I had a very unpleasant experience on March 27th around 12:30 PM while trying to get a document notarized. My spouse and I came in together for notary service. From the moment we walked in, the employee was sitting with her hands under her chin and had an attitude before we even started speaking.
When she asked what type of document it was, I answered that it was court papers since I was standing there with my spouse. She said she needed to hear it directly from him, which was fine, but her tone was very rude and nasty. I said I did not know I wasn’t allowed to speak and that she could have just asked him directly, but instead she said she would not provide the notary service at all, so we had to leave without getting our documents notarized.
The whole situation was unnecessary and honestly a little embarrassing. This is a paid service, not a favor, and attitude matters when you work with the public. I did not realize a service could be refused simply because someone politely responded or disagreed with how they were spoken to. Very unprofessional experience.

Tip. Be open later at least one day a week so everyone doesn’t have to take a whole day off work in order to go to the dmv so yinz can steal our money with a smile. Oh after making us wait for a long time. Then steal our $

Not the worst experience ever but has steadily gone downhill over the years. The agents are so miserable. So slow.
My sister and I visited the Shillington DMV yesterday. DMV agent Cathy was wonderful. She listened carefully, and explained the entire process to us as she worked. She was quick and efficient, which we appreciated. If you have the opportunity when you visit, ask for Cathy!
