Q: Is there a minimum amount of dictation we must provide?
A: No. There is no minimum requirement. You can dictate one week, and then decide you don’t need any transcription for weeks or months. Your account will always remain active.
Q: How do I get my dictation to you?
A: Dictating process: We have toll-free phone line that is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You are assigned a user ID number to allow you access to the system. Or, if you prefer, we can set you up on our secure FTP site to transfer voice files dictated on your hand-held digital recorder.
Q: Are there any startup fees?
A: No.
Q: Do you offer a free trial?
A: Yes! Faber Transcription offers one full report to be dictated via our secure phone lines.
Q: How long does it take to get a new dictator set up to dictate?
A: If you are using our phone-in lines, it will only take five minutes. If you need a new recorder set up on the FTP site, our IT person would need to connect with you. That can usually be done the same day.
Q: What is the turnaround time?
A: We provide a 24-hour turnaround time for dictation unless you alert us otherwise. Just let us know your office’s needs, and we will accommodate them at no extra charge.
