Product Description 

Protectmyid.com™ provides a complete program for identity theft protection.  One way it does this is by providing daily email alerts after reviewing your credit report on all three credit bureaus each day.  This service lets you know everything is ok or if and issue comes up.  This is a marked difference from only checking your credit report once a year.  Essentially, they will alert you of a potential problem in situations like new accounts opened in your name, new applications for credit, address changes, public record changes, and potentially negative information on your credit files.   

Then, they also have a service called CardSafe™ which reimburses for any money that is spent on your cards while they are stolen.  In addition, they also provide a 1 million dollar guarantee in the case your identity is stolen.  Not to mention, they give you a free Experian credit report.   

Benefits 

• Provide daily alerts on the status of your account. 
• Company is under the umbrella of Experian which is one of the 3 credit bureaus. 
• Currently, offer a free 30 day trial offer.   

Drawbacks 

• Daily alerts of the status of your account may be viewed as an inconvenience after awhile. 
• No distinct advantage over other products in the field. 
• Concern of what impact constant daily check of your credit reports may have on your credit score.   

Customer Comments

• None found for this service. 

Personal Review

This company offers a good basic service that is certainly better than nothing in terms of Identity theft protection.  The daily alerts will be viewed as a bonus by some and an annoyance by other prospective customers.  One challenge about identity theft protection is that is hidden and you only see it when something bad comes up.  This can lead some people to downgrade its value or wonder if it is even working as they need to see it to believe it.  For those in this camp, ProtectMyID® could be a good service.  However, for my money I would suggest looking at one of the companies like Lifelock which provides you covered protection from the start instead of alerting you when an issue arises.
