Credit Score Companies Fight for Number One Spot

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, June 27, 2013 (Press-News.org) BestCreditScoreCompanys.com (BCSC) reviews companies that are evaluated on BCSC's 10-point ranking criteria and then ranked among all of the other companies. The two companies who are currently tied for the number one position with an 8.1 overall score are Identity Guard and Privacy Guard.

Identity Guard is known for being an identity theft company who offers their customers options to view their credit bureaus' score and report along with other credit features like daily credit monitoring. One of the most convenient features Identity Guard has is their layout of membership packages where potential customers can easily read and view the difference between the options. Identity Guard provides services no other credit score company does such as:

- Public record monitoring
- ID verification alerts
- Mobile application
- Personal recovery assistance
- Keyword encryption software
- And more!

Identity Guard focuses their efforts on making sure your personal information that is as important as your credit will stay in the appropriate hands and not get used fraudulently. "Cheaper than my Netflix, and already saved me twice by some woman with my same birthday and middle name from tarnishing my credit! Love them!" said BCSC reviewer Soccrmama76.

Privacy Guard is the second company who also has an 8.1 overall score. They are a company who not only focus on identity protection, but also comprehensive credit reporting and credit monitoring. They want their clients to learn what is going on with their credit, so they provide resources that will help them do that which includes:

- Credit education center
- 3-in-1 credit bureau report
- Dispute assistance
- Online Norton Internet Security
- Document and credit card registration
- And more!

Privacy Guard makes the process of finding and understanding their credit information easy and accessible. "They are a company who really tries to focus on what they can do for their customer first, instead of what their customers can do for them," BestCreditScoreCompanys.com's Public Relations Director Michael Bratton said. "Privacy Guard honestly tries to take care of their customers."

Although both Identity Guard and Privacy Guard have the same overall score, their reasons for not attaining that perfect 10.0 score are very different. Identity Guard has a high Better Business Bureau grade which accounts for 12 percent of the score. On the other hand, Privacy Guard offers all three credit bureau reports and score like Identity Guard, but at a cheaper monthly price. This helps Privacy Guard in 14 percent of the overall score. The last difference BCSC points out is that Identity Guard gives their 14-day trial to customers for free, while Privacy Guard offers their 14-day trial for a one-dollar charge.

Overall, clients and customers can see everything on BestCreditScoreCompany's.com and choose who their number one pick is. "We provide customers all the information they want to know about a credit score company and from there we put it in the customers' hands," Bratton said. BCSC is always looking for more credit score companies to review so consumers can view all of the companies in one place.
