My husband and I have been working very hard lately at getting out of debt. We don’t want to do all this work to have someone else sweep in and mess up our credit all over again. He’s been wanting to join Lifelock for a very long time now so he can keep an eye on everything.
Not only does Lifelock monitor your credit scores, they monitor your driver’s license and credit cards, as well as you address where they will look for sex offenders and other public records. They will review each attempt to misuse your identity, and proactively contact you anytime they detect an exposure or threat. LifeLock Ultimate® protection goes one step further—if they detect a change to the contact information on your bank accounts, they’ll contact you to help correct the situation fast. You can set up text alerts on your phone to get alerted right away!
Our service guarantee** includes:
- If you become a victim of identity theft while you are a LifeLock member we will spend up to $1 million to hire experts, lawyers, investigators, consultants and whatever else it takes to help your recovery.
- A dedicated remediation specialist to personally assist you every step of the way in the recovery process.
- Benefits provided under a zero deductible identity theft insurance policy as described on the site.
While setting up my husband’s account, I had a few questions. A chat box came up on the screen and an agent walked me through the sign up process and was able to answer my questions. The agent was very friendly, quick to answer, and helped quite a lot. When I was on Lifelock my account auto-renewed without an email to me, which caused my account to go negative. I asked the agent about that and she said that now they make sure to let you know ahead of time that your account will renew so as not to cause problems.
There are two options for Lifelock: Lifelock Standard which is $10 a month or $110 a year and Lifelock Ultimate which is $25 a month or $275 a year. You can sign up on the Lifelock site. What do you do to make sure your identity is secure? Have you ever been a victim of identity theft?
I had that auto-renew issue when I was registered for LifeLock. That was an awful experience. Glad to see they’ve changed it.
I haven’t been a victim of identity theft, or known anyone who has. I just make sure not to give out too personal of information, and definitely no credit card numbers!
I’ve seriously considered getting this product. Thanks for the information!
I know a ton of people who use this and are extremely satisfied with their service.. It really is a needed protection.
Thanks for the info. It is definitely something to consider. There are so many security breeches. It’s unbelievable.
i dont know about this! but would prolly try it and tell my husband soon! sounds amazing
This seems like a good service, definitely something to think about and consider.
I’ve seen commercials about this. I like the way you presented the info. We can never be too careful!
We just always put alerts on our numbers with the three credit bureaus, and we keep close tabs on our accounts, if anything every looks quirky we call someone to clarify. I did get a free year from Target after their registers were compromised even though I didn’t use my card there during that time, so I took advantage of it, and so far so good 🙂
I hear great things about LifeLock. A friend of mine works for them. Great info!
Such a great service! Thanks for sharing your experience!
That looks like a great services. I will be looking into this.
I’ve always heard great things about LifeLock. $10 a month is really affordable too!
I have heard of lifelock but have not looked into it… seems good and affordable so I may have to check it out.
I think everyone should have a program like Life Lock. There are to many people that get scammed. Thanks for sharing.
Identity theft is such a serious issue. I wish that more can be done to prevent it and it shouldn’t fall onto the individual. This is a social issue and needs to be solved on the community level.
I like the auto renew options. My husband does not because that means stored cc info. Lielock def. sounds worth looking into!
I didn’t really have an issue with the auto-renew, just that there was no warning it was coming, because I forgot when I signed up. If I had an email telling me it was renewing I would have had no problem at all.
I’ve always seen these ads, but never really thought anything of it. I never have had a problem with this before, my mom has been having trouble with people trying to use her insurance.
I love companies with good, and personal, customer service. And the service in general sounds amazing!
I’ve never heard of this service before. I will definitely check it out as it sounds like a great and necessary service.
I have heard of Lifelock before, but I haven’t looked into it much. I sounds like I may need to do that. A great way to help protect your identity is to freeze your credit. In some states it’s free to do that.
I use LifeLock, so I feel more peace of mind about things. My mom uses it too which is where I heard about it.
This is a good financial security system. I’m not sure if this kind of service is being offered in our banks. Thanks for sharing!
I have lifelock. It’s nice to have something that is monitoring your identity. Something is better than nothing.
I love Lifelock; it keeps me from stressing about my identity being stolen.
This looks like a good option for those who are afraid of Identity theft. I hear that it is very life altering when it happens.
I really need to look into this. With as much as I travel, I am so afraid someone is going to steal my identity.
LifeLock definitely gave me a sense of security when I was a member! 🙂
I found out earlier this year how important this is when our money was stolen from our bank account. It’s very easy to happen. I will check this out thanks.
We really need to do this!! I’ve heard great things about them too.
