Equifax

By Terry Savage on September 18, 2017 | Credit/Debt

Good Morning Ms. Savage, I enjoy reading your articles in the Tampa Bay Times. Sunday you discussed "What to know in the wake of Equifax breach. I am a member of Identity Guard and would like your opinion whether or not I am protected from the Equifax breach with my Identity Guard protection. Thank you. Walt

I'm not familiar with that program, but I would suggest putting a freeze on your credit report at all three bureaus -- IF you are not planning to get new credit in the near future.  I know the bureau websites and phone lines are jammed. Try late at night!
