Credit Monitoring Services
Has anyone had experiences good or bad with different monitoring services?
I was using truecredit.com and have been working on improving my credit. It was at 420 and after 6 mon. it went to 588 and then would not move regardless what I did.
Just today I signed up with IdentityGuard for the same price but you get ID protection along with all three credit reports. Now they show 670 on their score.
I know they use different scoring methods and according to my research IdentityGuard is more closely aligned with FICO than TrueCredit.
Your thoughts??
I am working on improving my credit to get into the rental aspect of investing and some flips.
