months. You'll get a credit summary with "at-a-glance" highlights.

Daily Credit Monitoring
LINK TO: It's important you know who's checking your record and what information they may add.
Credit issuers, banks, employers, landlords, and insurance companies can legally access your credit
history to determine your credit line, insurance rates, and loan eligibility.
The Daily Credit Monitoring service tracks changes to your credit record that's on file with one of
the national credit reporting agencies on a monthly basis. We’ll send you a quarterly ‘all-clear’
notification if there are no changes to your record in a 3-month period.*

Triple-Bureau Personal Credit Score
LINK TO: In addition to your Credit Report, you'll also get your personal Credit Score, Analysis
& Comparison based on information from all three of the national credit reporting agencies.
All the available financial data about your payment history, credit usage, length of credit history,
and any bankruptcies, is compiled into a model that calculates a score between 350 and 850 — the higher
your score, the less of a credit risk you are. Credit Analysis will help you understand your score. It
could mean the difference between getting more affordable loans in the future, or not.
