For many, many years now I have been a customer of Washington Mutual Bank presently JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. with 8 different accounts there. When I asked the Branch Notary Public to notarize a Government document for me, she refused to me to render that service because of what she claimed was a JPMorgan Chase Bank policy.....I was obligated to go to Wells Fargo Bank, where I have an account to ask for this service. The Notary Public there gladly rendered that service......

There no policy that refuses notary service.

It sounds as though there might have been some miscommunication.  There is no policy that states Chase is not allowed to provide notary service.  Certain clients even receive that service for free.  There are limitations to what kinds of documents we can notarize, or even witness.  I don't know what sort of document you needed notarized but this is not a Rip Off.  It is possible there wasn't a Notary Public available in that branch.  Not all branch employees are notaries.  So if someone wasn't in that day or they just don't have one on staff, they can't provide such services.


Good luck in the future.

   If I were you, I'd send a complaint to the Secretary of State's office.   A notary public is commissioned to perform their services for the public, not just their employer.  California Government Code 8205 (a)(4) would seem to indicate that a notary must perform their duty "when requested".   I think the Secretary of State would take a dim view of this practice.
