Our editor’s take
We like that OmniWatch offers a wide range of services for identity theft protection, including an insurance policy of up to $2 million, stolen funds reimbursement and $25,000 in ransomware protection. Its 24/7 support and 30-day free trial are also appealing features.
However, as a new company, it’s difficult to compare customer satisfaction with OmniWatch versus other identity theft services. OmniWatch is not suitable for anyone interested in purchasing a family plan, as OmniWatch only offers individual plans.
OmniWatch products
OmniWatch sells identity theft protection services to individuals across the United States. Customers can choose between two different plans, Basic or Premium, depending on which services they want included in their overall monthly cost.
Its Basic identity theft protection services include:
- Up to $2 million in identity theft insurance
- Monthly TransUnion credit reports and VantageScore 3.0 scores
- TransUnion Credit Lock+
- Stolen funds reimbursement
- Dark web monitoring
The Premium version includes all of the above, as well as:
- TransUnion, Experian and Equifax credit monitoring and credit reports
- Up to $25,000 in ransomware protection
Once you sign up, you’ll have access to your own dashboard, which highlights your “identity threat rating.” This rating is a number from one to 10, based on what types of data (if any) have been exposed. It also highlights any alerts, recent data breaches, real-time credit scores and more.
It’s on this dashboard where you’d notice if something is wrong, like if your information is potentially breached. In that case, you’ll have to reach out to OmniWatch’s 24/7 U.S.-based restoration agents. The team will guide you through the restoration process and file paperwork to restore your identity and initiate reimbursements.
However, it’s unclear how long that process may take and what you should expect from this service.
How to get OmniWatch
Getting OmniWatch just requires signing up on the website. You’ll insert personal information like your birthday and address to start the basic identity monitoring.
To get identity restoration, identity theft insurance and lost wallet features, you will need to verify your identity with TransUnion, which may include steps like submitting your driver’s license, Social Security number and/or passport information.
OmniWatch cost
The Basic plan costs $9.99 per month, while Premium costs $14.99 per month at the time of publishing. Both include a free trial month that can be canceled at any time.
Other identity theft companies often offer family or kids packages, usually at a discounted price with specialized services. But OmniWatch seems only to sell individual plans with set prices regardless of the person and their age. If you’re purchasing for a family, you may be better off purchasing from a company that specializes in this type of plan.
OmniWatch FAQ
What is OmniWatch?
OmniWatch is an identity theft protection company offering credit monitoring, ID theft insurance, credit locks and more. As a new company, its website is somewhat limited in specifics on how the process works. But in general, you sign up for a monthly monitoring plan that, in the event of a breach, may pay out a certain dollar amount toward lost funds or other costs, like having to pay for a new driver’s license.
How does OmniWatch work?
OmniWatch monitors your identity and credit to catch any potential breaches or risks in real time. If the technology does notice something, it will alert you immediately. Then, you’ll have to reach out to OmniWatch’s 24/7 service team. They will initiate the process of fixing the issues and mediating any problems and lost funds.
Where is OmniWatch available?
The company doesn’t specifically mention state availability, but because it’s online and doesn’t require a physical location, there likely aren’t limitations.
Is OmniWatch legit?
OmniWatch seems to be a legitimate identity theft protection company, but it’s new and has minimal information available on its website and social media channels. However, with a free 30-day trial, you can get a feel for the effectiveness of the company and, if you’re not satisfied, cancel at any time.
