Certified Mobile Notary Service

Has anyone heard of this company or had any experience with them? I think they might be a scam to get us to pay $449 to become part of their network to receive signings.

No I have never heard of them. Frankly, I do not like the way their website is designed - it seems very haphazard. Also, they registered their domain in Feb 2020. Yea, I definitely question the legitimacy of this company.

Thanks, Alvin. Good to know about their website. I found them on one of the job websites. Seems a bit suspicious!

As a new LSA I wanted to check out all of my possible avenues for business. I came across Certified Mobile Notary Service and tried to look into them as I hadn’t really heard of them through the notary forums, blogs, chats, etc… I found this thread and decided I needed to look further. @alvin is correct, their website has only been registered since Feb, 2020. furthermore, their business has only been registered in Oklahoma since July, 2020. I can’t pull any further information about them without paying Oklahoma for the detailed corporate records on their L.L.P. I found by accident they are associated with a markhammobilenotaryservice dot com address that is also a 2020 registered domain. So I started a chat from their website to see if they could provide me with any referral data or third party resources. Any business worth while should be able to offer at least a couple of points of reference, especially one who touts the results they tout. Below is the copied text from that chat session.

In short, it was obvious I was talking with someone as there was some very human responses, so it isn’t totally robotic. But they ghosted me as soon as I asked for references and third party data. I am not saying they aren’t legitimate, but I can’t prove one way or the other and no one so far has come out and verified they are who they say they are. Is anyone here a member of their services that can vouch for them?

@elhamilton23 Thank you for starting this dialog, I hope we get an answer soon.

I am trying to find out more about your service through the usual notary and business networks and I can’t find any reviews or referral data

do you have any third party referral/reviews I can look at?

I am just asking because $318 is a big upfront investment on my side, I want to make sure I have some industry backed information in front of me before I sign up

Waited over 8 minutes for response

Thank you for your time. I’ll move on.

Same here ,I actually talk to some over the phone and internet,but I’m still about iffy on things. Anymore updates ?I keep seeing them and thought about trying them out.

If you do try them out please share! I don’t want to slam a company if they’re legit, the lady “Kim” was nice on the phone and almost had me sold but my gut told me to wait. I really hope it is legit, because she told me 3-6 signings a day! That would be well worth it!!

I will tell anyone to stay away. I used them when I started LSA in November 2020. The course is terrible, and contacting someone next to impossible. When you do contact someone live, they feel as if their bothered by any question you may have. Long story short, I ended up spending more money taking another mode of learning. Fast forward, I get a call asking if I can complete a title signing for x amount, and informed that when its done, text them and they will venmo me the money. As I’m driving, the number hits me. I complete the signing, contacted them, emailed, sent invoices…I get no response. So no, I’d stay away.

Okay, I just had the most awful experience with Certified Mobile Notary Service. I’ve been doing this for 4 years, wanted to expand, responded to an e-mail I got from this company. After a few go arounds, I called a “Carol” today and she pretty much talked me into filling out the application over the phone - I said, well, I need it in writing what it is you will provide me with - written assurances that I will get such and such… during the conversation she was not able to do that, so I said, well, I think I should wait, and she said, “Oh, I’ve already run your credit card!” I am FURIOUS, I did not say, okay, run me, “sign me up”! The immediately said there will be no money refund, but they’re happy to take me off their membership and directory listing, and happy not to send me the list of mortgage and/or loan companies that was promised. But they’ll be happy to NOT REFUND my money. I am going into legal means to try get it back. AND report them to BBB - I hope they never get a good rating…

this is who’s telling me no refund, but is still taking me off their membership and/or directory listing:

What say you, Kimberly Smith, about someone changing their mind BEFORE they knew you had even run the charge!!??

If you put it on your credit card, call and dispute the charge.

4 Likes

First off, why did you give your credit card number before you had all questions answered to your satisfaction?

I agree with @elhamilton23 - dispute it with your credit card company - since they’re going to remove you and you’ve paid them you’re not getting the services your paid for. You may want to consult an attorney too.

Good luck

I think many of us have given our card out and thought later that we gave it our too soon. I know I have. Just dispute the charge with you credit card company an be done with it. No need to consult an attorney and lose any sleep over it. Take it as a learning experience and move on.

Hi, LindaH - thanks! I also saw you posted in the Timios blog and could not reply, but all of the negative comments about them are so true. I used to like them, but they do that, send out e-“feelers” and you have to take it or leave it w/out much detail. I have been able to increase them from 90 to 110 for over 20 miles. However, recently, I put a 160-page closing in a Fed Ex envelope, reached back in while FE clerk held open, he closed & sealed package, weighed and put to shipping container. Got call from Timios closer saying they only received 28 pages, that it was light and where was rest of closing? I called Fed Ex, they brought up security video showing that the envelope was closed by the clerk with ALL OF THE DOCUMENTS IN THERE… on video. They would not accept that as proof on my end, that something may have happened en-route or the gal who opened package somehow comingled those with others (?) We think that the envelope came open during transit and the FE person simply resealed without being aware of missing contents. We’ll never know. But Timios has taken me off their e-list now. Seriously? Luba Rolbin continued to call me a liar, I had to contact the CEO to get payment.

My recommendation would be to check them out with a fine-toothed comb.

I would not use them UNLESS they could guarantee some sort of results. What they do is simply list you in their directory, which no one really knows about, and they’ve only been in business couple of years, and send you a list of mortgage companies from all around the U.S. (not tailored to your area) which you could put together on your own in about 15 minutes. I called and was filling out an app with them - towards the end I changed my mind, but she said she’d already run my credit card (without asking me, right?) and that if I tried to get my $388 back, she’d turn it over to credit collection. Seriously? They’re that DESPERATE to get people to sign up that they are so MEAN!!! I called my lawyer immediately…

Kim is not a “nice” person. Read my comments below. No wonder they can’t get their business to grow, they are horrible, selfish, mean people. Stay away, glad you followed your instincts.
