LifeLock services
LifeLock is considered to be an industry leader in providing individual and business identity theft protection. They offer three different package options, from basic monitoring to full protection and recovery of your money or identity. LifeLock is recognized by the Online Trust Honor Roll and partnered with the digital security software company Norton.
LifeLock notifies you if your information is compromised by monitoring major data breaches, credit reporting agencies and the dark web. The company offers 24-hour assistance, and if your identity is compromised, LifeLock will assist you by providing lawyers to help litigate your case, plus reimbursement for your expenses and lost property.
LifeLock is a membership organization where customers can choose between membership levels. If you are looking for identity theft protection for your business, you can call the company for a quote.
LifeLock plans and pricing
LifeLock provides identity theft and digital security protections at three membership levels: Select, Advantage, and Ultimate Plus. Each plan offers an introductory rate, with a price increase after the first year. The chart below provides an overview of LifeLock cost by plan.
| Plan | First-year cost | Cost after first year |
|---|---|---|
| Select | $9.99/month | $14.99/month |
| Advantage | $19.99/month | $24.99/month |
| Ultimate Plus | $29.99/month | $34.99/month |
Select: Offers $25,000 in reimbursements for stolen funds and security for five electronic devices, plus the regular LifeLock benefits.
Advantage: Offers $100,000 in reimbursements for stolen funds, security for 10 devices, bank and credit card alerts and alerts for crimes in your name.
Ultimate Plus: Offers $1 million in reimbursements for stolen funds, security for an unlimited number of devices, bank and credit card alerts, 401(K) investment alerts, alerts for crimes in your name, and reports from all three credit bureaus.
How does LifeLock work?
Most of the time, LifeLock members will be able to forget they are even customers — which, according to LifeLock, is the point. As a LifeLock customer, you can rest assured your data is secure.
Once you join, you simply make monthly payments and the company closely monitors your information. When something suspicious occurs, you are either alerted by phone, text or a notification from the LifeLock app.
If you want to engage with the company further, they offer a credit report, an online portal to show your profile, and notifications about any data breaches that may affect your information.
Do we recommend LifeLock?
LifeLock has been the industry leader in identity theft protection for more than a decade. The company boasts nearly 5 million members and returned millions of dollars in assets to people who have had their identities or property stolen. Although a price tag up to $34.99 a month may not be as cheap as other companies, it does provide the broadest range of coverage with a company known to maintain a high level of service.

I have been a subscriber before Norton became a partner. Alerts have been good and helpful, as have the added Norton features. I also have the mortgage protection feature with my subscription. I do wish the on-site support were US-based. I often get an agent with a strong foreign accent which makes it difficult to follow easily. As far as identity theft resolution, I have not found it to be as advertised. I ended up having to do a lot of the legwork myself, but finally got things resolved. Be aware that recovering lost funds isn't cut and dry. I had a situation of a company falsely representing itself as a Lifelock/Norton entity, and I was initially swindled out of $3K for a service contract. I realized I had been cheated about 30 minutes later, talking to Norton/Lifelock. I was told to cancel the transfer, but I could not get reimbursed becayse I gave the imposter my account info.
I did cancel the purchase, with my bank, but two days later an unauthorized transfer was made by the imposter company. I did file a dispute with the bank, but three months later, the bank ruled in the favor of the imposter. Norton/Lifelock was of no help to me, and I was out $3K, even though an unauthorized transfer was made, because the business had my account information. It did not matter that I did not authorize the withdrawal. The $1M recovery guarantee means nothing if you are swindled, only if anonymously hacked, evidently. Keep all documentation and correspondence if you file a claim, you'll need it. I still have a bad taste in my mouth with the ID theft feature, but the monitoring is peace of mind.

What a mistake I made signing up for Lifelock! Their customer service is an absolute mess, the dashboard services like financial monitoring don’t work and their customer service is unable to resolve technical problems. When you call the help line you get a never ending AI helper and getting to a real person is not easy. Every time you call they offer a web browser link to ‘track your conversation’, but when you say ‘yes’, the link is never sent to your phone. And on top of it all, when they need to escalate the issue they insist on asking for your SSN (even after online verification). When I refused to give my SSN to a random uninformed customer service agent in India, they refused to escalate my issue. After only having the ‘Total’ coverage for 4 days I canceled and demanded a full refund.

