PrivacyGuard Reviews

I called in to have my account re-activated & told the lady NOT to use my debit card that was in file. I gave her my other debit card number. She did not enter in my info because the 20$ fee drafted from the one I asked her NOT to use!!! Very upset. >:(

Great customer service and inform you on what’s going on. Thank you for helping me on my credit account and I will send customers your way. I do appreciate your email you send on a daily basis and keeping my information self.

I had, and are still having a horrible experience with privacy guard. I have a visa debit PNC bank card that your site will not accept. I've invested money into repairing my credit & I need this site to continue.

For customers whom sign up for this, and not able to get into their account. I have a problem with that. Neither me or my husband cannot get into the account, so we paying for something we can access.

I’m satisfied I like the info that you provide. Keep me up to date on my scores and any and all activity. I have some derogatory info that has been paid in full. I’d like for you to clear up my account immediately.

It's a horrible service. Not many to chose from out there so I have to grin & bare it but my goodness. The people you have working for you are very unknowledgeable and just pass you off like hot cakes. Nothing seems it can be resolved in a short time either.

PrivacyGuard charges me $25 a month which I have no problem with, my issue is simply that I cannot access basically anything except my scores which are vantage scores and are almost worthless, I cannot access my credit reports because it always says there’s an error I cannot access any of the tools etc. I have contacted them on three occasions about this. They always tell me it’s fixed and nothing is fixed. Why I have not canceled my subscription is beyond me. I probably should do that today.

I had PrivacyGuard and realized that I was getting the same information updated more frequently through a very popular FREE service, matter of fact the “FREE SERVICE” actually alerted me to changes on my credit file that my PrivacyGuard alerts still have not picked up!! I cancelled my service. 2 months later the credit restoration company that I am using requested I re-enroll for their ease of use. Once again I have accounts that have been opened/closed that show on “FREE SERVICE” that still do not show or have given me an “alert” on PrivacyGuard. Simply put: OVERPRICED service that underdelivers, also NO MOBILE APP, cumbersome website, will cancel the day I am done my credit restoration and continue to use the FREE, more current services available.

I have been using Privacy Guard for a few months now and I don’t see any results. I need to see some solid results or I’m going to have to cancel my subscription. I have seen other ads about companies that do the same as Privacy Guard for about the same amount of money and much better reviews.

The site is very well laid out and user friendly. I can see all of my information clearly. I do not have any issues with viewing my accounts. I also get an updated report or a clear view of my report every single month which is great.

You Guys are awesome. Wish I could get the $9.99 a month though. But really you guys are awesome and I appreciate the service that you guys are providing for me and others like me who never knew anything about keeping their credit in tact and paying bills on time.

I have enjoyed the services offered by PrivacyGuard. I check my account weekly for any changes that may occur. PrivacyGuard in my opinion is very beneficial for me. PrivacyGuard notifies me of any alerts that appears on my account.

This program has been very helpful to me and keeping up with my credit score and if any new application has been applied I Emmanuel will be notified to be honest I'm happy that I signed up cause they protect my information.

So far, so good! No complaints. It's very helpful to keep up with credit score. I feel this service is very helpful to me and my family! I may be upgrading my monthly subscription at end of month. My credit repair guy recommended this service.

Very good website. Makes it easy to monitor your credit report. I would happily recommend this site to a friend. Since using PrivacyGuard i am able to view items on my credit report and successfully challenge some that are inaccurate. I am on my way to having good credit ratings. Thanks to PrivacyGuard.

PrivacyGuard has been a good choice for me. Only 9.95$ to keep track of my credit scores. Of recommend PrivacyGuard to anyone. Unlike Credit Karma, although it's free. You can only see 2 of your scores. PrivacyGuard keeps you up to date with all three creditors.

Been a member for several years and I am about to cancel because of several incidents (Note my alerts are properly set up on my account). Specifically, I was switching phone service to T-Mobile, they ran my credit, immediately received alerts from Credit Karma and Capital One (free service) nothing from Privacy Guard. My identity was stolen (someone successfully ordered a duplicate driver license in my name with a different address and opened credit). The Culprit added a new address and added a new social security number on my credit file and incredibly, still no alerts from Privacy Guard. Privacy Guard is a completely useless service.

I've used PrivacyGuard for many years now. They are a decent credit monitoring service, not a scam. They will alert you when your credit is run, or when there are any changes to your credit, such as new accounts, etc. You can run your full credit report monthly. If there is fraud they will help you deal with it too. I recently was a victim of credit fraud and thanks to PG I was alerted to it right away and was able to address it immediately. They helped me put credit alerts to all 3 bureaus, and even called the company where my fraudulent account was opened, because they weren't being very cooperative with me. I still had to do the work but they helped and were supportive. You could do all this yourself but they made it easier, and the alerts are invaluable rather than finding out months later or when you get sent to collections over accounts you didn't even know about. I would recommend them.

