Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
Because of its opportunity to see and hear the witnesses, the determination of the Supreme Court as to the credibility of the witnesses who testified at the hearing is entitled to great deference on appeal ( see, Federal Natl. Mtge. Assn. v. Roth, 240 A.D.2d 466; Citibank v. Baronat, 238 A.D.2d 369; Citibank v. Freund, 238 A.D.2d 299). Its determination that the plaintiff properly served the summons and complaint upon the appellants is supported by the record ( see, CPLR 308).
The appellants' remaining contentions are without merit.
