NextAdvisor.com launched a new review of the new brand protection service against identity theft Equifax ID Patrol. The service, which has received our highest possible rating of five stars, combines many of the features of Equifax credit report monitoring service with some unique features that are specifically designed to help protect customers against theft identity.
ID Patrol includes a free report 3-in-1 credit and score at registration, 3-bureau credit monitoring, unlimited credit reports from Equifax, the ability to define a gel credit on your Equifax credit report, internet scanning for suspicious use of your personal information (including social security numbers and up to 10 credit card numbers) and $ 20,000 in identity theft insurance. Just about the only thing that ID Patrol does not include free access to your credit score, but you can buy your FICO score from Equifax extra cost.
Overall, we believe that ID Patrol is a great product for consumers who are concerned about protecting their credit and identity, but are OK with the purchase of their credit scores separately.
