There is only one solution and that is identity theft insurance.

All other solutions that purport to protect your credit are futile. Although I think some are now offering insurance as part of their guarantee.

I use Zander identity theft insurance. If my identity is ever stolen, they are supposed to take over all the hassles of getting me right. As well as up to a million dollars in damages including legal fees if necessary.

I have heard good things from customers who had their identity stolen. But I can't personally vouch for how well their recovery services work since I havent experienced a theft yet.
