We as a translator know that translation agencies try to
rip-off our countless hours sitting down doing the translation

there are not too many secretes to be revealed, it is easy:
they already got paid while they cover their own expenses and
waiting for another job to pay you. Is that simple!
This translation payment practice
website is a public service when it comes to
inquire about a business or individual that his or
her practices are least to desire. This is the only way to get their attention: negative publicity.
Eventually, they will realize it and pay you. Don’t be stupid! Ask for 50% upfront. If they refuse, then, you know that they are not serious. Look for direct clients and let it go translation agencies.

 individuals make a profit on storing a database.

These are the most common and louzy excuses

The following excuses are:

1.) Do not answer phone calls
(hide behind voice mail)

2.) Hide behind the monitor.

 3) Pay via paypal, get the service, are
satisfied and then turn around and place a
charge back with a lousy excuse that the charge was
not authorized.

4) Make their own conclusions and set justice with
their own hands.

5) Never reply to email messages in
regards to the matter.

6) “Oh I need to wait the client pay me
so I can pay you bullshit.

7.) “Oh! We only pay within 90 days bullshit!”

8) “Oh! we do not use paypal, can you accept a “Check”?
(do you really believe that?)
 only issue checks that
bounces whenever one deposit, or even
“stew” you to believe that the check was indeed mailed.

7) All the imaginable “Oh!” I am very so sorry Bullshit
one can imagine
Translation agencies to believe all translators
are stupids or idiots

8) Shabby business practices on hold funds from customers
and releasing them at their own convenience.
Wepay.com will tell you
that you are prone for issues! Bunch of bullshit!

9)Paypal is the worse online payment system!
Do a google search
on paypal customer complaints.

10) One-way right. Customer is very powerful, and
invincible, and always “right” behind
a computer screen or telephone with
irrational and uneducated manners.

11) Oh! I am so sorry for the fucking inconvenience, blah blah blah!

Translation Agencies don’t care for you! Remember that!
