Who We Are – the Companies Behind the ID Theft Assist Product
ID Theft Assist is a partnership between a leading credit bureau (Trans Union) and a respected 24/7 crisis response team (Worldwide Assistance) providing a comprehensive identity recovery system. Our combined experience and knowledge give us the edge in offering identity recovery services more quickly and thoroughly than our competitors.
Trans Union (TU)
One of the partners in ID Theft Assist, is a leading global provider of business intelligence services. As one of the largest credit bureaus in the United States and Canada, TU provides us with direct access to a victim’s creditors. This direct, immediate access to a major credit bureau sets us apart from other identity theft service providers. It enables us to reach your creditors and stop the damage to your credit report within minutes of receiving your authorization. Once your credit is re-secured, we make sure the information is transmitted to the other major credit bureaus.
Worldwide Assistance (WA)
Your 24 hours a day, 7 days a week contact, is the foundation of ID Theft Assist. WA coordinates all the recovery efforts we make to prevent abuse of your identity and to restore your credit and overall identity well-being. WA takes care of every aspect of recovering your identity. They process the paperwork and deal with creditors, credit agencies, and the Federal Trade Commission to report the crime and restore your identity quickly. We have the essential tools at our fingertips, saving you hundreds of hours of frustration.
WA can also provide multilingual service to obtain needed authorization and affidavits from the identity theft victim. They review the victims credit history to identify potential fraud and complete all creditor notifications. Once identity theft occurs, time is critical. WA’s experience and professionalism allows them to process the information quickly in the critical early stages of ID theft recovery.
