Sounds to me like you need the clout of an outsider to help you explain the whys and wherefores of YOUR LEGAL OPTIONS to your pension fund manager. If you are vested, you are vested. Period, End of story. Keep trying. And those 50% penalties you refer to being whacked with is basically what the company contributed, right? So you got your own money back. It's all in perspective my dear man. For what its worth, I wouldn't own a piece of someone elses debt if you gave it to me! Defaults will be rampant post 01/01/00 Remember, 18c of every dollar in there NOW, is all that will NOT evaporate post 01/01/00 Most likely your job will also, then you'll get to exercise your "option" that they tell you is your only choice. Might as well get a self-directed IRA set up now...the paperwork can be daunting...fund it with some simple amount, and have it ready to catch the falling knife of your pension after Y2K. O/49r
