AlertMe 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.
Daily credit
monitoring:
By scanning your credit daily,
AlertMe is a first line defense
against discrepancies that may
affect your credit worthiness. When
a significant change such as a new
account, change of address or
delinquent account is detected on
your credit file, AlertMe will send
you an e-mail notification. AlertMe
also provides the steps you should
take if you believe the activity
could be fraudulent.
Identity
theft insurance:
Included with your subscription to
the AlertMe service is up to $25,000
in identity theft insurance to cover
your out-of-pocket expenses incurred
to restore your identity and repair
your credit (not currently available
to residents of New York). Details
about the insurance can be found in
the
insurance
summary.
Optional online access to
credit reports and scores:
AlertMe gives you online access to
credit reports and scores. You can
easily and quickly request a credit
report and score anytime you like.
In addition to being able to view or
print the credit report at the time
you request it, AlertMe keeps a
historical copy of each credit
report you request through the
service.
Monthly reassurance
notification: If there has been
no significant credit activity in
the past 30 days, AlertMe will send
you an e-mail letting you know there
has been no activity and that your
credit continues to be monitored.
Yearly free credit report
reminder: Provides you a
reminder and instructions on
ordering the free credit reports
available due to the Fair and
Accurate Credit Transactions (FACT)
Act.
Because identity theft is the
nation's fastest growing financial
crime, you need to make sure that
you remain the only you. AlertMe is
here to help!
