Equifax ID Patrol review launches on NextAdvisor.com

January 29th, 2009 - Posted by Joe

NextAdvisor.com has launched a new review of Equifax's brand new identity theft protection service, ID Patrol. The service, which received our highest possible five star rating, combines many of the features of Equifax's credit report monitoring service with a few unique features that are specifically designed to help protect subscribers from identity theft.

ID Patrol includes a free 3-in-1 credit report and score at sign up, 3-bureau credit monitoring, unlimited Equifax credit reports, the ability to set a credit freeze 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 doesn't include is free access to your credit scores, although you can purchase your FICO score from Equifax for an additional fee.

Overall, we believe that ID Patrol is a great product for those consumers that are concerned about protecting their credit and their identity, but are OK with purchasing their credit scores separately. You can read our full ID Patrol review and compare other identity theft protection services on NextAdvisor.com.

    certainly like your web-site however you have to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I to find it very troublesome to inform the truth on the other hand I will certainly come again again.
