks.
I want to know if I am on the right path and if I am correct for choosing savings.
3.what is the routing number to choose? I had to cover those ones I don't know if they might me important

The comments here, and the FAQ on Q.. A site. I read all the comments. And if you go through the comments, a guy shared a link of sample transcript.

Then, it has to do with your punctuation know-how too.

Bro. My major challenge is in typing. Which browser do you use, and do you experience any challenge with what you typing running into the extreme part of the screen? Where the "release options and co tend to block your view.

If you don't mind, you can share a screenshot of your workspace. Or just tell me how you do it...Thanks.

Lol.. I use chrome. No need for screen shots because I experience same thing. Well, I've gotten used to it and it's no longer a barrier.. What I normally do is once I'm done editing where I can see, I'll select and cut it. Then I'll work on those side I can't see. After working, I'll paste the one i cut.. Just try and find a means that'll work for you.

Why not open a prepaid account with UBA? it's called AFRICARD. Did you read that part of the thread where you'll need to open a prepaid account?

puffin displays your transcripts without any problem on phone but the only problem with puffin is it can reload itself anytime and you might have to start afresh.
what I simply do while using chrome or Mozilla on phone is switch phone to landscape mode and I'd have a better view of my work

I'd suggest that you back read on the thread. Go to page 40 and help yourself so that you won't find it difficult when withdrawing. What you need is a UBA Africard.. Back read on the thread.
