Have had this service for almost a year now. Most notifications have been about sex offenders moving into the area. A few others were about possible email hacks. Sometimes an email notification would arrive and when I'd log on and go to "notifications" button all that would show up were those old email ones. Finally called to find out why these emails are alerting me to old info. The customer service rep said you have to go to the pull down menu at the top of the page and go to each category to see if there's an alert there for any of those categories. Found out that "notification" button only shows "dark web" alerts. So why on earth would there NOT be a main page "notification" button that will show you all your alerts??? Plus the alert that he found for me from that day's email was for an address change that happened over a month ago. Not very timely monitoring. On the plus side he was very helpful. Not sure if we'll keep this service or not going forward.

Signed up beginning of November and Experian still has not been able to verify information. Even faxed items etc. They claim the system verification is done and to check back each week, and each week I get the same story.

I have had the worst experience with Complete ID (so far). I attempted to sign up on Saturday. It said I had to call to talk to someone which I did on Sunday. That call lasted a while and ended with me having to call back on Monday (which could have been stated at the start) On Monday I had to call in 3 times as I was disconnected once and transferred to the wrong department. Then I was finally told that an additional investigation on my sign up had to take place and they would call back in 3-5 days. I am just trying to sign up for service. I have great credit. I just ran a report and it was clean. We are just looking for better protection. I hope these comments help. I’m losing faith in this company as a service.

The two representatives I contacted about a breach of my personal information provided sound advice and recommended actions I had to take to minimice my problem.

We subscribed because someone obtained a credit card in our name and used it to run up a big bill 2500 miles from where we live. So far, we've been impressed by the helpful people we've spoken with. I feels good to know that we have quick access to our credit information and help is just a phone call away if we have further fraud issues.

Unable to verify my identity due to some unknown “glitch” that IT has yet to correct! Very dissatisfied with what appeared to be a seamless process with completing my enrollment. I have been instructed to check weekly for a remedy and I await a call from a Supervisor in Customer Service as to when all is ready for my complete enrollment.

With the focus on detail, I get the information that I need.

I forgot to change the credit card number when I received a new card. The representative that assisted me was very professional and made the change easy to do. I think her name is Ashley. She is a great asset to your company.

If I could leave zero stars I would. Encountered incompetence, unprofessionalism, and lack of follow-through at every turn.

The rep. that I spoke to, Ed, was pleasant and was able to get the process going to fix my problem. TY.

I have been with Complete ID for several years. A couple of years ago they led me by the hand through a terrible identity theft/credit card situation. In the end it was fixed with no out of pocket financial damage to me. Just recently my wife experienced a similar credit theft attempt using her information. She was not included in the Complete ID protection at the time. She/we called Complete ID and were led through the process of getting her signed up and instructed in the steps to get credit freezes and signing her up with her own Complete ID account. A very nasty situation took very little time to make disappear and get her covered to prevent further credit theft situations in the future.

I have been trying to join Costco’s CompleteID identity protection, since Sunday, Nov. 11 and it’s now Thurs. Nov. 15, and have been having difficulties setting my account. Customer service has not been able to resolve the situation. I have not been able to authenticate any of my information like they’ve offered me, and have not received calls back like they promised. I am very disappointed and will cancel any transactions soon for lack of professionalism and support.

I'm pretty happy with this service. The monitoring does pick things up and I the one time I had to call in, I got good info. It's a good value for the money - glad I switched from Life Lock.

The current medical insurance monitoring is limited to 2 account numbers. Since Medicare is issuing new cards with a new account number, provision should be made o monitor the old and new number. Suggest this monitoring be opened to 3 account numbers

I have always found Complete ID very helpful and supportive in answering my questions thoroughly and clearly . I’m very pleased and confident in my choice with Complete ID. ☺️

After the husband enrolled he went to enroll his wife. Complete ID was not able to access the wife's credit file. Called the representative for a solution. Representative accessed the credit file for the wife but was unable to proceed with the enrollment for the wife. Told to wait a week for the system to resolved. Husband promptly cancelled his enrollment.

The gentleman that helped me with logging back in to my account was very nice. When I said thank you and was ready to hang up he asked if he could help with any questions. He stayed on the phone and explained everything to me. Thank You!!!!

