I agree your adjuster should have called you to let you know they were running late. Most carriers also require first contact estimates where the adjuster writes the estimate out on the scene. Why you haven't heard from him yet I don't understand. Some carriers do not allow independent adjusters (versus their staff adjusters) to present estimates to insureds without the estimate being reviewed and approved by the staff claim manager so that is my guess on what is going on here.<BR/><BR/>I'll be interested in hearing how this turns out for you.<BR/><BR/>From the roofers standpoint, that is insurance fraud offering to cover an insureds deductible....something the insurance department who monitors contractors storm activities would be most interested in as well as your insurance agent.<BR/><BR/>Do I have your permission to use your post for training purposes for new adjusters about what NOT to do? I'd like to use your post on these two websites with your permission.<BR/><BR/>www.claimSmentor.com- online claim mentoring site for new adjusters<BR/><BR/>www.dimechimes.wordpress.com- adjuster information blogAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
