Why do people call Psychic Lines?

Why do people call Psychic lines? It is a very good question because answering this question gives you the potential to improve your readings and really give every customer an exceptional experience, every time they call. I've often pondered this question myself and over the years I have come to some probable conclusions. So lets dive in and see exactly why I think our customers call psychic lines and why they call back so frequently. Some of the reasons will shock you and some will be the standard, "Ah, yes I thought so."

Every time I look at our live screen and see call after call, knowing that every caller is really receiving a most honest, welcoming and truly personal psychic or tarot reading, it really makes me feel very good. With that said, I always believe that there is room for improvement in every situation and if you do have a psychic tarot job with us now, you can always improve your readings, even after years worth of experience. Having a spiritual gift is one amazing benefit however in order to put that gift to real use, you need to know how to connect to people, how to make them feel at ease and also to give them realistic hope and insight into their current situations.

Why do people call psychic lines?

They are spiritually in tune 
Many psychics and tarot readers cannot read very accurately for themselves. It takes one exceptional reader to read for an another experienced psychic and many of our readers do that on a daily basis. Some of our customers are also well researched about the spiritual side of life and their treat is to fully immerse themselves into a psychic reading with a dedicated and reliable psychic or tarot reader.

Love Issues
I would say by far that this is the most common reason why people call psychic services. Facing a relationship problem especially if the relationship is somewhat toxic, can be really frustrating and a psychic or tarot card reading can really alleviate some of those anxieties that can be created when dealing with a love issue. So many people stay in controlling or "bad" relationships and they sometimes need a friendly person to speak to who can give them some non judgmental guidance. Lots of callers dial our service because they are experiencing confusing love problems, controlling partners, partners that are not faithful or even issues with their ex partners.

Social Avoidance
Yes it is true that most people nowadays come home from work, lock the door and do not speak to another soul, unless they live with them. When our social skills break down, we find it harder to explain our feelings and fears and without a way of releasing these pent up emotions we normally end up very depressed. However, if the caller can explain their feelings, even if it is by phone, to a willing and listening psychic then that can take away some of the burden that they may be carrying. If we lived in a society 100 years ago with the same social interactions, then there would be no demand for psychic lines, however we are now more socially avoidant and there is definitely a demand for psychic services because of this.

Loneliness
This goes without saying. To think of people feeling lonely makes me very upset. In this day and age, no one should feel lonely or be alone. However it is unavoidable and some people will suffer this to some degree. At 4am in the morning when callers from the UK are still calling through, they are normally either very lonely or they are calling because they have something troubling them, like a love issue. Love and relationship problems can make us feel very lonely indeed, especially if there is no one you can confide in and tell them all of your fears about a relationship. This is where our psychics and tarot readers really flourish, because providing a lonely person with a sympathetic listening ear can really help to resolve and anxiety or frustration that they may be facing in their lonely hour.

Curiosity
So many people have heard about psychic and medium services yet they are not quite sure what they are all about. As our service is relatively affordable, they tend to give it a go just to see what it is all about and most of the time they have very positive readings which leads them onto a love journey for psychic services! I know of many first time callers that just wanted to see what all the fuss is about and they really enjoy their experience with our readers. Curiosity callers make up a lot of our late night callers and sometimes they call in with their friend on the phone as well.

There are many, many reasons why people call and speak to our readers. Some people are going through such emotional times that they will do anything to speak to a normal, nice, considerate and spiritually enriched person on the phone. We are really providing a service which helps so many people and that is why it is imperative that when you apply for a psychic or tarot job, that your spiritual skills are very genuine and that your personality gives time for people that are really suffering and need someone to listen to their issues.

Information for International Operators

Recently we have started recruiting Operators from outside of the UK as we know that there is some amazing talent out there and we are so excited that we can now accept operators from the USA, Canada and Australia. We understand that working for an international company does take some getting used to! We all do things differently from perhaps what you are used to and that is why we decided to write this blog post to help our new international recruits and to ensure that everything is fully explained. Of course if you do have any further questions, you can always email me at lauren@livelinesuk.com and I will be most happy to help.

Here are our top International Operator questions!

How do you guys work?
We give you a PIN and a PASS number which will allow you to log on and off our service through your phone. Logging on and off takes approx 30 seconds and you will be given a local telephone number to call, so there are no international rates to worry about!

How do you pay us?
We have two options, we can pay you by PayPal or Direct Deposit. We would not recommend PayPal as they take a fee out of your revenue amount, we would however recommend direct deposit because we absorb the fee to transfer the money to you, so it will not cost you. During your telephone training, we will ask you how you would like to be paid and take down your details.

Do you pay us in our currency?
When you log on to see your revenue statement, you will see that the total amount is in £'s. To convert the amount to your currency, please use: http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter When we make payments to you, the amount will be converted into your currency.

