Vantaggi
The few and far in between assignments.
Svantaggi
Staff is very nice when they ask for notarial services. Once assignment is accepted, the staff has a holier than thou, condescending attitude - especially accounting.
Payment is issued 45 to 60 days after a signing has been completed. Once they receive payment, it takes a few days to process and mail the notaries' checks.
Signing Stream pays ~ $30 to $55 to notaries while they charge their clients more than $100.
Signing Stream places TONS of restrictions and rules that specify penalties will be applied and they look for anything in which they can "contractually" nickel and dime the notary - such as $5 penalty for status update, $10 penalty for fax back deduction, $25 notary error etc.
Here is a verbatim quote off an assignment:
*Signing errors and omissions will result in fee deductions of at least $25. Your fee is for a full loan signing with a fax or scan/email copy of ALL docs prior to shipping. Failure to fax or scan/email us docs prior to shipping will result in a $10 fee deduction.
*Partial signings (less than 40 pages) will result in an adjustment of your notary fee after your assignment is completed if you received a full fee in error.
