HOW DO TRANSLATION COMPANIES PRICE THEIR WORK?

Different companies will use different methods to price a job. Some companies will charge per "target word" or even "target symbol". This is a calculation based on the translated text which means that you have to wait until the translation is finished before knowing what you have to pay. It is not uncommon to hear that companies have been known to over-elaborate a translation in order to increase the word count in the finished document. Other methods of calculating a translation quote are "per page" and "per line".

When dealing with us, your English-Polish translation will be charged per "source word". It is a set price based on the amount of words in your original English document. The price is fixed before any work commencesThis makes everything clear from the start. Also, depending on your own circumstances, we can quote in the currency of your choice and fix the exchange rate at the start of work, not the end.

HOW DO TRANSLATION COMPANIES OPERATE?

When working with anyone it is always a good idea to look into the qualifications of the people who are running that business. Find out about their linguistic ability, you may be surprised to know that a great many companies offering translation from English to Polish are run by people who have no linguistic qualifications. Also it is a good idea to look into their business experience, organisational skills, admin efficiency, etc…

These are always difficult questions to resolve because no company likes give away too much, especially if it is not in their interests to do so. However, a good indication of how well a company operates is to see how long they have been in business. If they have been around for a number of years and no one is saying bad things about them, then that has to be a good sign that they are worth dealing with.

Any company offering English to Polish translations should be transparent about the way they operate. If anything goes wrong you need to be able to contact people directly, not just by email. Some companies will not give a full postal address on their website, or will use a box number instead. It is always wise to be cautious in these cases because if they stop answering your correspondence, or worse still run off with your money, you will find it hard to track them down.
