Loud Siren, brought to the market by Debix, is
the cheapest service that we have reviewed in this entire category. At
just $9.95 for a full year's membership, we were excited to check out
what Loud Siren had to offer. Debix is one of the biggest players in
the commercial identity theft protection market, and has recently
branched out into the consumer market by purchasing Loud Siren. The
multi-million dollar US based firm offers the cheapest, but
unfortunately also one of the weakest services to its users, and we
were pretty disappointed by what Loud Siren actually gave us for our
money.
In terms of features, it's undeniable that Loud Siren
is fairly limited in its offerings to its consumers. The mainstay of
the Loud Siren service is the provision of fraud alerts on accounts
with the major credit bureaus. While this service does provide some
advanced warning of the potential threat of identity theft, and can in
many cases stop the crime from occurring, this does not stop those
elements of identity theft and associated fraud that do not happen
through the channels of a normal credit application. We were
disappointed that Loud Siren did not offer web scanning, by performing
daily searches of public websites, trading websites and public records
for the protected data (Social Security Numbers, Name, Address, Credit Card Numbers, etc.)
of its members. If Loud Siren were to offer a useful service such as web-scanning, it would undoubtedly encourage more prospective customers to sign up.
A redeeming feature of
Loud Siren is its post-fraud support. Loud Siren is particularly
accomplished at putting its users in contact with a range of specialist
identity theft response organizations, which can help speed along the
recovery process. We couldn't help but feel that despite Loud Siren
being considerably cheaper than many other services, it really didn't
offer enough to actually warrant going through the process of signing
up to the service!
Loud Siren really doesn't seem to do a
great deal for the $9.95 per adult member. Although we normally praise
services that offer watered-down alternatives to the major players (at
a significantly reduced price, of course), because they open up the
market to a wider audience, in this case we can't help but feel that
users won't really benefit a great deal from what Loud Siren is
offering. We would definitely recommend checking out other services
that, while often more expensive, will provide a wide
range of features that will contribute to a far more encompassing
service. For comparison, check out LifeLock, our highest rated service
in this category, which (though considerably more expensive) offers a
much more developed service, with a range of useful additional
features. If you still feel like giving Loud Siren from Debix a go,
