i’ll say again there is no insulting - there is just business. I get refi offers low balled all the time, I don’t do one for less than $100. It goes up depending on drive time and excessive mileage. If it’s over 150 pages I request a higher print fee. I don’t feel I am missing out on anything that pays less than $90. I only take $90 if it’s within ten miles. Don’t be thin skinned. ---

My time is valuable and if It’s not over 100 and if it’s over 200 pages I request 175. I figure if some body wants to print 200 pages plus the 200 for the customer then they must be board and do not need to make a profit. ---

I used to work for them a long time ago and their packages were very large, x 2, with 20 or more notarizations and faxbacks. They paid $120. or more depending on the size of the package. i.e. a piggyback was $185-200. Now that there is less work and just as many new notaries coming on line, they can pay much less. If their low fees were not accepted they would not still be offering them. They have many clients and still have some originating refis and purchase loans–just not near as much as in the previous refi boom. I don’t do any work for them anymore as it just doesn’t pencil out for me. ---

I am inundated with their offers every day. I counter-offer those which interest me and have yet to have one accepted. That must mean that SOMEONE took their initial offer. ---

And please stop using the term insulting - it’s not personal to them it’s business. Fees can be unacceptable but they aren’t “insulting”. ---

Are you suggesting I’m a signing service “troll”? I’m sure you’re not that ignorant. ---

Yea, Its horrible. I counter offer but someone takes them for the 40- 50 buck fee. I don’t even leave the house for that. ---

Just wondering how their numbers are today compared to 1 year ago? 🤔 _Appreciate you & your input._💫💗 🦢 ---

I’m with you on that. I do the same. It is insulting to see those offers from Mortgage Connect on their Refi with full scan backs for $50 dollar only. It is because of those notaries that are taking those orders that this business is going to sh… ---

lmao cloud signings no longer sends me orders and I’m not sad about it. I told them about themselves …I guess they didn’t agree 🤣 ---

I haven’t done a MC order under $100 in ages. Last week I did five. It’s always worth countering in my opinion. They are also sending out confirmations that the signer is receiving an electronic copy so only one print is required. ---

Yes, and I noticed that they had to make a statement that because of the reduced printing requirement, we should be more amendable to their offers, as stated, rather than countering higher. Yeah, right! ---

It doesn’t change my fees request, but it does prevent my asking for a bump on fees for printing. ---
