Just as a point of order, the way accounts are most efficiently XFerred are through a DTC and/or an ACAT.

The one is overnight, the other takes about 3 to 4 days. I forget which is which.

The overnight one cannot XFer all assets; but you can leave almost nothing in the account and XFer the rest using the slower method.

I think the ACAT is the overnight and the DTC is the 3 or 4 day transfer. Been a long time since I was that acquainted with the procedure.

EDIT

If you really want to hack 'em off you ACAT it and follow up with the DTC. Blows their minds. They will always delay the extra day on the DTC. But by then you've already taken the bulk of the funds and left.

Why does it Blow their Minds? Because most people don't know what an ACAT is. They figure they can stall you, speak with you, drag their feet.....

But the bucks are gone and they usually aren't even aware of it because no one ACATs. 'Cept me, of course.

RE-EDIT

By the way, ACATs and such are for Individual Accounts, not Plans; just glanced again at your Post and did not wish to confuse the two.
