United States Notary Association

Has anyone heard of USNA? I keep getting emails requests for signings. I have never heard of them, so I was wondering if anybody has worked with them or familiar. Thanks

@eliteloansigningagent Excellent question! :partying_face: By any chance did you find the immediately available information found within the Notary Cafe database on this topic?

This information is a GOLDMINE!

Most members express that they find it difficult/NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE to locate the Search Function in order to access the wealth of information available within the database.

To be helpful, I’ve inserted an image for you & others [see below] to help members locate it to unlock the wisdom & knowledge of other members on the forums.

I’ve performed a cursory Search on your behalf and the results show t2 separate threads (in addition to yours) BOTH FROM just a few weeks ago about this particular business entity. There is a plethora of data immediately available on the threads within Notary Cafe. :sparkles::tulip:

Accessing the database to locate information about potential clients has saved many of us an inordinate amount of time ā€˜chasing’ payments for Services professionally provided to potential non-payers . . . :crown:

I have been getting email about both Quick Signings and USNA. Because there is a fee to sign up on USNA, I am reluctant to use Quick Signings. I am signed up with enough places (for free) that I am not comfortable with a place that wants to take my notary income. I don’t know if they are legit because I haven’t forked over the $45/year fee that USNA wants, which is necessary to be part of Quick Signings.

I received an email from Quick Signings on Monday and was wondering the same thing. I don’t really want to pay someone for them to use my services. I signed up with companies when I first became a signing agent and hardly any of them called/texted/or emailed me.

same question. I’m getting emails to join Quick Signings. They say you must be a member of United State Notary Association, and it brings me here to Notary Cafe. I sent them a question.

Be sure to review this thread with insightful information on this topic:

After reading your response and peeking at United States Notary Association (USNA)'s website I have determined the 30 day refund does not really exist as you will have to pay to return items to them in order to receive refund. In reading the questions I think people are asking has anyone received signings and been paid through USNA’s Quick Signings. I wanted to see a listing of notaries on Quick Signings to see if there were any in my area thus giving me a strategic advantage.

@cNsa5, are you aware of anyone who is a member of this association?

@d_avantwhite There is no one that I’m aware of who is a member of this business entity/organization.

======

There are indications that this business entity launched in 2017; however, there is no one who purportedly has working with them/received Signing Orders [SOs]/been paid by them.

In my research, it would simply be another ā€œloss leaderā€ ploy to separate Professional Signing Agents [PSAs] from their hard-earned funds.

Of course, I always recommend that EACH business owner perform their own due diligence when making a determination of this type.

Here are a few other threads that you will find insightful as well:

I’m a new notary, and I also received an email to sign up from this company. Glad to know in advance the consensus from the forum. Thank you!

What a great idea to tie your signing service to a non-profit.

It’s $45.00 a year or $100 for 4 years to join this association and then membership to Quick Signings is free. I have not had great experiences with website that charge notaries to join. I probably won’t join.

What you mean return items? Are you referring to notary journals, stamps etc… ?

Don’t do it! I was curious and wanted to see what would happen, so I joined and it’s been nothing but BS since. ā€œAmanda Smithā€ is a fake person, I believe. After joining and paying $100, I was sent an email saying I now had access to Quick Closings. When I went to log into QC, it says you have to log into your USNA account first. So I tried to log into USNA, and lo and behold, my password had been changed. Shortly after this, I received an email from ā€œUSNA Ordersā€ asking if I was available for a signing the next day (a Sunday) with two signers and an attorney for $130. I said no. Then I received an email saying they had classes available for continuing education, but no classes appear under the classes tab on the website. At this point, I disputed the $100 charge with my bank and initiated an investigation. I also emailed USNA and told them to refund any monies charged and cancel my account. I haven’t heard another word since. Thankfully my bank refunded my money.

It would be great if there was a way to get this site shut down.
