| Summary |
Low price means poor service! Our damage was on Nov. 2007, we had to go through the other guys insurance to get anything done. Now in January 2008, we are hopeful we can have the damage repaired that was caused by the other guy. We received such poor service that we are moving our insurance to Progressive. Progressive handled our claim on the other parties insurance 100% better than the 21st insurance claims person. We will certainly tell everyone we work with, family and friends not to use 21st Century auto insurance. First, the 21st Century claims rep claimed against our insurance. The damage was not our fault. We were not going to pay the deductible. She never asked us how we wanted to handle the claim knowing the damage was not our fault. Secondly, she was so inadequate in contacting the other party to settle without claiming against their insurance that we ending up doing all the work. We had the auto body estimate, 21st Century estimate and the 3rd party insurance company, Progressive, perform an estimate. Three estimates are very time consuming for all. The 21st Century claims rep never shared the estimate with the other party's insurance. She provided no support except to give us the insurance company’s phone number for the other party. We did all the work. The claims rep at 21st was also never available. We always had to leave a message. She was untimely in returning our calls (works limited hours). We both work and she could never call at a time when we were available. Where's the customer service? No information was given by 21st Century to the third party insurance company, except my husband’s name and phone number. The 21st claims rep never explained how the process works. When the claim was finally turned over to the third party's insurance company (in January, 2008), when speaking to the third party's claims rep, she was most helpful in explaining how the process works and how we can proceed. We never received this information from the claims rep at 21st Century. She seemed uninterested and quite put out, refusing to give us any information or assistance. Very poor service! When we asked to speak to a manager, he said this is how they do business. We will take our business else where. Low price means poor service. |
