I am going to stop buying E& OE from NNA.  
Already stopped using NNA for certification or bonds or Background Checks. I have posted alternatives for background checks in my other post by crimcheck that is accepted by fidelity.

Companies that still insist on it, I Lobby all the way upto CEO and refuse their business.  
Fidelity Insurance now accept crim check & I am a fidelity approved vendor

SoNotaries. Standup for your future work & at same time dont buckle for companies pressure.

We need to  
PUT NNA OUT OF BUSINESS & RELEVANCE.  
If enough notaries write back saying that they are boycotting the NNA these signing agents and title will wisen up and stop making such demands.

@Matt

Please put alternatives to NNA certifications, bonding , E&OE .

I have been With NNA since 2003. I did get some business from them back then, but not in the past say 13 years. I renewed membership because it was easier since everyone accepted them, Several times over the past years I have asked for some advise with some state issues and about their ads to add to our income, They were of NO HELP and wanted and did blow me off. I am sorry I am paid up on my dues, but will not renew, I am willing and have paid for 3 other background check just so I do not have to use them. I find their supplies are expensive and never would purchase from them.

Their certification to me is a JOKE, To be able to take an exam as many times and as often as you need to in order to pass, you have to at some point pass even by accident. I don’t know if who ever came up with some of the answers has any experience in this business because I would be sitting with closing docs which shows their answers are incorrect. Guess they want the book answers not real answer,

A non-profit company means the company can’t make profits. It does not mean the officers can’t make a great income. The more money they make the more they can justify their incomes. Just my thoughts.

```
                    Non Profit Means. DON'T MAKE PROFIT !! 

```

Staff are mostly volunteers / work part time pro-bono and not rely in lavish salaries. Where did you get the notion that Non Profit staff must be lavish. This is exactly why owning and running a charity is good business, become of what some people like you think. When a giver gives money, they never read the financials and they pay the non profit money to benefit the cause, not the workers. American Redcross 6 & 7 figure salaries deny justice to the donors who will be appalled if they audit this charity. Non Profit is not a Capitalistic venture.

the nna is not a non-profit. it is a private for profit company.
