Applied for Full Distribution due to leaving job, MY EXPERIENCE WAS AMAZING!

So, I have been with Slavic for about 3 years roughly. I separated from my job recently, which is how I originally got on with Slavic. My 1st time ever having one of these, I just really wanted to come leave a review because I’ve seen some crappy ones before I applied for my Distribution. Basically, I applied for a distribution after leaving my job! They made me wait 20 days from the last day of me receiving my last paycheck, before allowing anyone to apply for a distribution due to separation from job. Dude, I applied September 9th for the distribution (that was literally the 20th day of my waiting period and it allowed me to apply).. they update me every step of the way. Today is now September 18th, and I GOT MY MONEY BACK ALREADY!! Literally 9 days after applying for it! I’m amazed at how fast it went, and so happy. This truly helped me a lot, I can not thank Slavic enough! I will absolutely be recommending these guys to everyone I know with a job! lol. I just wanted to be the good review I haven’t seen, because yall deserve it. Also, customer service was ALWAYS great and very professional! Just all around an easy experience, which I appreciate! Thanks again, Slavic team!

My experiences with Slavic

My experiences with Slavic center upon the website and customer support. Both met my needs.

Unethical and non-existent customer service

Summary: Run as far away as you can. Never engage with them. Do not trust a single thing they say. Do private retirement if your company uses them.

Positive: Absolutely nothing. The website, plan features, and engagement is worthless. There is truly not a single compliment I can give this company or platform.

Negative: No written customer service, only being able to call during narrow hours and requiring to provide a LONG list of PII (far more than any other company I've ever encountered) before they'll do anything.

They will not provide any support to actually help you, but only say what you can't do. There is no interest in doing the right thing.

They engage in unethical auto-enrollment practices without employers being aware.

Their fees are absolutely absurd and disgusting.

Update to Slavic's response: My initial concerns and needs have been resolved. My complaints and concerns about their business practices and ethics remain, and it is telling that I had to escalate to public complaints to have resolution.

To be clear, some of the refund requests were sent directly from the HR division, and Slavic had not consistently responded to them either.

While I cannot completely confirm it, I believe the email misspelling was provided by a Slavic phone representative. They also never responded to my emailed responses they initiated (with the correct email address). Therefore, the final assessment they summarized is not entirely accurate.

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We appreciate the opportunity to review this matter and respond directly.

Slavic401k conducted an internal review of the issues raised, including auto-enrollment notification, communication attempts, and the contribution correction request. Our review confirmed that enrollment occurred in accordance with the plan provisions established by the employer and that an enrollment notification was sent to the email address on file. We acknowledge that this notification may have been overlooked and understand how that contributed to confusion. During our investigation, we also identified that your initial email outreach did not reach our systems due to a misspelling of our email domain. As a result, those messages were not received or logged. Once contact was established, we clarified IRS 402(g) correction rules and addressed prior miscommunication.

As a courtesy, the applicable processing fees were waived and a refund was processed and issued via expedited delivery at no cost. We regret the frustration caused by communication gaps, have escalated this feedback internally, and confirm that this matter has been resolved.

Pending Litigation KY

I just filed a lawsuit against this company and will be filing complaints with the SEC and all other regulatory agencies. Constant, evolving, suspicious hurdles for weeks on end. Had my identity verified by Plaid today, only to have Slavic advise that they still have concerns about my identity and refused to let me speak to a supervisor. I don't play games. We'll work it out in court. Don't put a nickel in this company, is my advice.

Astonishingly impossible website

Astonishingly impossible website to navigate. I guess by making your 401K account impossible for anyone to access (including yourself) they are keeping data secure and compliant, but not being able to use a service kind of misses the point of the whole exercise. Just logging in to my account after 3 months took about 18 minutes, 14 captchas, creating a new universal ID, not being allowed to use the same email, trying to verify a device, having verification fail, having that failed verification kick you back to the beginning so you have to go through the process again... It's a little out of control. Not very confidence inspiring. I hope their financial advisors are better than their UX/UI team.

Let’s be honest..

Let’s be honest... most reviews for financial platforms only pop up when someone’s frustrated and wants to vent. That’s why I felt it was worth chiming in with a positive experience.

Today, I was logging into my Slavic401k account for the first time on a new computer and noticed some negative reviews on Trustpilot. Given how high it ranked in search results, I figured I’d add my two cents.

I work for a small company and have been using Slavic401k without any issues. My Vanguard Target Retirement 2055 fund has performed exceptionally well, and I genuinely look forward to the weekly Friday email. It's a nice touch to "hear directly" from the CEO and get a quick snapshot of my balance.

