              My auto insurance is auto pay. $132.04 was withdrew on 10/15/2024. I traded auto on a new one and switched insurance companies effective 10/23/2024. I have left numerous vm messages & email with agent but get no replies. I contacted Nationwide online because I keep getting transferred to the agent even when I call Nationwide direct. As you can see from email their response to my online contact with them they again say to contact agent direct. I am requesting a prorated refund for the month please. Thank you

              11/08/2024

              On September 24, 2024, I requested a straightforward rollover of $9,240.73 from my 457 account with ********************** to my Vanguard account. I provided all necessary paperwork and specified the destination for the check. However, shortly after, I discovered several issues: Nationwide sent an incorrect amount, canceled an existing loan I have with them without my authorization, and failed to notify me. When I called to address this, they acknowledged the error and placed a stop order on the check.On October 14, 2024, Nationwide sent another check, but as of November 8, 2024, ******** has yet to receive it. Nationwide claims the check was cashed by a ************* does not use, yet they are unable to return my funds. Their customer service has been appalling, with representatives like Eyen ******* and **** ******* offering no real assistance or resolution despite repeated follow-ups. My funds have been tied up for over a month, preventing me from investing and causing financial loss since September 2024, with Nationwide refusing to take responsibility. I am considering legal action and want others to be aware of Nationwides mishandling and unprofessionalism.
