What is the best credit monitoring service?

Equifax vs True Credit(TU) vs Credit Expert (EX)vs MyFico vs Privacy Guard vs ..... I've had CE and Equifax but I got different number from both. I've also obtained my report annually from ACR.com and it was a little different too. Some of these are fine but trying to unsubscribe is like trying to quit AOL...impossible. I'm basically looking to monitor all 3 and get accurate updates via email. Opinions?

I'm a True Credit person, myself. It is useful ONLY for monitoring changes to your accounts - DISREGARD ANY SCORES. They are not Fico scores.

Agreed...use that myself.  Fairly cheap, as monitoring services go, and even tho the scores are not fico's...you will see when they're going up, which is good.  If you're working on getting neg's off your report & see some positive results, give it a little time & pull your fico's again & compare against the fako's.

OK, so just keep the membership going for True Credit and then pay the $50 for a one-time pull for your fico score from time to time, is that right?  Or do you guys pay the $50/yr fee to Fico?  Does that entitle you to unlimited fico scores per year or just once?

Whatever you do, google for myfico discount codes first. Save yourself a few ends.
