We are so excited to announce AlertMe™, a new credit-monitoring service designed to help members fight identity theft which is a growing problem that affects millions of Americans. AlertMe™ gives early warning of activity on your credit report. Since credit report activity can be a sign of possible identity theft, early detection can help you catch problems quickly to minimize losses.

AlertMe™ monitors your Experian credit file daily. New accounts, credit cards over the credit limit, and address changes are just a few of the items AlertMe™ monitors. If an activity occurs, AlertMe™ will send you an email alerting you to the activity. You can log into the AlertMe™ Web site to read details about the activity and determine if it is suspicious. AlertMe™ will also send an email to remind you to order your annual free credit reports.

The AlertMe™ cost is $4.25 month. Quarterly and annual plans are available at a reduced rate. To enroll or learn more, simply click on AlertMe™ on the left side of the Virtual Branch login page.
