It was a great experience

It was a great experience. I have been a victim of identity theft and until it happened to me I didn't quite understand how helpless one can feel when you are at the mercy of scammers using your social security number to apply for myriads of accounts in your name. Its frightening! But my team made it painless and it only required about 30 minutes of my time away from work. Thank you for making my day (James and Crystal)!

Aura is great!

It was such a pleasant experience to talk with Aura about my Identity Guard concern, which she did resolve. Moreover, she is such a delightful person to converse with, being a great listener while offering both pertinent and interesting comments. If I ever need to call again it will be a blessing for her to answer the call.
* Thank you for your services and for having an employee such as Aura.

Evany was fantastic

Evany was fantastic. She helped me to contact the creditors who reported the fraudulent activity. The process took almost 2 hours and she helped me the entire time. Today Evany made me really appreciate having your credit monitoring service. She should be given a commendation.

Grateful for Identity Guard's protection

When one experiences incidents of fraud, most of us do not know what to do. Thankfully, I am a customer of Identity Guard and not only am I protected, I am taken care of. Jeff, my recent specialist was a wonderful help, coach, and teacher. I was in good hands and felt secure. We become so vulnerable when experiencing a breach in the security of our accounts, identities and personal information. It makes a world of difference having Identity Guard's protection and them working on my behalf.

Help with stolen information

My credit card information was stolen and was trying to be used. Judith from the white glove department helped me resolve the issue. Her knowledge, professionalism and kindness was very impressive and reflected well on Identity guard as a whole, sincerely Curt Boudreau.

White Glove help on Fraud Issues

I had fraud issues with two credit cards. I contacted Identity Guard for advice. Under my monthly IG arrangement, IG indicated a “White Glove” expert would be contacting me regarding my concerns. White Glove expert Judith was outstanding. She patiently listened to my issue and then in an extremely organized process proceeded to explain the steps that I would need to protect myself from any further fraud. I was impressed with the professional delivery of these steps and even her willingness to go check with me whether any inquiries were made regarding my credit score. Again, she provided very useful steps to further protect me from additional fraud. Salute to Judith.

No real value - Money grab on auto renewals

Identity Guard didn't provide any real value. I signed up for a year's subscription for $204.62. It auto renewed after a year for $341.11. I called as soon as I saw the charge to get it reversed, and they said tough luck. I finally found the auto-renewal notice they sent buried in their daily charges spam. The service is definitely not worth your time or money, especially when they make an obvious money grab with subscription renewals.

Thank you for sharing your concerns about our refund policy. Identity Guard annual plans have a 30-day money back guarantee from time of enrollment and they renew yearly unless canceled prior to the renewal date. While this is Identity Guard's refund policy, a Specialist will reach out to you to go over options of how we may assist.

Safekeeping of sensitive data ... not so sure!

I had a few issues with this company all related to the simple matter of changing my name. Even though it's been over six months since I changed my name with the social security administration and with my driver's license, the system Identity Guard uses to tap to public records did not pick up my name. Option - email us your documents proving your new name via their unsecured email. I have done this with other banks and they all provide a secure link to transmit sensitive documents. Not Identity Guard! Contacted customer support 4 times - got 4 case numbers with the promise of a 24-48 response. No response. Called and waited 20 minutes - if I cancel I do not get my money back. As a customer I felt completely let down by the company that is supposed to be keeping my identity secure. Makes me wonder how they manage to keep my information secure when they don't have access to the most accurate records and they cannot provide secure links for sensitive information.

Thankful to have Identity Guard on my Team!

Bibi was so kind, helpful, informative and helped me navigate this confusing thing called identity theft. She stayed on the line with me while we figured out who tried to open an account using my information, she answered my questions and is walking me thru everything. I feel very lucky to have Identity Guard on my team. Thank you.

SCAM COMPANY

I cancelled my trial offer the day it was to be cancelled and i was to be charged the next day they charged me and when i called to get it removed they told me they do not refund charges. I was not to be chareged until the next day they charged me a day early and so it was their issue not mine. they are scams like every other fly by night company like them. Read the complaint you charged me a day prior to the end of the trial and two days before you said you would in ur welcome email. Your a scam company for trying to steal money then saying oh no refunds its in our terms. Its nkt in your terms that youll take my money two days before you should. SCAM COMPANY BEWARE.

BIBI is the best representative of your company

If only EVERY representative was as CARING and THOUGHTFUL, not to mention PATIENT as BIBI, our world would be a better place. She kept me calm and walked me through every stage to make sure I was protected and understood all my options. I'm forever grateful to this amazing person. Thank you, Bibi.
