Overview: IdentityGuard, a Virginia based company, has been providing identity theft protection services for over ten years, and currently oversees eight million customers. Their Total Protection plan allows customers to access their 3-in-1 credit scores and credit scores from Equifax, TransUnion and Experian unlimitedly. IdentityGuard’s Total Protection plan also protects customers’ credit, internet, and computers against identity theft, and they even offer protection when customers are on-the-go.
Features: In addition to IdentityGuard’s Total Protection plan, they also offer less expensive identity theft protection plans including Good Watch, Watchful Eye and Extra Caution. The features for IdentityGuard’s Total Protection plan include daily scanning and monitoring, quarterly 3-in-1 credit score updates, email alerts, black market internet scanning and monitoring, public information monitoring, free anti-virus software, lost wallet protection and $1,000,000 reimbursement insurance to name a few. IdentityGuard also offers one-time purchase services for customers who do not want to subscribe to any plans.
Summary: IdentityGuard offers a number of features that other identity theft companies lack. Customers have the option of choosing between four different plans depending on their budget, and they may also choose services based on a one-time fee. IdentityGuard’s protection is very thorough – it secures all the avenues that identity thieves use to try and steal identities.
