The best part of the Experian monitoring was how shitty it was. It never picked up that we'd moved out of California, for example.

The whole thing is such a dumpster fire. I had a phone call with my bank last week where I was like "hey, remember how you woke me up at 3am to ask if I was buying eight $100 gift cards at an Ikea in Perth? And I said TOTALLY NO? you never did pay me back for that." To which the bank said "uhhh apparently we never actually filed a claim either, despite the fact that you texted us back immediately and called us as soon as we opened. Uhm."

You would think that the data integrity industry would be interested in maintaining our faith in data integrity.
