ID Theft Protection through Discover

is it worth it in terms of credit reports & scores, as well as regular ID Theft Protection such as lifelock? Also does anyone have it through Discover?

There ok they pull TU and give you a FAKO score for $9.99 a month. One thing I liked about them was I could log on everyday and check my TU report. 

The ID theft was a waste it took them 2 months to let me know I had a new account reporting.

I'm paying the 9.99$. For the 3 credit reports I know it's fako. But I love it. Smiley Happy And to me it's totally worth it

maybe i will get them,i did call discover and ask them about it and a nice guy went over basically everything listed on their site and he even mentioned differences between id theft protection vs credit card fraud protection. nice thing is i can get it and cancel it at any time and start it up again at anytime with no penalties. Smiley LOL

I may head on over to Discover and check this out. If they now offer 3 reports for $9.99 a month it might be worth it.

I know American Express offers it for 15.99 a month with FAKO scores but you can only check them twice a month.

I actually just got it and so far I like it. Its FAKO, but cant beat $9.99 for all three reports.

Re: ID Theft Protection through Discover

Perhaps you may try what I am doing. I pay myFICO $4.95 a month for my true TU FICO score and monitoring and I also pay Citi $4.95/month for IdentityMonitor, which updates me quite frequently on items affecting all of my credit reports and scores. Both of these services work with the security freezes currently in place on all my files.

 

I passed on the service offered through my Discover card.