When are your pay dates?
Our pay dates are every 2 weeks on a Friday. When you are trained, the supervisor will tell you when your first pay date is. Your revenue statement is uploaded every two weeks (onto your log on section) on a Wednesday. Please note that your call times are listed as UK times, not your local times. We find this time converter link very handy! https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html

Can I use a Cell phone? 
UK, Australian and Canadian operators must use a landline in order to take the calls. Operators in the US can take calls on their cell phones. All phones must be clear of voicemail and call waiting. This is imperative as you will miss calls with these services on your phone.

Do you take on operators in any other countries?
If you live in another country, in order to take calls you will need to use Voip or Skype. You will have to telephone us first so we can test the call quality. Please call us on +44 1604824290.

Below is our rate converter (correct as of 20.10.2016) for each job that we offer:
Please note that exchange rates do fluctuate, so to receive a definite figure please use: http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter and compare your currency with the UK currency rate below.

Tarot / Psychic Operators

UK = £0.16 - £0.21 per minute
USA = $0.21-$0.28 per minute (USD Currency)
CANADA = $0.27 - $0.35 per minute (CAD Currency)
AUSTRALIA = $0.27 - $0.35 per minute (AUD Currency)

Adult Chat Operators

UK = £0.14 per minute
USA = $0.17 per minute (USD Currency)
CANADA = $0.22 per minute (CAD Currency)
AUSTRALIA = $0.22 per minute (AUD Currency)

Other Companies pay higher rates, why don't you?
Our business model follows a simple strategy. We offer our services to our customers at a very low rate per minute. This is the reason why we are so busy, because customers love the fact that we are affordable. As we are not charging high amounts we cannot pay top prices to our operators, although we absolutely would love to. In any case it doesn't matter what rate you are being paid per minute, if you do not have any calls or enough calls, you will not enough money. Our operators are averaging at a wait time of 1-2 minutes between each call. So although our rates are slightly lower, your call volumes with be amazingly higher!

I'm worried about working for an International company, will you pay me?
LiveLines UK has been in operation since 2001. We are a registered company within the UK and we are regulated by the governing body for premium rate services within the UK. Without our hard working operators, our calls would not be answered, so we ensure that we pay everyone correctly and on time.

Where can I view my call stats & revenue statement?
Your call stats and log on hours are automatically updated in real time. Your revenue statement is uploaded every 2 weeks on a Wednesday. You can view your statement by visiting: http://login.livelinesuk.co.uk/
If you do not remember your login details, please email lauren@livelinesuk.com with your full name.

Will my accent affect my calls?
Absolutely not! We have callers ringing our services from all over the world  and you will probably find that you are speaking to callers from your own country. As long as you are professional, calming and friendly then your accent will not affect your call times. All of our services are targeted to English speaking countries, so your English must be excellent.

Tarot & Psychic Jobs within the UK - what to look for?

Do you have a spiritual ability? Do you like helping people and offering them moral support? If so, you may be interested in becoming a Tarot, Psychic, Medium or Angel card reader for LiveLines UK. We are a friendly team of readers from all over the UK that read for people from all over the world, specifically the UK, USA, Canada and Australia. 

Tarot & Psychic Jobs within the UK, working from home can be scarce to find. You definitely need the following when applying for any reading job, even if you go into a call center to take calls. 

1. Ethical Company

The company you chose must be ethically minded. They must have certain regulations in place that protect both the caller and you, the reader. They must also be registered with Phone Pay Plus and have a good standing record within the industry. 

2. Enough Psychic & Tarot calls

Without calls, even if you are paid £1 per minute, you would not earn any money! This revenue making stream only works if you have enough calls to answer. With that said our operators are waiting 2-3 minutes between calls and this can reduce during very busy periods. 

3. Telephone Training 

All readers should be trained before they start taking calls and I am not referring to spiritual training but training on regulations and how the service works. Without knowing the basics, how can you take good calls! 

4. Payments on time

When you have worked your socks off, you want to know that payment will be made correctly and on time. LiveLines UK pays their readers every 2 weeks on a Friday either via BACS or Cheque. 

5. On-Line presence 

As with everything in this modern era, an on-line presence is essential. All of our readers have their own on-line profile (you do not need to send a photo) and the ability to let their callers write reviews. This is quite essential as an on-line profile really does generate lots of calls and repeat custom. 

Tarot and Psychic Jobs within the UK can be really rewarding. You will be assisting people from all over the world on so many varied issues. Our main aim with every single caller is to make them feel better, not to sugar coat but to provide them with support and guidance that may just help them in their time of need. 