I have the Lifelock Total package and have had lifelock for over a decade. I have never had to call with an issue until today and it was a horrible experience. The persons I talked to were of no assistance, spoke poor english and didn't listen. They had their procedures and they would not veer off course. I have had several bank and credit card accounts hacked into and needed help on how to stop it. The only thing they did was tell me to call the banks and credit card agencies to dispute the charges (which I had already done).
When I explained that I needed help on how to prevent these charges, which were happening daily, from happening anymore, the only response was them telling me that they couldn't help me and trying to sell me their latest package addition of device coverage! She told me that the only thing lifelock would do is monitor the credit cards that I linked and notify me of suspicious activity which I already get for free from the credit card companies and banks. I am truly questioning why I have lifelock when they won't give you assistance on what you need to do to prevent future fraud or even let you talk to the fraud department. The customer "no-service" agents that I talked to put me on hold for long periods and would not allow me to talk to any identity restoration agents. I have put in for a consultation using their online consultation request and if this doesn't net any better results, I will be looking for identity and theft protection elsewhere.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Folks, the customer support is beyond awful. You will NEVER speak with an English speaker because… they cost money. If your issue gets resolved.. great. If not, that’s great too. The ONLY issue here is… did Lifelock save money by outsourcing and offshoring to the Philippines? Save your money, people. They will go to the ends of the earth not to talk to you. I will never renew. Total waste of time.
Hmmmm wow…. One million dollars in ID theft recovery costs. Have you thought about the fact that if you can even speak with someone how it would be trying to receive even one dollar of that? You’re better off not even trying. Images of a team of experts hovering over and supporting you dance through your head while enrolling and reviewing their deceptive advertising. It’s all AI and automation, folks. You’ll be completely on your own. I want my money back.

I have never been so put off by a service. We have been customers for years (10 +). I received a call about a payday loan being applied for using my information (6.9.26) . I immediately called Lifelock, this is where the issues really started. When you call in you are immediately directed to an obnoxious automated client service loop. Finally I was able to speak to two different people in the India Call Center. I was calm at first, explained that I could not understand him, said PLEASE multiple times. "Please let speak to a supervisor" Please speak slower" ..He laughed at me twice, and when I explained six times why I wanted to speak with a supervisor he hung up. I tried again today, and another horrific experience. My wife and I will be canceling our expensive ($1000 a year) service. I NEVER received help.

I’ve been a LifeLock member for at least 10+ years. At first, I was very happy and satisfied with them. Then, a few years ago, my bank account and financial information would continually get disconnected from LifeLock. I would have to reconnect multiple times, only to be disconnected hours or days later. I detected identity theft and fraud myself through reviewing my own data, hearing nothing from LifeLock. I reached out to them to ask why my accounts continue to be disconnected and spoke to someone who could barely speak English. Needless to say, this issue was never resolved. When I realized they’re offshoring, I was done. So tired of US companies offshoring American jobs for nothing more than cheap labor. The quality of service obviously suffers and they deserve to lose loyal customers.

Absolutely abysmal customer support. I've been a customer for many years. I applied for a credit card today and received a Life Lock alert about a hard inquiry on my credit. I attempted to log in to my account bu my 2 factor authentication codes were not working. Following the directions of the support chatbot, I tried to log into my account to retrieve a "verification" code.
Of course, I could not log in to my account to retrieve the "verification" code because my 2 factor authentication was required to log in to the account. So, no 2 factor code, and no way to retrieve a verification code. That's just poor design. Speaking with a (Overseas) customer service rep, I was told that I would have to create a different email account and they could set up a new Life Lock service on the new account. If I'm going to set up new service, I'm going to do it with a company that offers better customer support. I requested account cancellation.

Have yet to speak with someone to help with initial onboarding. When you do get through to someone they speak very broken English and hard to understand. While navigating language issues, it took over 20 minutes for them to verify my account (the account they are supposedly monitoring). I have only had the membership for a week, but am cancelling. If I am unable to get through to someone to ask a simple question, I have no faith that I would be able to connect with someone or get a problem resolved if there was a break to my security.

