Lets rate notaries
Hello Harry, you are talked about on this site as much as the SS, title companies and fees. Why do we not have a Signing Central to rate the notaries? I am tired of all the fee complaining and negativity that is on here so I think it is about time to rate the notary.
Why should companies get all the bad rap, why not share the love and let the notaries see what it fells like to be rated and constantly posted about. I think that other agents in the area deserve to know what type of agents they have in their areas 1 star 5 star? maybe give us as business's who use this site occasionally when our databases are exhausted.
So let the posts begin about this now. Thank you

"I am tired of all the fee complaining and negativity that is on here so I think it is about time to rate the notary."
Tired of all the fee complaining? We are independent business owners with a wide variety of needs. No one fee can fit all. Also, we all know that the fees a lot of services are willing to pay simply aren't enough to pay for our services. Sorry for that reality check... but it's true. This is a PREMIUM service we offer, and we have ever increasing expenses. We are NOT charities. We have families to feed, bills to pay and profit margins we have to maintain in order to remain in business.
The IRS doesn't look kindly on notaries who give their services away and always report business losses.

This is a forum for the benefit of the Notaries Public. We do give eachother feedback on companies we work with and also rate them in signing central. We give excellent ratings and praise for the companies that value our services, work in a professional, organized way and compensate us in a reasonable manner and on a timely basis. Signing agencies are free to rate the individuals of this community by either contracting with them for their services or refraining to do so based on your experience with that individual. We pay dues for the privilege of communicating with eachother.

Lol ummm maybe if you paid your notaries (within 30 days) and MAYBE just Maybe answered their emails (according to the latest posts you dont answer emails) then they wouldnt be on here complaining about your company which by the way isnt even listed in SC. Oh and notaries can be rate on here, if you didnt know.

Toni,
We pay in our policy time. So if you are a >30 payment do not accept the closing if you are fine with the policy of <30 then great yo will be working for us. Please ask all that have complained on here in the past about if they received their payment. All of them will say yes and have worked for us again.
Thank you

"We pay in our policy time."
That's funny... YOU are the customer here. We are not employees. You don't set the policies... WE do.
Do you tell the power company or the bank holding your credit card what *your* payment policies are? Nope... you are the one looking for a service. We are the service providers. We set our prices, you pay them. If we're outside your budget...that's fine... but don't call it whining on our part. Find another service provider.

You missed the head of the nail just a bit. We hold the signing if you say no you do not get to call around and get that signing again this is not like getting a cell phone. We set our policies and if you do not like them then you can gracefully say no thank you and visa versa, we hold no fault to the notary the does not accept the closing. SO the sad thing is you do not want to call yourself an employee then here you are a sub contractor that is hired by the SS.
Lender hire title, title hires SS, SS hires Notary. I believe this is how the chain goes. I am the employee of SS that answers to all hire than me, We have no shame to bow to the title and the lender and take our assignments from them. So if you do not want to be thought of as the employee then start your own Lending company.
Thank you and we do mean no disrespect towards any on here, just bringing light to a on going situation.

Tell that to the IRS...
We are NOT employees. It's a federal law. If you want to pay us like independent contractors without any of the responsibilities of hiring an actual employee... then you also have to play by the independent contractor rules.
Sorry... it's federal law.
If you want to pay us and treat us like employees, then you need to cover our expenses, pay our taxes, worker's comp and other responsibilities of having EMPLOYEES.
Clearly, you don't understand that hiring contractors is NOT AT ALL like hiring employees.

its obvious you havent read the posts in the last week about payments...also there are 200 posts about your company and majority of them are about non payment. Maybe you need to address the notaries you hire and restate your payment policy because obviously many arent fully aware or your communication isnt reaching them.
I could care less though. All I know is the posts of notaries complaining on here speaks for itself.

