Question by April P | Posted in Insurance
I am looking into becoming a claims adjuster, I am almost 21 with a span of speeding tickets under my belt. Could this exempt me from getting a job as a adjuster because I know alot of companies wish you to have a good driving record
Answer: The only way the speeding tickets might sorrowful you is if you were applying for a "field adjuster" job where you would be driving a company owned channel.
Otherwise, if you apply for a "desk adjuster" where you drive your own vehicle to work, you will be great. |

Is Being A Claims Adjuster Any Better Than Being An Insurance Agent? |
Question by yellowhummin217 | Posted in Insurance
I took a job as an strength and life insurance agent a few months ago, and I quit after a few weeks because I absolutely hated it. I didn't like doing indifferent calls and I felt like the company was training me to be a liar.
I'm wondering if being a claims means for an auto insurance company is any better? I have a four-year degree, but I don't have a license for auto insurance or anything. For those who don't hankering to be an insurance agent, is being a claims adjuster more of the same? Is it hard?
Answer: The serve all depends on who you talk to. Agents always say they would never be an adjuster and adjusters say they would never be an agent.
I've been an adjuster for 20+ years. I have never been an surrogate but have good friends that are. There are pros and cons for both sides. A successful agent has much more earning capacity than an adjuster does. However, on the other hand the adjuster gets a consistent paycheck and good benefits.
There is a lot of gross revenue in both jobs. Most 1st year agents get out because they can't make enough money. Many newer adjusters bail out when they see the workload and how many up in arms people they have to deal with.
To answer your final question, yes being an adjuster is hard. There are no easy jobs in the insurance proprietorship unless you are the CEO or on the board of directors, those old dudes have easy jobs.
Good Luck |

What Advancement Opportunities Are There In Insurance Field For Claims Adjusters? |
Question by go away | Posted in Insurance
Intellectual about doing this after graduation. I'm currently working on an undergrad in Agri-business but I'm also inasmuch as an MBA. A job as a claims adjuster seems desirable and obtainable at the moment, however I'm unaware or the advancement opportunities as well as income potential. I'd like to eventually make a six figure income as well.
Answer: Adjusters reap a good living. You will be able to support your family.
But adjusters don't make 6 figures.
Most professions don't take home 6 figures.
I've known several MBA's over the years. (and yes, some work as adjusters). The one possession they seem to have in common, is they over estimate what an MBA is going to get them. In short, they think too highly of themselves. An MBA is good- capacious for you for getting it. If an employer can't decide between you and another candidate...the MBA can break the tie. Just be well-organized and don't get stuck on the idea that you're going to get 6 figures just because you have it.

I Just Started A New Job As A Claim Adjuster, I Have Prior Exp, But Now Working For A Different Company.? |
Question by kitty | Posted in Insurance
I was told I would get 6 to 10 weeks of training on their computer system as it is all contrary for each company.
On day 3 they transfered 100 claims into my que as they belonged to a young man that was just recently fired.
Most of his claims are a tousle and some are even in violation with the Dept of Insurance, (DOI).
I have not been able to check the claims totally as I do not know how to get into the claim fully in their system, I have not been trained.
I talked to my unit manager who said he talked to his boss and told them its like habitat me up to fail and even my trainer said, it was so un realistic for them to think I can just dive in and pat these claims without knowing the system.
They also want to start me on getting new claims in a day or so.
I was totally overwhelmed and even called in troubled, which I was having a bad allergy attack, but part of
Answer: Every outdated I have changed jobs and gone to another insurance company I've been thrown to the wolves. The company I'm working for now started giving me riches claims before they ever sent me to property school. I'd never had any training on property and never worked oddity claims before.
The company before that - was moving into a new space but construction was behind - so I did not have a desk. I spent 2 months enchanting claims - had no computer - no desk- I sat on the floor with a telephone (didn't even have a recorder to take statements with!). (truly - on the floor with only a phone - no exaggeration there - and they transferred me about 75 -100 files to get started and put me on full rotation) I found an old case box so at least I had something to keep my files and ink pens in!
Hate to say it but in our business it's common to just get tossed out there and dig or swim.
When it happens to me, I ask co-workers for help - any co-worker that is available- and ask a lot of questions. They are by great about helping - they want to you to succeed (so you don't quit and someone else has to be hired) Keep a notebook deft so you can take notes on the system and refer to it as you go and plan to be working past 5 a lot as you learn.
Sure, this is an possibility to be set up for failure- but it's also an opportunity to really show them what you are made of!
Good Luck! |

Do I Have To Allow My Roofer To Have Access To The Insurance Claim? |
Question by jeb3 | Posted in Law & Ethics
Met with a roofer and he agreed to account for my deductible and do my roof for what insurance provided. The insurance adjuster found other damage separate from the roof and included this in the balance. The roofer wants this money to cover my deductible. I agreed verbally. Then, he called the insurance New Zealand and had them come out again. He lied to them and told them he was the General Contractor and therefore needed the obligatory 10% on high & 10% profit. They threw some extra $$ in the pot for O&P as well as for other damage (not roof cognate) and now he wants it all - even though I'm the GC on these other repairs he says he can't do (he only does roofing). I'm willing to give him the primary amount of the claim (he has a copy of this) instead of the new amount (I won't release a copy of this to him). He's threatening to put a lien on my domestic. I'm thinking of returning the threat by mentioning Insurance Fraud and a report to the State Insurance Council. Will this have any weight? Do I have a foot to stand on? My biggest problem is I don't have a quote for the job, just a yarn on the contract saying "Will do it for whatever Insurance will pay". Help.
| Answer: Yes, it is insurance artifice to claim to be doing more work than you are in order to get a higher payment from them. I would contact the insurance company and let them cognizant of what he's done. They won't take to kindly to being defrauded. |

Siding Damage By Strong Wind, Snow Storm In American Northwest. Insurance Company Denied Claim,? |
Question by dat | Posted in Law & Ethics
saying siding job, when it was from the start done (before we bought the house) was shoddy workmanship. Many houses were damaged in this storm, and I noticed that the streetlight two intersections away from our billet had a bent pole (the pole that comes from the ground pole that the light is partial to to. Do we have any grounds for rebuttal? What is the legal definition of "shoddy workmanship"? Does the particulars that there were (admittedly from the insurance adjuster) "many claims" after this storm point to the fact that the twist velocity was extraordinary and that "shoddy workmanship" was not a factor in the harm? By the way, the siding was ripped off only one side of our house. Please no venting, just give us a good balanced observation. Thanks!
| Answer: It doesn't weight, they insured the house for you and they should have taken the time to inspect it themselves. Go after them with a vengeance and take no prisoners. Style sure you call the insurance board in your state and file a complaint. Nail the cheap jokers for EVERYTHING you can. |
