I called to cancel my subscription, I was a day late and was billed. When I called them to cancel I was told that my services would end Immediately, even tho I had paid for another month. This seems like a very bad business practice and I would not recommend them.Customer response

When I was renting an apartment, I used the website ******************************************* to conduct a credit check and background check. After using it, I contacted customer service and was told that it had been successfully logged out and the service had been stopped. But since then, my **** of America credit card has been fraudulently used, and it showed that it was from identityiqcom. There is also a website ************************************ on the Internet, but I have never used it. My old credit card showed that I was charged ***** by IDENTITYIQCOM, but it was unsuccessful, which caused **** of America to freeze my old credit card and issue me a new credit card. Then my new credit card has never been used on the ******************************************* or ************************************ , but today I still received an unknown charge of ***** from IDENTITYIQCOM, no the deduction was successful, but **** of America froze my credit card and told me to wait for a new credit card again.I have not used my new credit card on either website, but they obtained my new card number and tried to charge it. This is a serious information leak and a serious credit card fraud. I need identity force and identityiqcom to completely clear my personal account and personal information and stop charging my credit card.Business response

IdentityIQ is an identity theft protection and credit protection company. I discovered that someone was using my credit card for three years for a membership to their site. The company worked with me to figure this out when none of my information matched their records, only my credit card. The company first offered a one-month refund and canceled the person's account. After speaking with a supervisor, they increased my refund to 3 months. They couldn't give me any information about pressing charges. The company specializing in identity theft protection will not report the person who stole my credit card to use on their site and is putting the onus on my credit card company, which may or may not do more. I don't know if they think this is some smart marketing stunt to get members or show their values and ineptitude toward online financial security and identity protection.Customer response

I recently discovered that my credit card information had been automatically updated on IdentityIQ even after I had reported that my physical credit card had been stolen in 2021.
In August of 2021, I reported to Citibank that my physical credit card had been stolen after a break-in, and I promptly received a replacement credit card. I received the attached email from Citibank reminding me to update my credit card information with IdentityIQ, which I never did because I did not have an account. It is concerning that my new credit card information was somehow automatically updated on the IdentityIQ platform, even though I did not provide this information myself.I don't know if this is a CitiBank issue or IdentityIQ issue. I have asked for both Citibank and IdentityIQ to give me full details of the time period my credit card was used on the site and neither have provided it.
IdentiityIQ did contact me about the complaint and offered to refund 3 months worth of charges; however, Citibank has refunded 12 months of charges, $405.57, but IdentityIQ is still not handling any of the previous charges or given me any information on how/when the account was opened and how long my credit card was charged. I have no details about my charges prior to March 2023. But based on the attached notifications from Citibank, I know the charges began prior to August 2021.

When reviewing IdenitityIQ online I found the attached information. The second paragraph explains my exact situation/ written by someone who claims to be a former employee. This post is from 2 years ago.
********************************************************************
This is unacceptable. I also know that IdentityIQ is constantly used by scammers on *********** Their practices are abhorrent.

After a lot of emails to customer service, ******************** complaints, and copying execs on emails, I was able to get connected to an individual who offered help.
First, they offered a 3-month refund but would not provide me with any additional information, like when the account was opened or any information additional information on the person who did report to the police. They informed me they could only release it with a subpoena. When I pushed back, they said I could send in a copy of my driver's license, and they would follow up with me.
After sending in my driver's license, I got the information about when the account was opened, the address and IP address used by the person who opened it, and the account's creation date. By getting the account creation date, I know the issue.
The account was created immediately after my house was broken into and my credit card was stolen. I reported my card stolen and canceled it. However, my new credit card was automatically updated with IdentityIQ because of their Terms and Conditions AND because Citibank did not change the routing number and account information on their end, which should have happened when it was reissued.
I am still trying to find out what social security number was used in connection with the account to see if my information was accessed.
This information is what I needed to know how and why this charge was an issue. It took way too much pressure and work to find this out. However, my case is now resolved, and I am working with Citibank to resolve the issue on their end.

Identity iq has committed fraud against me and is continuing to commit fraud. Last month I signed up for the resident link service via my apartment portal, y'all took my money and didn't give me thee service I signed up for. Today 01/23/2024 I saw an attempt to collect the monthly fee then I check Experian to see if they was reporting my rent payment according to the plan and they wasn't. I called identity iq today to see what's going on and the manager lied to see told me that I didn't have resident link instead I signed up for credit monitoring which was a bold face lie. I told her to cancel it because I signed up for resident link. I got a confirmation email stating that resident link was canceled even after she told me I didn't have that service. I called back and got the same manager where she then told me another lie stating I didn't enter the correct information to get the rent payment reported even after telling me I signed up for credit monitoring. I need to know why im being lied to even the email stated I signed up for resident link. Identity Iq is baiting and switching to customers on purpose so that we sign up for multiple services which is fraudulent. The manager also refused me service. I want all my phone calls today 01/23/2024 from ********** to get reviewed to see what type of people is working for this company. Bait and switch is illegal and I am going to file a lawsuit for this because I encourage to sign up for a service that was never available. I have attached the cancel email to this complaint. I want the payment of $5000 for the bait and switch that has been done to me and I want that so call manager investigated. Identity iq resident link was added to my Experian account as a new account and this manager still lied to me and told me to call Experian. I want all my personal identifiable information to be deleted immediately, and I don't no permission to sell or share my PII to any other entity.Business response

Locked out of my account. When requesting my log in information with the proper credentials, it claims I have an invalid account. Even using my account number. I'm done paying for this service. I want to cancel my account. It makes NO sense that I cannot log into my account with the proper credentials. I'm paying for security and it doesn't seem like anything is secure. I'll monitor my credit on my own. This is beyond a headache dealing with the inconsistency in service.CREDIT MONITORING ALERT *********,Thank you for choosing IdentityIQ services!

I was a paid member for 2 months while no progress was made.When I cancelled my Identityiq account, it would have been helpful to be informed that I was also signed up for a Credit Glory account and would need to cancel that account as well.Zero progress, zero informed consent, for a high price tag. I guess this was just a $400 gift.Business response