For a while now whenever I would check my score detail it would say sorry for the inconvenience and to try again later, sometimes it would work other times not. For a few weeks now it's been saying the same thing I couldn't do anything it would say sorry for the inconvenience to where I finally wrote to them and they wrote me back on 12/12/2017 stating someone would call me, it's now 12/23/21017 and I have not received a call, I have been a member for over a year and expect better service, I would have to go on Credit Karma to see my credit report detail whenever PrivacyGuard a service I was PAYING for wouldn't work. I decided to cancel my service online since next week is the time I usually get charged and I'm not paying for service that is not being fully provided to me.

I would not recommend this company as a secure, highly technical place to do business with. Here's what happened: My bank replaced my credit card for security reasons. I went to PG's website to provide the new credit card and found out that my account was canceled. On 11/16, I spoke with a person and they took my new credit card. They told me I would have my account back in 24-48 hours. I also told them that my husband had an account with the same credit card. They said he would have to give them a new credit card as well. They never told me that there can only be one credit card per membership.

I have had a great experience in the short time I have been a member of PrivacyGuard. I have only been with this company a few weeks. I am able to properly monitor the changes or the activity of my credit scores.

Like the idea of bettering my credit. Just a slow process and no results yet makes me nervous for all the money we have paid but still thinking positive and hoping for great news soon so we can have confidence and get on the right track.

I have been a member of privacyguard for the past 10 years. I received a letter that my membership was being cancelled and to call for questions. I called the number and spoke to a privacyguard rep who stated my financial institution and PG were no longer doing business. Huh?? I offered to use another credit card (financial institution) and they told me my membership was already cancelled and they couldnt help me. I am so confused at this point. Payed on time for 10 years straight, good customer, and they dont care one bit. By the way the financial institution that they are referring to is Citibank or Citicard. I would strongly advise not doing business with PG when they cancel your membership due to a decision made with your credit card company, and does not give you any options to continue membership. VERY DISAPPOINTED.

Just wrote a nasty review and now I'm taking it back. I spoke to Customer Service. They were very nice - too nice. They helped me and refunded me the charges. I felt guilty almost leaving, now I may go back... LOL

Received letter in mail from PrivacyGuard cancelling membership and to call toll free number with questions. I called and was told my institution would not accept any more payments from PrivacyGuard. I inquired if I could use another payment vehicle to keep my membership and was told no. Person on phone did not know why members were being cancelled. I think PrivacyGuard should make a full disclosure regarding the sudden cancellation of members for no reason. Instead of refunding one month of payments they should refund loyal members 6 months or one year of payments.

I received a letter Nov 5, 2015 stating my credit monitoring would be cancelled in 1 month. No explanation - just a phone number to call. I called and found the person on the other end very unresponsive to questions. He stated the financial institution I pay through have separated ways. I asked why PrivacyGuard could not just start billing me or at least offer. He stated they could not discuss this at this time. He just kept saying sorry, it is going to be cancelled. I had been a member since 2001. I DID look online before calling. Found, the rate of $69.99 I currently pay for 1 year is $19.99 per month online. I DID ask if this was the reason. He was not able to answer. Poor responses all around.

After 10+ years of being a loyal customer my account is being cancelled because an agreement between PG and my credit card company will no longer be continued. I respect the business decision between the 2 orgs. I do NOT appreciate the fact that PG is not offering an alternative program that would honor and continue my 10+ years' worth of membership benefits. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. They do not respect customers.

I have used and paid for updates and monitoring through Privacy Guard for over 5 years and had my account unexpectedly cancelled. I had just received a positive update via email so Was quite surprised when I logged in only to be told my acct had been cancelled. The customer service rep on the phone claimed I had been sent 3 letters via snail mail and they had received no response from me so they terminated me. I did not receive the letters nor have ever had to renew my account. Renewal came by paying the credit card bill they sent. The rep did not offer to renew me nor was he concerned about the incident.

This is the craziest experience I've ever had! After several weeks, after hearing my account has been cancelled and dealing with the office of the President of PrivacyGuard, I found out that the reason the account was cancelled was because I have an Iowa cell phone number! I'd been a member since 2009 when we moved to Texas. We STILL live there. However, I kept my Iowa cell phone number rather than changing.

Don't waste your money and time on Privacy Guard, to monitor your credit histories. I used the service for a few years and last year they automatically cancelled my service, I called them a few times to reactivate my account and after almost two weeks, their response was "your account has been cancelled and you need to reactivate it"!!! It seems they have no idea what they are doing.
