    What Universities are saying about our Academic Research Transcription Services

    What can I say other than that this was an excellent, efficient and friendly service? It was also a lifeline in a week when flu prevented me from progressing my research to meet a planned deadline.

    Juliet Davis – Cardiff University


    Uploading and knowing the status of transcriptions is incredibly easy, their transcriptions are accurate and clear, and the turnaround really quick. Above all I’d recommend the great customer service, they are so helpful and actively problem solve, it is rare to find a company that commits to their customers like this and much appreciated.

    Andrea Gibbons – University of Salford


    Not the cheapest in the market, but you get what you pay for – always quick, efficient and accurate. Friendly communications too.

    Emma Davidson -The University of Edinburgh


    Great communication from start to finish with quality transcriptions provided well within the agreed timeframe.
