In my line of work I deal with lots of adjusters & different companies.
Progressive is absolutely the worst of the worst.
I'm all about earning a profit for your work but when it comes to cheating your customers that's just not right.
The last Progressive claim I repaired I worked offa their estimate because no other shop in the community would touch it for what they would pay.
When I was done I came in under budget & they wouldn't even pay their own estimate dollar amount!
But you can have trouble with any of them. We have State Farm & when my wife's new at the time Black '92 Pathfinder got silver paint sprayed on it the adjuster offered us $400 & told us no body shop around here could paint that truck & make it look right! I told them then it will travel until it finds one that could paint it!
Long story short they paid a local shop to paint it (And it turned out fine!) but paid them over twice as much as they offered me NOT to paint it!
If they could pay the shop $900 to paint it why didn't they offer me the $900 to start with?
Me & my agent had a long & up close conversation about this at the time!