Re: Lets rate notaries dumb post..you do rate
Oh my no sour grapes here just the truth and Business. Notaries are spoiled if you started in this industry in the early 2000's you were playing in the name your price game show, Here is the news flash 2013 and the times have changed so it is time to get with the day and understand that there is inflation and deflation in all industries, including this one! Everyone that is responding to this has responded to lowballers posts (Whinning) Just say no thank you and move on no need to write a blog about your daily turndowns, Newbies (Everyone has to start somewhere and to learn you might as well take the $65 signing, not our fee but is some), also any post that floats your boat negativity is spread like wildfire. This site seems to have gone down hill and it is sad.
It is understood that you can help others out but to always be so negative on a site that hundreds of business's look at to investigate their potential work partners, to punish ones that have great experiences with companies they like, and to jump on band wagons of ones who like the sound of their own voices ( or the clicking of the computer keys as they are typing. )
Our company feels that it is fair with what we offer in fees and what we do. We are here to answer all and any questions, with that being said any one that feels wronged can call. With that said if you would like to talk about your concerns please call. Thank you

This is not speaking on the behalf of the knowledge and the great notaries that do participate on this site. In Linda's words Sour grapes also participate in posts on here and think that if SS's go out of business it will benefit their own personal needs. Unfortunately SS's are not going anywhere as you do we offer 24 hour service to companies that are busy dealing with other things for more work. I like to stay busy cutting checks for all of our hardworking notaries.
This post pertained to all the negativity that is portrayed on here in the past months.
Great site but sour grapes exist as well.

Feel better, Accurate?
Did you get yourselves all huffed and puffed up in the office cos you got your little feelings hurt when somebody said something icky about you? So you all then decided to gangbang the NSAs on Notary Rotary and really get it all out and show us who's boss? Because, after all, notaries have no business posting anything about you except goo-goo sweetness. After all, we're just "spoiled" notaries who are lucky to have a big brother SS like you to tell us how it really is, huh?
It's bad enough we have to put up with low-grade SSs, but for one to invade our territory whining and complaining about notaries is TOO MUCH. We put up with guys like you all day; can't we get away from you here? Oh, and then you go on to lecture us as to the state of today's economy because, of course, our brains are too little to keep up with such complicated things. Not to mention telling us what fees we should be accepting while pumping yourself up with such platitudes as "we're fair with what we offer in fees and what we do." (Gee, where have we heard that before?) Believe me, your rant was not helpful to anyone (unless *you* feel better), and your self-serving "insight" is not wanted nor of any value.
Go away.
If you want to start your own site where you can rate notaries, go right ahead. But butt out here. You're taking advantage of this board because one of you is a notary and can post here. Once again, this should not be allowed.

Re: Feel better, Accurate?
So, ur, um, do you care to comment on why it takes Accurate Signings 50-90 days to cut a check to a notary? or to several notaries? no one in specific, just in general, because that seems to be Accurate's history of payment, why so many people don't want to work for your service.
Escrow pays you in 5-10 days, correct? So you're just sitting on this money for a quarter before you turn it around. Does that seem equitable and fair?

Re: Feel better, Accurate?
Actually payment between two entities is considered private but your statement is completely false, some title escrows pay in 3-30 days others pay twice a year and then there are the ones that pay monthly, bi weekly and oh the ones that pay by the signing.
So to speak on our policy is fine. We pay 30-45 BUSINESS DAYS, Was that loud enough. Each and every notary that works for us signs a Policy and procedures, this states our payment policy this rounds out our vender package. If you are going to complain then don't sign a contract and then cry no payment. 30-45 business days equals 45-60 Net days, this is not a policy that I get to change it is up to upper management. It has worked for us here in accounting to do this so we process payments two weeks a month and get time to double check the next months payments.
Thank you we feel great. IT seems that you have it all worked out.

Here's the thing... we don't really care...
WHEN you get paid by the other company. It's none of our business. If you're hiring somebody to do a job, you should have the money to pay them in your reserves already. If you are dependent upon payment for a job to pay the notary, then your business isn't properly funded and doesn't have the cash reserves to stay open.
Your agreement to pay the notary is completely separate from your payment from the title/escrow/lenders.
I know that I don't work on contingency. I do a job, I get paid for it. That's it.

Would this "employee" that is posting in the name of this company be willing to work for them and wait 45-60 days for their paycheck? LOL
Checks ARE cut after funding, period. The claim that TC's hold that money and pay out twice a year to each and every SS is so ridiculous, it shows that the poster has no credibility at all. As you pointed out Marian, we don't care when the SS gets paid, it's not our concern. When will slow paying companies get this?