Bottom line: I'm happy. Everything works smoothly, my investments are growing, and I appreciate the personal touch. Five stars from me!

Like others I have nothing good to say

Like others I have nothing good to say

I worked per diem for a short time for a company using this plan. I only have $127 in the account and they are charging me $75 to close it. What a scam. Terrible that companies would use a company like this, shows how little they care about employees.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We understand your concern and want to provide some clarity.

The plan you were enrolled in was part of an automatic enrollment process, which is a standard practice designed to help employees begin saving for the future. Prior to an automatic enrollment becoming effective, detailed plan disclosures, including all applicable fees and the option to opt-out, were shared to ensure transparency.

Participants have up to 90 days from their first contribution to opt-out and receive a full refund. When a distribution occurs after employment ends, a standard processing fee applies. This fee helps cover the cost of maintaining and closing the account and is consistent with practices across the industry.

We truly regret any frustration this has caused and remain committed to supporting all participants with clear communication and fair practices. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your experience further, we’re here to help.

Sincerely,
Slavic401k Team

I no longer work at my former job

I no longer work at my former job. Unable to even get my money. I can't get logged in, because company has scrubbed my former info. So every attempt to log on comes up Invalid Credentials.
Such bs.
Such a harsh company in so many ways.
Never work for Volante Senior Living, they are quite hostile to employees who speak out.
I will try calling these people since my email didn't seem to get them going.

Avoid if you can.

They make it difficult to rollover your funds, their online and app interfaces have been terrible, they implemented a new login system before tax season--forcing everyone to create a new login and link their old accounts via an 11+plus step process, and they seemingly have no way to e-mail or other wise contact customer service (at least as of 4/12/2025 for folks with a 401k account) besides having everyone call their 800 number. Avoid this provider if you can; unfortunately since it's employers who choose 401k administrators, many folks won't have that option.

Bad service, but to my knowledge not a scam

Not a scam to my knowledge, but my 401k portal doesn't work at all. Neither do API integrations to my financial planning software. Pretty disappointing, may transfer the assets.

Wow!! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!

Wow!!! I'm not sure were to start! First of all I never write reviews, I feel I need to with this! They lie for one thing! And they take a long time! I spoke with customer service yesterday morning and she put me on hold to check the status of my check, she said it looks like they tried to direct deposit it and there was a problem, so they sent it over night with FedEx and I would get it today.
I called back today to get a tracking number from them for the FedEx, and the guy said there is no tracking number because they haven't sent it! Wait what!?!?!? He said it has to go through another prosess with fidelity and that takes another 3-5 business days! Wow! Not sure why the lady straight up lied to me! Complete run around from this place!!! And they lie!! Please look at the call transcripts from the phone call I made to you yesterday, you will see how you lied!!!Sad!!! Did my loan request 08-13-2024 still waiting!!!
UPDATE: 09-13-2024
Once again LIES!!!!
I finally got the check on 09-11-2024, took it to my bank they have to hold it 10 days, got a call from Slavic today and they said I put a request in to cancel my check!!!! WHAT!?!?!?! So the check I have at my bank is VOID! They have to reissue a new check and I'll get it next week! NIGHTMARE! Complete NIGHTMARE! Someone has money invested someplace and they don't want to come off of it. I thought this call from them was a joke, unfortunately it's not!!!! I told them to review all their phone recordings cause NO place in ANY conversation did I say cancel that check. Something's not right with this whole thing!!!

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your loan request. As a Third Party Administrator, we occasionally encounter unforeseen challenges that may delay the processing of requests. We regret the lack of communication from our customer service team regarding the potential extension of our standard processing time due to these challenges.

Once we obtained the necessary information, our team expedited the processing of your request. Please be aware that your plan involves paying agent services, and part of the payout process is managed by an external company. Unfortunately, this detail was overlooked by the customer service agent assisting you, leading to a misunderstanding about the expected timeline for your request.

Roadblocks to withdrawing funds.

Twice this year, I have started a distribution. After about ten days, they update it as canceled saying that my plan only allows for one distribution per year. Actually, it's not that long of a document and it says I can make a distribution once per calendar month. There is no way to contact them except via phone call where they make you run a maze providing all your security information twice. They tell me I'm right and they will take care of it. And then you wait, two days now with no communication while they are refusing to let me access my funds. I am now at day 15 since the original request. In what world does it take more than two weeks get your own money and why can't they hire people capable of providing real customer service?

They said since my old employer I was separated from March 1 employer uses Justworks as a payroll processing company and my new company uses Justworks that they cannot allow me to do a withdrawal, I am almost certain this is illegal as Justworks is the payroll processing company and NOT the company I was separated from.
