Have to mention though, that under Family Pricing sub title, you wrote the Trusted ID family plan was $13.46, they must have changed cost because its now $20.00 a month.

Also, one of the ads on the Seniors best theft protection article page, was a flashing ad for “ID Watchdog” true id protection. Barf barf, etc.
Is this company new? Will you do research on it an write about it? And, include it in the reviews?

Still in limbo about signing with anyone. Trusted ID seems the way to go for wife and I both seniors. Will wait to sign though, until you relay a message about ID Watchdog id theft services. Who knows, it may be a “dog gone good deal!”

You have done good writing these reviews, we thank you for all the hard work you do writing these reviews, and most importantly, answering everyone’s questions!

Thanks

If you’re looking for a family plan to cover both you and your wife I’d recommend TrustedID’s family plan. In addition, since you’re a senior they offer a few benefits designed for seniors like the Medical Benefits protection.

Now this service isn’t a credit monitoring service and while those are more expensive, they do offer near real-time updates to your credit reports. If you’re looking to stay within a budget, I ‘d go with ProtectMyID from Experian. They don’t offer family pricing but for you and your wife, you’d be paying only about $5.00 more per month compared to TrustedID’s family pricing.

However, TrustedID will scan for your credit card numbers, social security numbers, bank account, name and addresses so while it’s not exactly covering your credit report in real time, it does offer you a fair amount of coverage.

I hope I haven’t confused you more. Send me an email at gregmckeon54@gmail.com if you have any more questions or ask it right here.

Thanks for your comment, I’ve been meaning to write an article for seniors and you’ve inspired me to get it done!.

Appreciate any suggestions or ideas on this. Thank You for putting out such great material and information for the public to read and help pick these plans!

Sorry for the late reply but I’ve had to think about this one for awhile. I’ve come to the conclusion that if you already have Lifelock, it’s not really worth it to go to the trouble of canceling and getting another plan unless you feel you are at heightened risk for identity theft.

The more I look into Lifelock’s Command Center, I am impressed but the lack of credit file monitoring still bothers me. Nonetheless, it is true Lifelock’s new features will protect you in ways normal credit file monitoring services can’t.

Hope this helps.

The only reason Lifelock didn’t make it into any of my top picks is the lack of credit file monitoring. There’s no way to completely 100% prevent identity theft so (in my opinion) credit file monitoring is the best way to prevent identity theft from getting out of hand.

Lifelock recently launched a new feature called Command Center™, which offers additional features like sex offender registry reports and public database scanning, which is great but unfortunately, credit monitoring is still lacking.

I’ve been tasked with writing an update on Lifelock and it will be ready soon but John Oh has written a detailed review on Lifelock which you read here.
