What is ClearScore Protect Plus?

If you’ve been a victim of online identity fraud, you’ll know the devastating impact it can have. As well as financial loss, you could lose hours phoning credit reference agencies, banks and fraud companies to rectify the situation. That’s not to mention the feelings of vulnerability and fear that victims often experience.

If you haven’t faced identity fraud, consider yourself lucky. With record-high fraud cases and an increasing number of high-profile data breaches exposing private information, now is the time to take proactive steps to protect yourself online.

ClearScore Protect is our free online identity protection service designed to keep you safe online. Every three months, we scan the dark web for leaked passwords linked to your registered email address. If your details are found, we notify you immediately so you can take action, such as changing your passwords and contacting your bank.

Key features:

• Dark web scanning: Searches for stolen passwords every three months.
• Alerts: Notifies you if your email address is found on the dark web.
• Free forever: Includes one email address linked to your ClearScore account.

We know that quarterly dark web scanning isn’t enough for some people. After all, your information could be found on the dark web at any time. We also realise that some people would like us to search for more information than just their email addresses.

So, we created ClearScore Protect Plus, a round-the-clock identity protection service to give you peace of mind. With Protect Plus, you’ll get daily dark web scanning for your information, that way, you can take action against fraudsters sooner.

We’ll search for passwords associated with three different email addresses. We’ll also check for your stolen address, name, phone number, national insurance number and driving licence.

We'll send you an alert when we find a breach of your personal information so you always know where you stand. We’ll also update your credit report daily to help you spot signs of fraud early.

If you do become a victim of fraud, you’ll get access to a live fraud support helpline and a scheduled phone call service. You’ll also get the option to register for a free protective registration with Cifas, which adds additional checks to your credit report (normally £25).

We hope that this service gives you extra peace of mind, with the knowledge that if your data has been exposed, you’ll know about it sooner. And if the worst happens and someone commits fraud in your name, we’ll be here to support you.

You can sign up for Protect Plus for £7.99 a month or a year’s subscription for £59.99. You can cancel easily at any time.
