I had that happen at Fidelity.+1 That would be my concern... some snafu that prevents us accessing our accounts... especially since Vanguard IME is very conservative and would likely select the most restrictive alternative available to them.
My brokerage account was the target of my share of DF's estate. As soon as the assets were transferred to my account the state of PA locked my account until the inheritance tax was paid. Took about 6 months. During that time I could trade just no withdrawals.
There was nothing Fidelity could do. Obviously a YMMV..
