      Answered
      I receive an annual annuity payment every year on April 1st. Although I have updated my address in the past, they were still sending my check to my brother's home address. This year because I am unable to walk, I called on February 17, 2024 to change my payment from check to direct deposit. My account was verified. I did the verification on line. When I called them today because my payment wasn't in my account, they said I should have called them to do the verification. So they did a stop payment on the check and said it could be up to 12 business days. This is unacceptable. I have payments due before April 5th or I will be charged late fees.

      April 19, 2024 ************************* ***************************************************************** RE: BBB Customer Review ID ****** TIAA SR# ************* Dear **************,This correspondence is in regard to the April 8 customer review you filed with the *********************************************, which was received by TIAA on April 9. In the review, you state that you have not been able to complete a rollover from your TIAA retirement account.Upon review, I understand you called our *********************** (NCC) on March 8, and requested a rollover from your Retirement Choice Plus (RCP) contract with the **************************. I see your request expired on April 8, because **** had not received the necessary spousal waiver required to complete your request. We sent you a notice advising of this expiration on this same date. I also show that you called our NCC on April 8 and were informed of the expired rollover request. A current rollover request was submitted on April 8, and the transaction was pending awaiting an updated spousal waiver.Our records show you submitted the required spousal waiver on April 10. We have processed your March 8 request utilizing the April 10 spousal waiver you provided. A check was directed as you instructed to ******************** on April 18.I regret the inconvenience experienced on this matter. For specific questions related to this inquiry, you can contact me directly at ***************** or by calling **************************. If you have additional questions, please contact us at ************. Consultants are available weekdays from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. (ET). Additional information on TIAA services can also be found on our website at TIAA.org.Sincerely,***************************** Customer Resolution Manager
