Our Rates: from just 90p per recorded minute
Our rates start at £0.90 per recorded minute and are based on clear, easily understood one to one digital recordings without, for example, excessive interference, strong regional accents and the use of a large number of specialist terms. Large volumes of work or a regular continuous requirement will generate our best rates whereas one-off, short recordings can incur a minimum charge of twenty five pounds (£25) plus VAT.
Before the commencement of any work we will forward you a booking form to be signed and returned. This will clearly detail the cost of the work to be carried out based on the information provided and the previously agreed timescale within which it will be completed.
Hi Janice, Many thanks for your help and prompt attention on this project. I wish everyone I dealt with was similar really I do. You have been very professional and seem lovely with it. Many thanks."
Types Of Transcription
Verbatim:
Exact copy of what is on the recording therefore includes “um”, “er”,”ah”, all repeated words for example “for ever and ever and ever” and all non-standard words, phrases and abbreviations such as “you know”,”cos”,”sort of”, coughs and laughs.
Example:
I was really, really, really pleased cos I er was able to er sail my boat today cos the sun shone and er it wasn’t cold at all in fact it was sort of er hot n even the wind was the right direction (laughs). I um am er planning to er sail again on the ah the um 26th of em July cos I um hope to uh bring my friend Luke cos he’s a bit of a laugh . Only um problem is he is eh always behind with hi his work soo we eh could be um too late to catch the um tide!
Intelligent Verbatim:
Copying what is on the recording but cutting out redundant words and phrases such as “um” “er” “ah” but non-standard English such as “ain’t” and “cos”, abbreviations, contractions such as “don’t” and unfinished sentences are left in. Grammar is not corrected but left as said. This type of transcription is our speediest and therefore our most cost effective for you.
Example:
I was really pleased cos I was able to sail my boat today cos the sun shone and it wasn’t cold at all, in fact it was sort of hot ‘n’ even the wind was the right direction. I am planning to sail again on the 26th of July cos I hope to bring my friend Luke cos he’s a bit of a laugh. Only problem is he is always behind with his work so we could be too late to catch the tide!
Edited Verbatim:
This is useful for clients who want a transcript of a lecture perhaps as it avoids verbal idiosyncrasies of the speakers. Non-standard English, grammar and mis-pronounced words are corrected providing a more formal version of the recording. This type of transcription takes a little longer than the other types we offer and is therefore priced accordingly.
Example:
I was really pleased because I was able to sail my boat today, the sun shone, it was not cold at all, in fact it was hot, even the wind was in the right direction. I am planning to sail again on the 26th of July. I hope to bring my friend Luke because he is a laugh. The only problem is that he is always behind with his work so we could be too late to catch the tide!
