Does anyone have a Health Reimbursement Account? Or a Flexible spending account? Have you had problems with it??
I worked for a large healthcare company for a year and I elected for both. So they payroll deducted money every month to put into these accounts. I no longer work for this company. So I called and asked for them to cashout my accounts since I am no longer covered under their policies. Ya know what they said?
"Its not your money. The company is now in control of it and it can''t be cashed out unless you submit a claim from before your end date."
Can they do this? I was never aware of this when I was hired. Its MY money and they are telling me i CANT have it??
Anyone else know of this happening? I have almost a thousand dollars in those accounts that I put in there. They cant just keep it can they??