So 45-60 days Net and you cut twice a month so if a notary payment misses the cut off day, they potentially can be WAITING almost 90 days to get paid. Explains why there are a lot of posts complaining about non payment. Your company sounds like a good candidate for feeguarantee program...lol

Re: Feel better, Accurate?
Everyone, no matter what occupation they are in, deserves to be paid in a timely matter for services rendered. Waiting over 30+ days for payment is unacceptable. Most loans fund on the 4th day and the title company sends out checks that week. I am sure the people in the SS do not wait to get paid 30+ days, nor the Realtor for their checks. We are the bottom of the line, and cannot do anything about it. If we do not like it, we do not work for those companies. Problem is, some of always will put up with it. Sad.

I have often been thankful to the community for helping avoid accepting assignments from companies that don't pay. They also help me avoid taking assignments with companies that don't have the capital to be in business - those that can't pay the notary until they are paid by the title company. They also have helped me avoid companies that are so poorly run that they need to refrain from paying notaries for months because they wouldn't have the cash flow to stay in business otherwise. I am thankful for the community comments. Some could be more professional in their presentation, agreed, but we all have room for improvement, I'm sure.

Your assessment & understanding is wrong.
this is a site for notaries - it states as such when you arrive this site. Your comprehension skills need some tweaking.
While reading all your posts, I see that you are in the accounting dept. You are not upper management as you have referred to them. You are merely an employee voicing the party line, deciding to make a few comments in defense of them, or it is part of your job description. So as employee to business owner(s) you have some room for improvement in your own understandings.
Many, many SS's people have come here in the past, trying to lay down the law according to their perceptions of how the world works. Many of those same people are now no longer in business or still struggling to die gracefully, albeit, it is not working. They are in the same position as your company - poised on a precipice. Once a company gets to this stage, of paying later and later, or not at all, it becomes like pushing slime up a hill: impossible. Your company is mired in muck, and a good transfusion will be needed. One thing they can do immediately, is apologize for your behavior as you are merely an employee, then sack you so that you will no longer be an embarrassment to the company as a whole. With one less salary to pay perhaps they can begin the catch-up phase.
But, I doubt it.

Accurate National Signings, you are wasting your time trying to be sensible and rational here.
This crowd thinks their services are on a par with NASA rocket scientists and brain surgeons and think they should be paid accordingly. They cannot grasp the concept that if someone else in their immediate geographical area can do the same job flawlessly signing work for less money that they are somehow hurting the industry rather than being smart and grabbing more market share. Business does work that way most of the time.
The funniest of all is the notion that the party being hired is the one to dictate fees and payment turn times. The world does not work that way folks. Have you ever heard of competitive bidding? Why would any sensible business person pay $150 for something that they can get the same quality goods or services for $100.00? Perhaps that is why so many of the complainers are sitting by quiet phones. They forget signing services read this forum too and likely make note of who they will nto call for service based on the posts read here.
I agree there should be a rating system for signing agents especially for some of the newbies that cannot figure out where to look in a set of loan docs for the monthly PITI, but they proclaim themselves to be professional signing agents in their profiles. Ha! There should be an area to call the slugs just what they are.
I was equally laughing at the person that suggested they were paying a fee to this site to belong here so they could chat with other signing agents. I thought the purpose of this place was to showcase signing agents to consumers, title & escrow companies and signing services.

That's how it works in the real world with independent contractors - they have a fee and a payment policy, you either accept it or you don't.
If you have a plumbing problem, who gets to dictate the amount required to fix it? You want to pay $25 in 60 days, the plumber wants $100 today - what are your chances of getting that person to do the job on your terms?
The sad part is that there are too many new people in this business who are willing to buy into the idea that the client sets the terms of the deal - and your remarks are not helpful, so it's obvious which side of the argument you're taking. Do you actually do signings (and submit yourself to the whims of the hiring party), or are you just here to stir up trouble?

The simple answer is that this is a site intended for professional notaries - not for the companies that take advantage of them. You want to rate notaries? Go start your own web site to do that.
Oh,wait - that's going to cost money. Maybe you can cut the fees you offer to make up for that...
I don't know who you are and don't have the time to check your rating in SC; what i do know after years as a member of this community is that if you have a bad reputation in the notary community, you've earned it.

