+1 but only on 1 out of 5 claims in the family
I got it for 2 out of 4
If it benefits even just one fellow DDFer, its worth posting it.

Got it as well for self and spouse.

Does credit karma count as credit monitoring?  How about free service that comes with Amex, Capital One, or BOA cards?

Funny thing will be if they check with these companies and are able to find out whether you're a customer or not that in itself would be a breach ;D

Does Chase Credit Journey qualify?
How about Credit Karma Free Monitoring?
Common sense is not a gift, it is a punishment.
Because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

There didn't seem to be any description about what kind of service qualifies, so why not free service?

Does it make sense they would reimburse you for something that is free?
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Maybe not, but nowhere does it say that you must have a paid credit monitoring service to qualify.

Are they not also paying you for exposing your id?

I guess we don't use common sense anymore?

Common sense isn't too common
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Different issue.
Is there a different fund that is paying for that?

My question was if it qualifies - as in is it considered a valid/legit credit monitoring service. free vs. paid is irrelevant
