For Adjusters with a year or two under their belts 3610 2
Started by mxr618
I finished my first calendar year with 380 daily claims and 33 flood claims with Pilot / Allstate. I'm home now and things are slow (at the moment) and I don't do 'slow' well.

Started by lhpgators
I am an IA and get all of my business from IA firms. I have been trying to get some direct insurance carrier clients but, as some of you may know, it has proved to be very difficult. I would never go after any carriers that I do work for now.
I have been speaking with someone who has very good relationships with carriers. This person is not an IA or IA firm. We are considering partnering together. Basically he would introduce me to potential clients and help with getting them to send me work. I...

NYC CLAIMS- Anyone looking for a roommate? 2551 2
Started by CharlesP233
I have been working claims in Jersey for the past month, but now I am being sent to NYC. My 3 buddies are being sent home, and the cheapest hotel I can find (that is not an hourly call girl type of hotel) is over $200 with tax. All the temp rooms are filled, and no landlord wants to rent their place by the month. I am clean, and I do not snore. If anyone is interested let me know.

To all of the newbies, and the experienced.......it is getting tougher to get work. Isaac threw up (puked) some hopes for some, but went where the work would not be (NOLA).

I'm thinking of renting a small office to work out of and I do not know if I should buy regular internet access via DSL or cable, or get a wireless card
IF I get wireless, I can use it in my car and have it with me at all times, but I am worried about quality of service. I have heard from many people that their wireless internet service sucks.