Customer service was very good. What I am not happy was the password that I had been using, for some reason , was invalid. Using the Forget the Password option was no help. This option kept telling me the new password did not match. I had to call customer service to resolve it. Frustrating.

I switched from Experian to complete ID because of its competitive pricing. You get what you pay for. Experian offered a more up to date credit report which let's you know how you are doing credit wise.

I was so frightened about the prospect that someone could possibly be using my name or financial info that I tried to do a number of things on my own to make sure. I was having an awful time and then I saw this service in my Costco booklet. I am so glad that I called. I now know just where I am at and, thankfully, it was all a false alarm. Huge weight lifted! I had so many questions that I am surprised I did not wear those nice people out who were on the phone with me. Every one of your customer service people were so nice, so patient and so helpful. I even wrote down their names so you would know who they were and how grateful I am to them. The first one I spoke to was Logan. The second person I spoke to was Patrick. The third person I spoke to was Edwin. You need to know they were very kind to me. Thank you for being there!

I signed up after I experienced an identity theft. I am impressed with the online reporting, and even more impressed with the accessible and knowledgeable employees who helped me deal with the many issues surrounding an identity theft.

The agent quickly took care of my concerns......she was efficient and knowledgeable.

I had an alert that an email account was compropmised. It was an issue that was not a direct threat on my identity, BUT, it is important to take care of the small things before they get critical. The gentleman who guided me through the issue was clear, concise and reassuring that this was not an attack on my identity. The issue was resolved by an email password change. This is the time to deal with identity issues, not when thieves have taken everything! Thank you!

I received a GoBank.com debit MasterCard in the mail. I called Complete ID that evening. They took all relevant information. The next day a rep, from Experian, called back. We called the bank together. GoBank must be getting a lot of calls. They had a fraud line option and the rep closed the account immediately. The service from Complete ID was very helpful and quick. Glad I signed up with them.

Things aren’t working well. The app has been unable to load any content or reports or scores for several days now. Three calls to customer service and they’ve said it’s a known problem and they’ll call me when it’s fixed. So far, nothing. They also offer access through a web browser but it’s had its own issues and I’m paying for a service with an app, I want the app to work. Still, after unsuccessful attempts to buy more updated three bureau report through the app, I logged in online and tried the same with no success. A few days later, I saw they had charged my credit card anyway and I called customer service and was told the report was available online now, which it suddenly was (and dated two days after I had tried to buy it). During my first two calls to customer service neither rep was able to pull a report either, though they did offer to do so at no cost since the app wasn’t working. Bottom line: If they don’t fix the app soon there’s no reason to keep their service. Now, for $8.99/month as a Costco exec member, I think their offering is competitive assuming things are running. Other services give you more. For example, I had Privacy Guard before Complete ID and PG issued a three bureau credit report every month at no extra charge. Complete ID wants $9.99 each time. They do give you one “free” report per year but so do all three credit bureaus, so nothing special there.

Great registration experience...easy. Appreciated by EOD the initial report on all aspects of my information submitted for monitoring.

Credit Scores are not inflated because they are calculated on partial data similar to creditKarma.

Just cancelled. Disappointed in Costco to promote and offer such a bogus product. I but a fraud alert on my credit report at Experian's web site and was notified by Capitol One CreditWise the next day that there was a change made to my report. The information came from Transunion. Incompetent and inexcusable that Complete ID would not have the change and update to my account immediately. A big waste of money IMO. You could be wiped out waiting for a notice from them.

I had a notice that a credit card was issued in my name from completeid on Saturday. I called completeid and a yawning gentleman gave me incorrect numbers to call to stop what was happening. The 'restoration' team doesn't work on the weekend when in fact fraud most likely occurs. They were supposed to call me back. I have called every day since last Saturday and no one has called as yet. I have spent over 22 hours online and on the phone trying to get this resolved. You cannot every reach experian equifax or transition by telephone. Two our of three of these credit bureaus websites were down between Saturday evening and sunday. So a credit card was issued since it was first reported with a credit line of $5k. Completeid was of NO HELP AT ALL. At this moment I just hung up on the supervisor at completeid who gave me the same I'm sorry story and said she would have someone call me immediately. That was hours ago. Don't bother with this company and am shocked at CostCo for offering them as a service.
