What is Alert Me?

Alert Me is a consumer credit monitoring service that will provide information to help stop credit fraud and identity theft. The service also provides insurance coverage to help defray costs associated with identity theft.

What is Identity Theft?

Identity theft occurs when someone uses personal information without your permission to commit fraud or other crimes. Identity thieves use information such as your name, Social Security number, credit card number, or other identifying information.

What does it cost?

Alert Me is $4.25 per month. The price includes daily monitoring of your credit file, email notification of credit activity, annual reminder to order your free credit reports and identity theft insurance (except in New York). If you select the monthly option, your account will be charged $4.25 and we will auto-renew your subscription and bill you every 30 days.

Alert Me is also available quarterly or annually. If you select quarterly, your account will be charged $12.00 every 90 days, and annually is $45.00 every 360 days.

How do I Subscribe?

When you subscribe, we will request various data about you to authenticate your identity. We will also ask you some additional questions from your Experian credit file that only you will know the answers to verify your identity. This process will not affect your credit score.
