help TransUnion Basic Monitoring FAQ
What does TransUnion Basic Monitoring actually watch?
It is centered on changes in data held in your TransUnion credit file and is intended to alert you to basic report activity. The exact alert types depend on the plan terms shown when you enroll.
Does TransUnion Basic Monitoring cover Equifax and Experian too?
The service described here is centered on TransUnion rather than automatically covering every major bureau. Check the plan details if you need monitoring for Equifax or Experian as well.
Will TransUnion Basic Monitoring prevent identity theft or raise my credit score?
Credit monitoring can alert you to changes, but it does not itself prevent identity theft or improve a credit score. If an alert is unfamiliar, review the TransUnion report and contact the relevant creditor promptly.
What should I do after receiving a TransUnion monitoring alert?
First compare the alert with your recent accounts and applications to decide whether the activity is familiar. For an error or suspected fraud, follow TransUnion's current dispute and fraud-reporting instructions and keep records of your communication.