My .02 worth here is although this job is not rocket science or brain surgery, I don't think you realize how many loans we save at the table because someone (LO) did not do his/her job. Just last night I came across a situation where if I didn't know what I was doing, the loan would have not signed. I was able to make it make sense for them. Not my job, but I do it anyway. It's not UPL, its just showing them the numbers and breaking it down for them. In my county we pay taxes twice a year (like many), but we pay them in arrears. I have caught hundreds of mistakes by lenders and title over escrows. If I didn't know what I was doing, these poor borrowers taxes would not be paid. I'm a stickler on that. These borrowers are never told who is paying taxes, the old escrow acct or the new one. Sometimes I see only 1 installment being paid, but who's paying the other one? They are also never told what happens to any remaining money leftover in escrow accts. Either its returned or applied to payoff. These are the things that an experienced signing agent can detect. I wish I had a nickel for every loan that I saved that should have been done by the LO. I'm sure most of here can relate. There's no way a newbie can do this, its not possible. It takes signing hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of loans to be able to do that. You are paying for experience and expertise. We are the end of the process and one of the most important ones. Either it gets signed or not and everyone loses if it doesn't. An experienced SA can save that loan 99% of the time. Do lenders really want an inexperienced SA? I don't think so. But, they have to be willing to pay for that expertise. It's not just signing and stamping our stamp. Its so much more than that. WE represent THEM. They never meet their LO face to face. WE are the only live person they meet most of the time. I walk in that door with a smile and a handshake. Most of the borrowers go through hell just getting it to the table. The last thing they need is an inexperienced SA who doesn't know diddly squat. I am professional, know what I am doing and I deserve to be paid a fair fee. You don't go to the grocery store and tell them you'll pay them in 30-45 days. Try that at a Dr office. We should be paid for our services immediately when this loan funds, like any other business is. Credit Cards, Mortgages, Car payments, Utility bills etc etc etc are paid within 30 days or it dings your credit. What part of that do SS not understand? It should ding them credit wise if not paid within 30 days.

The bottom line here
This isn't my first rodeo, so it really doesn't surprise me anymore at the arrogance of some SSs and their bottomless disrespect and contempt for notaries.
I know for a fact that there are three NSAs (and maybe more who I don't know about) who posted in this very thread whose income last year was in the six figure range; yet Accurate and FormerEO insist that none of us notaries knows how to run a business, that we know squat about the economy, that we think too much of ourselves, that we're too stupid to figure out what fees we should take and that we should be grateful for any offer and any "wisdom" they so generously share with us about how things really are.
Their bull**** is endless; their ignorance stunning.

No, Let's rate you!
You clearly are at the bottom of the pile, along with all the other SSs who think they can "walk on" and take advantage of notaries, especially those not in CA, not physically able to come knocking on your door. Shame on you. Have the integrity to pay people what you owe them, in a timely manner. Quit hoarding your money and pay out, or get out!
I can count on one hand the SSs I work for, heck, I even was paid a bonus by one who had the wisdom and business acumen to "acknowledge/reward" his 17 best signing agents during 2012. But most of you folks are all about hoarding your fees. This guy has the grace and the class to "share". He has a business model. I can't tell you how many NSAs flocked to ask me who this person was. Folks are hungry for great companies to work for. Unfortunately, Accurate has earned the reputation, all on their own, as being a company no one should work for. YOU DID THAT! Not us! Your business model, not ours. You are reaping the rewards of being dirty rotten scoundrels.
And you come here licking your wounds, wanting us to repent our postings. Get real! Pay your notaries on time! or get out of the business. You can't get away with your slick operation any more. What do you drive, where do you live, how much money are you sitting on, while NSAs nationwide are waiting for you to pay them what they worked so hard to earn and have nothing to show for it.
We're wise to you...as for FORMEREO, you're an idiot, and you are heartless, too. You have no idea of the talent and the dedication of people on this forum...you're a newcomer, you're a downer, you need to find another forum. We need mentors, not saboteurs. You think you know what you're talking about. You have no idea of the tread we've put on our souls, hearts and livelihoods. Excuse me, you so talk out of turn...of course there are a lot of newbies around, they haven't earned their stripes yet, but you clearly are NOT the heart and soul of this forum YET, and you need to revere the savvy NSAs of this forum more before you start calling us out as non-rocket scientists and the like. We are not a dime a dozen. We get calls from the pros who know we'll deliver. We're making the big $$$ and fighting tooth and nail to keep on doing it because we earn it, and we perform, flawlessly, endlessly. I can't believe you can be so disrespectful and glib. You don't have the guts to show us who you are so you can be negative and condescending, fire at will any time you wish. Where is your professionalism and stature? You have none. The Empress wears no clothes, simply! Leave us! Go harass others somewhere else. You add nothing to our board. You are negative, sharply derogatory. We don't need you! If you can think of a way to add value, that is another story, but so far, I've only read negativity from your posts. Is that what your escrow career brought you to, negativity? I'm sorry, you should have done something else with your life. The best people on the planet are on this board and enjoy a great camaraderie among the NSA profession, something you should aspire to.
Maybe you are sitting on your hands, but the rest of us, those who are actively making six figures a year working our asses off, find a lot wrong with your kind of attitude, postings and wish you'd extinguish and let us get on with it! Most schlock Signing Services are stealing from us! right under our noses.
Kick in or kick out. We're in out for the long haul.

