Beware of this company's negligent practices
Extremely disappointed with Notarize.ca (owned by Downtown Notary) and their notaries. The notary on the platform instructed us in writing to mail original documents via Canada Post while explicitly warning against using the 'Signature on Receipt' option in bold letters. As a result, our original signed Wills were permanently lost in transit. We've spent countless hours contacting financial and government agencies to place a potential fraud alert on our accounts. We've reported this to various regulatory agencies and filed a complaint with the Law Society. Meanwhile, not only are we at increased risk for fraud, our wills will have to be redone at an added expense. They have refused to refund our money. Steer clear!
ETA - Notarize.ca has responded to our review. This company continues to push the blame onto Canada Post. It was their negligent mailing instructions that led to the loss of our personal information. They claim that they've reviewed and changed their practices - great, but what about us??They have provided a partial refund which is nowhere near enough to make up for the harm caused or to cover the hundreds of dollars to draft new wills. Continue to STEER CLEAR!

Hello Maria,
We're sorry to hear about the loss of your documents in transit, and we understand how serious this is.
For clarity on a few points: Canada Post lost the package, and we opened an investigation with them directly; they were unable to recover the documents. We have refunded the service fees associated with the Wills execution. The fees for the completed notary services were not included in that refund.
We've since updated our shipping protocol for original estate documents to require signature on delivery.
We wish you the best in getting your wills redone.

Hello, Robert, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Under O Reg 431/20, we're required to confirm the deponent's location before proceeding with remote commissioning, and we were unable to complete the appointment without that information.

We sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience you experienced. Waiting two hours for your appointment, only to have the notary not arrive and then receive no response or follow-up from customer support, is understandably very disappointing and not the level of service we strive to provide.
We take this feedback seriously and regret that we let you down. Your time is valuable, and you deserved timely communication and reliable service.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with the professional and dependable service you should have received.

Great service
The notary (Timothy) was very helpful, patient and efficient. We were done after 15 mins. Actually the whole experience from taking the appointment until receiving the notarized document was extremely smooth.

Spelling error
The service is convenient and quick. In our case however, the documents came with our Province of residence miss spelled forcing us to get them reissued. Luckily, this was discovered before we submitted them to the court.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you found the service convenient and quick. However, we’re very sorry to learn about the spelling error on your province of residence and the inconvenience this caused in needing the documents reissued. We understand how important accuracy is, especially for court submissions, and we appreciate that you were able to identify the issue before filing.
Unprepared
I believe a notary should understand and explain what is needed in every situation. One form needed to be signed in person not digitally, so it was rejected. I also didn't have everything else required to register the car with Service Ontario. Notarize.ca should inform their customers so they are perfectly prepared if they actually are educated in law practices.

It was so easy and I didn't have to leave my home.
I had been trying to get a document notarized from a different company, and we went back and forth about 10 emails. It was a different experience all together with notarize.ca. It was all done in one shot. They answered all my questions, and I would highly recommend using them!
