A few months ago, I did an e-sign where the lender omitted the spouses name on several e-docs. When I called from the signing, my instructions were to proceed as is and that they would make the corrections themselves later. I finished the closing and informed the borrower that the lender would make the needed corrections. As I was leaving, the title company called back and said the lender decided they needed to correct the docs and have the e-sign redone. So later that day I had to drive 30 minutes back to the borrower to e-sign the same docs. What if I'd been lazy? What if I'd thought, "what's the point in driving all the way back just to redo the same docs?" I could have just sat in my office, logged on, and clicked through all the docs to re-sign them electronically. Who'd have known? The borrower already saw all their docs, already e-signed once, and were told the corrections would be made. Really, what proof is there that this was or wasn't done in front of the borrower? There's none.
Reason number 41 why e-signs are flawed.
