    Signed up for trial and tried to call to cancel within 7 day trial period. Was placed on hold, then disconnected. Multiple attempts and they've still not answered with an actual human being. They claim they've never received a call from me. Upon complaint they swear they've called me. Oddly my caller ID and voicemail show no calls nor messages left. Looking at similar reviews this seems to be their MO: deny, avoid, charge, recycle. An Attorney General or consumer protection group needs to investigate them.

    I cancelled my subscription only a day after my 7 day trial ended. I was billed and they refused to even give me a refund or even a prorated return. I would not recommend them ever. They hope you forget to cancel the short trial so they can take your money and run. That is a very predatory system.

    Hi Erwinn, and thank you for your feedback. We apologize for your experience. We appreciate that you gave us a try. While we do offer trial memberships, they do need to be cancelled within the agreed-on trial period.

    The business model for this company is to just get money from you. You are asked for a $1 dollar charge for a free trial and then they will immediately enroll you into their program for 34.99 a month. They say they send you an email about this, so pay attention. You have 7 days! Including weekends. For this to happen. I was told I would not be charged for the services and then I was still charged anyways. You NEED to call to cancel and they STILL try and sell you their insurance. It takes about 20 minutes to do so. If you do the $1 dollar trial, be sure to cancel immediately. This is a good way for the company to scam you. My account was put in the red zone for this, so be aware. This is pretty much a scam.

    There is no reason in this day and age that you should need to call customer service during business hours to wait on hold just to cancel a membership. Overall, services are overpriced and you can get same for free on many other sites

    While the service Identity IQ is likely legit, my bank provides these services for free. So, I called almost a year ago to cancel my subscription before I went through a long medical issue. Now that I am able to look at my bank statements, I found that my subscription was never cancelled and I have been charged $29.99 month for all of these months...that is about $300.00. They claim they do not have a record of my call to cancel, yet I made the call with my financial advisor sitting with me. They are willing to reverse the last charge of $29.99 made 10 days ago, but that is it. Isn't it ironic that a credit monitoring service is one that has taken my money??

    Reviewed Oct. 17, 2021

    I used this service for what I thought was a one time fee so I could apply for a loan for a 1 dollar charge. Unbeknownst to me they automatically signed me up for a reoccurring charge of 34.99 a month which you can't cancel without calling them. I was unaware of this and no it put my account in to the red for the month. Seems like a sneaky way of doing business to me. I would not have done this had it been clear they were going to take money automatically and make it so difficult to cancel. Not happy with this company at all.

    My brother's bank account was hacked into by a hacker that was making charges via IdentityIQ. When I initially called, I was transferred to an upper management woman who took all the information and it was eventually taken care of. But during the process I tried called the woman who I initially talked to and was never called back. I had to be in contact with my brother's bank to resolve this issue because he is disabled.

    The last time I spoke with this company they had the nerve to try to get me to sign up for their services after IdentityIQ failed to even prevent their own company, which is supposed to prevent you from this type of fraud, to get hacked. I apologize in advance if I used any incorrect technical terms when referring to identity and fraud protection. I just concerned about when people are paying this company for identity and fraud protection etc. that this company was hacked themselves and at a cost of many hours of myself making sure it was resolved and not even a followup call from their fraud department even explaining what happened. So I recommend anyone using this service to be aware and check that you weren't hacked and charged for services that you didn't ask for.

    One final note, my brother never had an account with IdentityIQ and somehow they were able to get to his bank account while using Identity IQ as a way to access his bank account. So buyer beware and if ConsumerAffairs.com would like to contact me for additional information, I welcome them to contact me. So buyers beware.

    IdentityIQ disclosed everything and made sure everything was secured and confidential. So you don't have to worry about anything happening to your information. I had a little difficulty trying to understand it. But once I got the hang of it, as far as learning what everything meant and how to use it, it was piece of cake. The initial contact I had was very helpful, as far as making it easy to understand, how everything is read, and how credit is looked at.

    I was impressed that when it opened up, it gave your credit score from all three credit bureaus. But they could make their system computer-friendly so that it would be obvious to even an idiot like me that when you click on this area, it will take you to where it says. They should have a tutorial that introduces you to their system. Also, they are kind of pricey.

    I'm trying to manage my credit heavily and I don't want anybody using my credit, using my name or trying to get anything in my name. I get alerts from IdentityIQ, but I don't know how I got with it. Whenever you file your credit report for the year, it sends you over to those types of things and you have so many days to cancel. What happened is I didn't cancel, so it billed me without me even knowing it.

    Credit RX required me to enroll in an identity theft protection service as a way for them to track the progress of the work that they do for me. Credit RX referred me to IdentityIQ. I used them sometime last year. Once Credit RX was pretty much done with the services, I cancelled IdentityIQ. But something was up again with my credit so I hired Credit RX to clear it up. I had to be enrolled in IdentityIQ again.

    I go on the IdentityIQ website periodically to see if things are matching up and see how often they report new information regarding balance reduced that goes on with my credit. I see if everything is correct. I have experience as well and I have scores. I'm on a few different credit trackers. Compared to IdentityIQ, I feel like I get more frequent checks with other credit monitoring entities. IdentityIQ takes a little longer to update my file.

    I was trying to get my credit clean. I signed up with IdentityIQ and so far, everything on my credit report is accurate and I was happy to know it's secure. I didn't have to worry about it being a scam. It's been good. I see my payments are taken out. But I still have to sign up for annualcredit.com to protect myself. It's used so I can connect with the person who's working on cleaning my credit.

    I usually pay from Equifax. I'm paying for TransUnion and Experian too. IdentityIQ is the one that really sends me all the information that I really need and monitor and was able to lock my accounts. I feel secure because I haven't had anything go wrong with my Social Security or credit card. IdentityIQ is a legit company and I hope it will stay that way.

    I have a neighbor that is very careful in who they use and what they do with certain companies. They are cleaning up their credit as well and they recommended Credit America to me and Credit America recommended IdentityIQ to me. A lot of people are probably pleased with it. There are a lot of positive things going on. I have also already recommended IdentityIQ to others to actually use it to help get in the credit scores and see what needs to be work done, what needs to be removed, or what needs to be used as a contact for the consumer from the credit report. Since I used IdentityIQ and I forwarded all information to Credit America, I have heard back from whoever they contacted in reference to having certain things removed on my credit.