Credit coverage not good. My credit card was run up and defaulted on during a long term stay in the hospital. I had no way of knowing. My score went from 850 to 602. Lifelock refuses to help. My credit card company doesn't care about the hospital bills proving my stay. The government is of zero help. Don't believe their adds for help to resolve theft. Beware.

I have been with LifeLock for about 15 years and this review is based solely on my experience during this time and is my opinion. The customer service experience has been nothing but frustrating and almost stroke inducing. Every time I have had the need to call and speak with a human, I end up with high blood pressure. It is unlike anything that I have ever experienced in my life. My renewal recently came up and I tried one last time to call them and discuss my options. The initial person could not answer any question and clearly was not listening to anything I had to say. When I asked to be transferred to her supervisor..guess what, I got disconnected.
When I called back and I learned that she documented something completely inaccurate in my account notes claiming to have "helped me" and providing pricing options. Needless to say, I am not renewing. What a shame because their services for monitoring are good but their customer service reps are the worst on the planet in my opinion. No customer should have to experience that level of incompetence when they pay for a service.

Norton/LifeLock’s customer service is non existent. After spending at least 10 hours trying to figure out why I could not get online with my account I finally decided to call Norton so I could talk to a person. Spent another hour searching their website and the web for a customer service phone number. They don’t have one damn number on their website and I HATE chatbots! By that time I had had it with Norton and decided the only way I could get a hold of a person was filing a BBB complaint which I did. I highly encourage everyone to do the same. Finally a live person called, who I had a difficult time understanding. By the time a Norton CS person called I had somehow figured out what my problem was. I told the CS rep I had solved my problem but am extremely displeased with their non-existent CS and lack of a live person CS phone number included in their Contact Us information.
Complete resolution of my BBB complaint will be that number being added immediately to the Norton/Lifelock website. I have been a Lifelock subscriber for over a decade and will be looking for another company after this nightmare. Norton wants to charge premium dollars for non existent CS. No thanks. Also bring CS reps back to this country! I get tired of having to ask a very polite person from another country to repeat themselves or speak slower because I can’t understand them. Norton/Lifeock if you want our money and business you need to start listening to your customer's request.

Anyone that gives LifeLock a 5 star rating, I would bet, has never tried to get service from these people. I had my credit card breached, someone tried to change a password on another of my accounts, and my computer was hacked; all on the same day. So, I called Life-Lock. Their website was no help. They just run you through lots of pop-up ads to upgrade service. When you push "Contact Us" you get a robot that does not provide the options you need. When you ask to speak to an agent, they refuse, and keep asking the same irrelevant questions over and over. I was on the phone for well over an hour until I finally got a live agent.
I had already cancelled my credit card and also the account that had the password change request. I wanted to know what to do about my computer hack. I was told they could scan my computer to see if anyone could still access it. Then I was transferred to six different people, they didn't forward the info I had given them so I had to repeat the same info each time, and then they said it was the wrong department and transferred me again. When I was finally sent to the right department, they said they would charge me to do the computer check. I have been paying them $130 a year for the past eight years and never asked them for anything. The one time I ask for help, they are going to charge me the same as Geek Squad would charge. Why have I been paying these people. I cancelled my account.