If you are interested in this fantastic opportunity to earn whilst helping people, please apply here using our handy on line application form; Psychic & Tarot Jobs - LiveLines UK or alternatively you can call our office team on 01604824290 (Monday - Friday 9am-5pm)

Before applying for our Tarot and Psychic readings jobs, you will need to have a spiritual ability. For example you may know how to read the tarot or angel cards. You may have a psychic or intuitive ability or you may even have medium skills. What ever skills you have whether professional or amateur, as long as they are genuine and your desire to help people is consistent, then we want to hear from you! 

Difficult Tarot and Psychic Callers

Any Tarot and Psychic reader working from home will tell you about their fair share of difficult callers and unfortunately these type of callers come with the job. However as a new phone reader they can be quite off putting and you begin to question your spiritual abilities which can really lower your confidence. I am here to tell you not to let difficult callers affect your spiritual energy. We attract all sorts of callers, most are absolutely lovely and it really is a pleasure to read for them however a small percentage can be really difficult and it is always best to know in advance how to deal with them.

Here are my 5 different types of difficult tarot and psychic callers:

The Angry Caller: It doesn't matter what you say or how you say it, the caller responds in an angry way, sometimes they even start the call in an angry manner and they are just basically mad at the world. You will not a give a successful reading with this type of caller so it is best to perhaps listen to their gripes until they are worn out or if it is zapping your energy you can terminate the call. Angry callers are very rarely angry at you, it’s normally because they are facing huge issues within their life that they cannot cope with. However as readers we deserve to be treated with respect and should expect a calm and non aggressive caller on the end of the phone.

The Testing Caller: These types of callers will not even tell you their name and are really there just to test you. Many people do not realize that we cannot guess lottery numbers, their full name etc.. We are given a gift which most people possess but do not tune into. Our gift is of future, past visions and what our spirit guides want to tell us. We can pick up on accurate information but only what the universe wants us to know. We are just a vessel for spiritual messages and insight. Testing callers can be quite hard to deal with however if you explain to them the above they should be able to realize that we are not guessing machines!

Depressed Callers: I speak to many wonderful callers who may be suffering from depression and no I am not a doctor so I do not diagnose! You can tell that life is really getting to them and they are seeking an outlet with us. With most depressed callers we can give hopeful messages and reassure them of the best and they leave us feeling much more positive than before. However there are a few Depressed callers that can really bring our energy levels crashing down. They almost persecute us because of the way they are feeling and although this is their stress release it is not helpful for us as readers. I always explain with this type of caller that I emphasise with what they are experiencing but I cannot help unless they try to relax themselves because spirit will not give me anything with this amount of negative energy.  

Moaning Callers: These types of callers moan about everything! From the cost of the service to the type of reading they are offered. Sometimes you just cannot please everyone and if I have a caller like this on the phone I politely remind them that we are the cheapest service in the UK and that all readers perform their readings differently and if they would like to choose another reader then they are more than welcome to do so. Moaning callers can really bring your spirit down because you feel that you are not doing your best for them, however 9 times out of 10 your reading offered is perfect it is just not what they were expecting!

Didn't like what they were told: These type of callers are fine with the reading except the part when you tell them what spirit is telling you. For example Amy wants to know if John is returning to her even though he is settled with a new family. I definitely will not lie to the caller and if my spirit guides are showing me clear cut visions of no this is not going to happen then I have to let Amy know. Of course I always tell her in a gentle way and inform her that of course she does have her own free will but ultimately I can only tell her what Spirit is telling me. This obviously then makes Amy unhappy because she wants to hear that wedding bells will be ringing very soon and unfortunately I just cannot lie to her. These types of callers can also zap your energy because you have to explain to them and validate why you said what you said, It is the correct and ethical way to let someone know what you can see (as long as it is not too detrimental to their mental well being).

I decided to write this post because I know that Difficult Tarot and Psychic callers are not addressed often enough and although we mostly have amazing callers there are a few that do try to make things quite hard. As long as you are doing your absolute best and treating each caller with respect then as a reader you cannot do any wrong. As spiritual messengers we are only there to tell people what we receive, we do not make things up and we definitely cannot lie and I think that as long as we stick to those 3 basic principles then we are on the road to pleasing as many callers as we can.

If you are interested in putting your spiritual abilities to good use, why not become a reader with our fantastic team? Apply here! 

Psychic and Tarot readings: No Connection Made

If you've ever experienced that heart thundering moment of absolutely no connection within a psychic / tarot reading then you know exactly how it feels to give that awful statement of, "sorry I am not making a connection with you."

This is the pivotal moment when you double question your skills and wonder if you've really got what it takes to do these wonderful readings. Let me inform you now that if any reader tells you that they always make a connection with every caller, then they are simply not telling you the truth. No one human being can translate with every customer / caller that is sent in their direction, it is impossible.

So this little post is to inform all of our amazing psychic, medium and tarot readers not to give themselves a hard time if they get one of those "blank moments." It is impossible to escape and you wouldn't be human if you made a firm connection with every single caller.

 Below are my top 5 reasons why we sometimes cannot make a connection:

Bad energy: If the customer is anxious, upset, angry or agitated then this can affect their vibrational energy which in turn can make it quite hard for you to read for them. Sometimes it can be difficult for a customer to minimize their frustrations with the world. To help with this you can ask them to spend a minute or two to really focus on the issue at hand and perhaps some deep breathing may help also to calm their emotionally energy.

Customer in a hurry: Nothing is worse than giving a reading to a customer in a hurry. It really is off putting and although the customer doesn't realize it, it is probably placing an energy block within the reading that is making it hard for you to pick up on his/her issues. If I receive a customer like this I like to explain that good and accurate readings need time and positive energy and of course I do this in a polite and courteous manner.

Reader Focus: If you've had a bad day, the kids were late for school, the council tax is late being paid or you've just had an argument with your better half then you know that your spiritual alignment will be slightly off. Stress can really interrupt our reading and connection abilities and sometimes the best thing to do is not log on, relax for an hour (even meditate) and then go back on line fresh as a daisy. Stressed readers do not make good connections.

Emotionally Cold Customers: Some customers do like to test us, they call me and say, "Hi I would like a reading please." I ask for their name and their response is, "You should know that." Unfortunately I am not God and thus I cannot just tell him/her their name. Being Psychic is about seeing and feeling future and past events. Being a Medium is about connecting to spirit and reading the tarot cards is receiving guidance from the universe through the cards. None of these equate to guessing people's name, the lottery numbers or what they have just had to eat!

Complex Customer Issues: Sometimes a caller can have a really difficult and complex situation that is hard to get to grips with. Within the reading the customer is stating around 10 different names and adding them into the equation and darting from story to story. Sometimes with this type of complex reading you energy is just being used up trying to grasp what the issue actually is. Sometimes the best way to deal with this situation is to just offer psychic advice instead of a full reading.

There are of course other reasons why we cannot make a connection, sometimes we just cannot and there is no further explanation as to why. However my main point is that even if you do get two or three of these types of calls, do not let it affect your confidence within your readings. Politely inform the customer as soon as you can that you cannot make a connection. This way you are being ethical to the caller and to yourself. With this said it is never too late to keep your spiritual abilities finely tuned and if you feel that you are telling lots of customers that there are no connections being made then you should really practice on family and friends before you do this type of work in a professional sense.

If you do have a genuine spiritual ability and would like to join our team of readers, please apply here and we will contact you to arrange a telephone training session. 

Top 10 qualities of a Psychic Tarot reader

 Performing a reading for someone is like giving them a mini therapy session and no I'm not suggesting that we are all counsellors! However in order to successfully give psychic and tarot readings all readers require that inept set of qualities that compliment their readings. Here are my proposed top 10:

1) A non-judgemental attitude: Psychic & Tarot readers have to be non-judgemental within their readings. To judge someone's issues which are being told to you in confidence would be completely unethical and although we all naturally judge this must not be shown within any reading. 

2) Compassion: All psychic and tarot readers must have compassion. When a customer is telling you heartfelt feelings you must understand and offer compassion to their situation. If you act cold towards the caller then the caller will end the call.

3) Patience: Some callers cannot explain how they are feeling or even explain their problem or issue clearly. As a reader you need patience and allow the caller to have the space they require in order to open up to you. 

4) Friendliness: Without sounding obvious callers want to connect to a friendly and happy reader. They do not want a reading from someone who got out of the wrong side of the bed! All readers must sound happy and alert whilst conducting readings. 

5) Calmness: If you speak ten to the dozen then you need to slow this down and allow your calming side to shine through. Callers want calming reassurance with their readings.

7) Politeness: Callers are paying customers and they deserve respect at all times. Readers with attitudes do not get repeat callers or good hold times!

8) A Focused Mentality: If you are conducting a reading but you are thinking about your gas bill then this will ultimately decrease you focus & ability to read accurately and will hugely disappoint the caller!

9) A stable Personality: If you've just split up with your boyfriend then do not log on. Customers are normally experiencing hardship themselves and they need you to be mentally stable as you read for them.

10) Good Communication skills: It's great that you receive messages from spirit but now you need to convey them to your callers in a clear, sensible and logical manner. Good communication skills are essential for smooth and in-depth readings. 

Of course at any one moment you can strive to improve the above skills as no one is perfect. However practice, evolving and refining your skill sets will really aid you with any type of readings you perform. So even if you are already conducting readings it is always good to check on your method of reading and ensure that all of the above skills are taken into consideration.
