New SS Policy - This beats all.

>>>Email or fax docs must be printed on legal sized white copy paper.
(Notebook, rice paper, construction paper, or any other forms of paper
WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.) Failure to comply will result in a nonpayment<<<

Does this really need to be said? What kind of MoMos are out there pretending to be NSAs?

The kind of new notaries churned out by you know who

Those notaries have not been guided through the realities of requirements and the cost of this business, some see it as way to make a quick buck on the side as under-the-table money, and they're putting as little effort as possible in the assignment. And they undercut fees bigtime because they believe the "average signing fee" they were told during their training course is the typical fee. I swear the training courses are really meant to benefit the title companies by churning out as many low-fee notaries as possible. They sure aren't meant to benefit the notary members they're supposedly representing!

Does it need to be said? I was mailed two stickers and told to put them on my cross-country ski machine, near a hold where a cotter pin goes. The sticker said something to the point of "Do not put your fingers in the hole and extend the vertical pole as injury may result." I think people are just too scared thanks to the coffee lawsuit, that if they don't spell everything out they will be held liable for someone's injury.

STUPID SHOULD HURT, and the stupid person should be liable for their own injury!

I totally agree with you Barbara, however

that kind of common sense, just ain't that commonanymore! Should be, we'd have a lot fewer "momo's" that way This being said, I am the Mom of a son who, when he was younger, stuck a 9 volt battery to his braces just cause his brother dared him! Dang , those little rubber bands fry up good.

I've been trying to figure out how to get that dang roll of Charmin to run through the printer, what a savings that will be!

Sue, Bounty Select-a-Size works better than Charmin, since you can print both letter and legal docs at the same time, and you don't have to tape two sheets together to get the width you need.

You guys are cracking me up!

What would Cheryl Crow have to say about the paper we use? I'm sorry Cheryl, but Countrywide couldn't possibly fit their closing instructions on one square....although, I'd love to see them try.

One Square for Closing Instructions?

Becca, don't tempt them, they could do it if the print were in a font that was approximately 0.0004 point! You would need stretchable paper (don't get that stuff wet!) and a very powerful microscope to read it but they could do it

Some years back a SS reported here about a "NSA".....

printing the dox a bright yellow paper.
I also know of dox that have been signed in red, green and purple.
Haven't heard about a glitter pen yet, but you never know.

Policy work wonders

I would have to pay an extra trip the NSA made from the borrower's home to the store to get blue pens b/c she has always signed in black pen only and the borrower has none.

I know for a fact you can use metalic ink pens...

as our pen order at the last law firm I worked at was wrong, and they delivered several boxes of purple metalic pens. We had completely run out of the cheapo bics the attorney ordered, and he was too cheap to go to the store and buy more pens. It was going to take another couple days to get the order corrected, so we used purple metallic pens for all our closings for 5 days or so.

Re: I know for a fact you can use metalic ink pens...

I signed the second half of one yesterday and the other notary used blue metalic. Don't know what he was thinking. Along with it standing out like a sore thumb it also smeared.

He was nice enough to send Jurat's and Ack's extra which I saw as very thoughtful. They were for his state not mine (wording) but that isn't the point.

This is probably about the Loan Officer who called me wanting to be an NSA on the side. She supposedly had 20 years LO experience and asked me, "I can use my ink jet printer can't I?" Excuuuuuse me??? As a LO would YOU accept loan docs printed on an ink jet??? She replied, "Oh, I didn't know I had to print the loan docs."
