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.

 PlanFirst-year costCost 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 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.

      Signing up for Lifelock was a huge mistake and reading these other reviews confirms, this is essentially a scam service, with no customer service or even product service. I signed up due to a big employer discount and received the welcome email notifying me my service is now active and to follow the link to setup my login. I setup the account and login where it tells me I have no active subscriptions.

      I called customer service and the only thing she can do is transfer me to sales lol. She cannot look anything up on my account or even begin to look into the issue she is certain the only department that can help is sales. Following her suggestion, I talk to sales, who would have guessed the only thing they can do is sell me a new subscription. However, I already have an account and subscription, they just don't work and have no ability to help. Now the only thing I can do is go through my employer to cancel the subscription amd I guess I'm out whatever they already pulled from my paycheck? This service is a complete scam and likely the cause of identity breaches rather than protection.

      I was a LifeLock customer for many years, around 10yrs. Over those years in the beginning they notified me once for a credit application at Kohls. Which was my wife application. BUT that was the only notification I received through those years. During that time I got new credit cards, bought multi houses with mortgages and car purchases with loans. Not once did they notify me of those actions. So what are they really doing? Who knows.

      So LifeLock is not LifeLock any more it is Gen Digital inc. co-headquartered in both Prague, Czech Republic (EU) and Tempe, Arizona (USA). Yah that's where I want my personal info. In addition to that when you call customer service you get to talk to India. That's the country where a large majority of hacker and scammers are. Nothing like letting the fox into the hen house. Run away from this company as fast as possible. Their only concern is their bottom line.

      I have been a customer for many years. Today, I went to sign into my account and it tells me I need to enter the eight digit code from my authenticator app. I have never used an authenticator app, ever. I had already initiated two factor authentication, but it did not give me a choice to receive a code. After two hours on the phone with customer service, they were unable to get me into my account. Unbelievable then, they tell me I cannot cancel my subscription until a partial refund has been processed. I'm glad I'm not going to continue to waste money on this company since their technical support is incompetent and incapable of helping me with a code to get into my account. I can only imagine what would happen if I had a real emergency.