Re: No, Let's rate you!
Well said, 101...though the cowardly ones won't understand and get it. Their hubris will prevent that.

Go to the # site and read comments.
It stinks that we cannot add Accurate to SC on NR. It's just wrong and it hurts us by not being able to check on a company. Harry, please change this. NR is forcing us to go off NR and read somewhere else.

How to Commit Professional Suicide....
Steps:
1. Insult those who can make or break you.
2. Do so on a public forum.
3. Lie about who you really are (and get caught).
4. Admit to substandard payment policies.
Feel free to add to the list, ACN, I have already lost interest...

Thanks ANS and FormerEO!
I absolutely love it when SS owners and staff write these kind of posts. If I know who and what kind of mentality I am dealing with, it is most helpful in determining who I work with. Thanks ANS and FormerEO!
This is just another example of WHY I have such a short list of SS I work with. Direct work is what we should all be striving for.

Rebuttal and apology
Hello All I am the owner of this company posting on this.
I wanted to chime in and hope that all do not eat me alive. I cherish all NSA's and all the work that you do, this work could not get done without you.
With that being said, We do have the capital behind us and do pay each and every NSA that works with us (over 14000 successfully cashed checks to date.) We do not offer a free service and nor do you, our payment policy has improved and still has room for improvement, we are not perfect and have things that need corrected as we all do.
In regards to missing payments: We have discovered It has been when NSA's do not receive their checks it is due to a forwards that are in place or have expired or that they did receive the payment and it was not marked off in their books. Has happened to many NSA's that post about us on here. No excuse, we are not perfect and if a payment falls through the cracks we cut a check immediately, just contact us and we will rectify this situation.
I am not a band wagon rider and usually do not read anything on this site, for my in house NSA's are on here and that is how I heard about this posting. From the conversation I had this morning my understanding on this is that it was started to bring light to all the issues. Not worded 100% correct but point was given.
How many have never had an error and started in this business having it all figured out? This is where we all have faults and can be corrected ( Including this company ).
We apologize to the NSA's that feel we do not thank them for their hard work, that we do not care about how they feel and if ever offended by a staff member that is also a fellow NSA. Please accept our apologies and know improvement takes time and time is what we need.
Thank you

Re: Want us to believe you are serious with this apology?
My assessment was not far off: Msg #462094
Although, I think this is the same person with the same grammar and misspellings. If real, then sign your name.

Re: Want us to believe you are serious with this apology?
Same account, same poster, imo.
As you said, no name or contact info as any real owner that wanted to clean up any "misunderstandings" would freely offer on any real apology.
I've already marked them, and all the other listings for the same company in SC, as a DO NOT BOTHER. Never worked for them and will not.
Sounds like they got tiered of having to try to justify a slow-paying company policy.

Slowpayers always make excuses.....same old stuff. Yawn....
I won't work for them if they call. What a wierdo. Should work on getting those past due invoices paid instead of comoing on this site and complaining about a well deserved crappy reputation......if the shoe fits...

ANS has NO credibility here
With all of their loud barking and grandstanding, they have NO credibility here whatsoever. 30 - 45 business days to pay subcontractors actually amounts to 43 - 55 calender days = slowpayer. They have no website - even SOX (sign on the X) the WORST of the worst did have a website. You have a vague notary listing instead of a business listing so as to not be put in Signing Central to get rated. And their current profile is hidden, plus they're a relatively new company. For everyone's further reading:
