Vanguard Fund pissed me off !!So I cashed in my previous employer 401k last thursday.The agent at vanguard informed about the 10% penalty for early withdrawl.The agent told me that because I had maintained this account for 2 years I would not be subject to a 25% penalty on this account.Fast forward to today when I get a return phone call from vanguard saying that my account was "actually"opened june 13th 2006 so I would now be assesed 25%!!!This did not sit well with me(LOL)I guess my question is am I screwed?are vanguard responsible for their error at the time of fund sale.Had I known I was only two weeks away I could have made an informed decision and just called back in a couple weeks! many thanks for any input!!!
