'Diane, from Audiotranscripts, transcribed a range of digital focus group recordings for The Qualitative Election Study of Britain that investigated the 2010 election.  The recordings each involved up to ten participants with varying regional accents; they were completed to a high standard of accuracy and routinely produced before the agreed deadlines.  I would not hesitate to use or recommend Diane’s services for research projects, having found her to be extremely efficient and reliable.'

'Diane has transcribed on a number of occasions for various projects of mine. She transcribed a set of key informant interviews, with accuracy and care. She also transcribed a set of focus groups, coping admirably with the difficulties of group transcription and the problems caused by, for example individuals speaking over each other, and the difficulties of identifying distinct individuals from their voices alone. She also transcribed a series of semi-structured interviews with respondents from a wide range of backgrounds, many of whom had a language other than English as their first language. In all cases the transcriptions were completed to a high standard of accuracy and completeness, were helpfully laid out, and were completed promptly. We would typically agree timetabling in advance; Diane always kept me informed about when I could expect the transcriptions to be completed, often ahead of the expected time.
She was easy and pleasant to work with across all the projects. The quality of the transcriptions represented good value for money; and I would certainly use Diane's transcription service again for future projects.'

'We had interviewed almost thirty local authority high-ranked managers.  These interviews, some of them of considerable length and often done in noisy surroundings, were very important for our investigation of how English local authorities cope with litigation.  What we needed, thus, was to work with a very reliable and efficient assistant, familiar with various technical jargons, who could also deliver the transcriptions in a short period of time.  Diane Streeting was the perfect choice.'

'Diane did a fantastic job for us transcribing interviews gathered in a recent prototype evaluation study for the EU.  We were working to tight timescales and I was concerned about finding someone reputable and reliable to transcribe the data. Diane, responded immediately producing accurate and timely transcriptions that helped us meet our deadlines.'
