Which Service should I discontinue

Red1Blue — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 21:28:28 GMT

To monitor my credit cards, I am using now Amex Credit Secure and Chase ID Protection. Recently I signed up for CreditWatch. I am not sure if I need both CS and Chase ID. I am going to cancel one of them. What do you think I should and what should I discontinue? Any suggestions?

I liked Amex Credit Secure.

Have you looked into Citi Identity Monitor? You can get it for 4.95/month if you sign up through correct link.

I found that CreditSecure did not have fully updated balances. I pulled TC immediately afterwards (only the TU, it wasn't time for all three) and it had updated balances which didn't show on CreditSecure's TU section.

i like credit secure because it doesn't have the 24 + 1 time restriction.

I also use Amex CreditSecure. The credit and score report is provided by EXPERIAN, it takes usually 2 days for them to send you an email of any changes in your report. So far it's reliable, plus Experian is better than Equifax. I hate them, EQUIFAX IS THE WORST CREDIT BUREAU, they also ruining people financial.
