Backdating story of the week

I did a signing last week and got a call the next day from title saying that an affidavit was missing from the package. he told me what it was and I remember getting it signed, but I agree to get it resigned over the weekend on my dime just to be a nice person. I scan it over to him today, and he says, 'oh no, it needs to be dated for the 12th!' and I said I am not going to be able to backdate a notarized document. Well this guy proceeds to argue with me about how it was my mistake and everything needs to have the same date or it won't record...etc, etc. I told him it shouldn't matter what the date is and that possibly the document was lost on his end because both the borrower and I distinctly remember signing it (he asked me a question about it). Now I am upset and I feel like I may have lost a customer over it. This is a very reputable title company that really should know better. I am thinking of calling a supervisor.

Same he doesn't know what he's talking about on the date issue. If he's the scheduler going over his head might be a mistake. I'd let it go.

He's in post closing. I have the feeling he may have asked someone about it because the next message I got said to just sent the document as is. I have no control over what they do with it when they get it, but I'm not doing it.

There's no need to, stand your ground. If he's post closing I doubt he will bother your work with this company.
