Thanks for posting your results here. Just know that all the tooth enamel ground away will be spread out to those of us dragging our feet.I'll probably wait until January to switch. That way, you guys will flush out any "gotchas", hehe!
Or I might go with the gauss approach (a highly respected member here for these types of things), if direct transfer is going to be too laborious.
I stopped doing "direct transfers" of HSAs one or two custodians ago. I just request a personal check for my balance, close the account, then deposit the funds into the new HSA ENSURING THAT IT IS CODED AS A 60 day/INDIRECT ROLLOVER. You do have to ensure that you don't do this type of rollover too often (ie more than once per/year - I think 366 satisfies the requirement, but do check on your own) or it could go really bad with the IRS.