I've had a LifeLock Subscription for over 7 years, and have not needed their help until this year. I recently received a fraudulent 1099 in the mail from a ride share company which I have never driven for, so I reached out to Lifelock to help me through this issue. First, their phone system is extremely unhelpful, and keeps directing you in a circular conversation and tries to get you to hang up the call. Finally, after begging the system to allow me to speak to a human, I was connected to a call center in the Philippines after a 20 min hold. The woman on the other end had a difficult time communicating with me (and as a side note, the phone system ACTUALLY encourages you to text their reps because they know there is a language barrier). When I explained my situation to the rep, she asked me clarifying questions which she kept repeating back to me incorrectly. I had to correct her on numerous occasions.
I also got the impression that she was using ChatGPT or another software to guide her responses, although I cannot confirm this. She also told me to contact the IRS and the ride share company to confirm that my identity was stolen. Confirm it was stolen?! I guess the 1099 that I was sent wasn't proof enough. And when I asked what other proof they needed so I could send it to her, she kept repeating that they needed confirmation. WHAT kind of confirmation other than a fraudulent 1099?! I also had to explain to her what information was contained on the 1099 even though it's a basic form here in the States, so she clearly didn't know what it was. She also gave me INCORRECT guidance. She wanted me to ask the IRS if the form was fraudulent. ARE YOU KIDDING?! How are they going to know? I need to be the one to tell them...
THE WORST PART? Instead of helping me or even doing as little as giving me guidance (which they did neither) after over 7 years of being a customer and paying Lifelock thousands of dollars to help "restore" my identity IF and WHEN I needed their service, THE REP HUNG UP ON ME. I didn't say anything rude nor did I get vulgar or obscene like others may have done. She hung up on me because I kept asking to speak with an actual restoration specialist (which she was not).
LifeLock itself is a scam and I feel super stupid for paying for this service. Instead I hopped on the internet and found a national non-profit agency in the US which was able to do more for me in a 10 minute phone call than Lifelock was able to do for me in the last 7 years. Do yourself a favor when considering to pay for a subscription to Lifelock - consider that there are many FREE non-profit agencies that are willing to help (just make sure they are legit before calling). And you can also call the credit bureaus and request to lock your credit. You can also ask your bank on how to get free annual credit reports. Remember, WHEN YOU NEED LIFELOCK MOST IS WHEN YOU'LL FIND OUT YOU DIDN'T NEED LIFELOCK AT ALL!

I paid for a year of Lifelock after my bank account was compromised - what a mess, hackers got ahold of my email and were sending me horrible messages and I panicked and paid Lifelock. What did I get for the my money. Absolutely nothing. Zilch. My email was again hacked, no notice from them, no protection. The really wry thing about this is that they turned around and charged me an auto renewal of over $300.00. Norton/Lifelock became the hackers! I never signed up for renewal, but they auto-renew everyone and it's not easy to figure out how to stop it.
On the phone they were little help until one day I finally spoke to someone who could a) understand me, b) gave a damn. I was issued a refund that day. But it didn't go through... Again I call. They young lady I spoke with said they didn't know how to issue the refund right. So, again I call my bank. They had no idea how to help someone with limited English figure this out - but lo and behold the next day the funds were in my account.
Here's the thing - you have to stay on Lifelock to get this done. You have to annoy the hell out of them and keep calling until you find that one person who can help you. I must have called customer service a dozen times - but I was not about to lose over $300 to a useless service that never did one thing to protect me. Keep calling. Worst company ever.

Worst customer service I have ever experienced. All reps from India and hard to understand. It started with not being able to get online. When I tried to reset my password they send you an email with a code. Problem is you must put in the code with 20 seconds and you don’t get the email for 30 seconds. When I went in to customer support you have a menu to deal with and after several attempts I got a real person that could not fix the issue. I decided to just cancel. I was transferred 3 different times after answering several questions. Finally got to the right person who needed email, phone number last 4 of SS and year born. I was on hold between transfers for over 30 minutes

I have been a customer for many years. I cannot access my account in their app or on the web. I have called their tech support in Asia three times. I was promised a callback from Tier Two support, but I have not received one. As of today, they are now telling me it will be another five-day unit until the problem is resolved, according to an agent named Gurjot. I hope no one else has to go through this process. So far, 1.5 hrs of wasted time.

I was a customer for many years. My account was canceled without any communication, yet I continued to receive updates and other alerts. The only way I found out was when I could no longer log in. Not exactly a great way to keep customers.

Been having issues with one of my accounts with LifeLock. My issue started Aug. 2025 to date with 26-phone calls to them (LifeLock) to correct. They correct for a few days but then back to Off-Line. I have been told that the issue/s have been directed to Level-3 time to correct and they call me, UNTRUE!! Called again today and the supervisor stated I will receive a phone call back within 3-hours, wrong again. Account is still offline!!! Been with LifeLock now for 15-plus year but since Norton took over it went downhill. Do not sign up and pay all this money for provoked headaches.
