Equifax Temporary Identity Protection Credit Monitoring Service

Updated November 27, 2024
Since October 2019, UNI members have been temporarily protected by Equifax's Member Protection Credit Watch against identity theft. Registered members could benefit from this service free of charge for up to five years.

This service was provided without obligation on UNI's part and may be suspended, modified, discontinued or extended by UNI without prior notice at its sole discretion.

Important: Please be advised that the five-year period is now coming to an end and that this free service is not being extended by UNI. Equifax informs the registered member by e-mail when the protection period has expired. The member may then, at his or her own discretion, decide whether to continue to be protected by Equifax at his or her own expense, by following the instructions indicated in the e-mail received.
