How long are the contracts for identity theft protection? Are there any that are month to month?

August 4th, 2010 - Posted by Tasha

Q:  How long are the contracts for identity theft protection?  Are there any that are month to month?

A: All of the identity theft protection services reviewed on our site offer month-to-month commitments.  Two of them, Trusted ID and Lifelock, have both month-to-month and annual options.  If you choose their annual plan you'll receive a discounted monthly price.  But you can always forgo the discount and select a month to month plan.

We do recommend keeping identity theft protection longer than a month or two, because it's impossible to predict when a crime may occur.  If you want to try them out first, the majority of the companies on this site offer free trials of their identity theft protection service.  To find the right option for your needs, check out our comparison chart.
