In addition the Credit Pros offers a family member discount, competitor discount,  Military discount, and fixed income discount.

Assuming you think that a credit repair service can help you, it makes sense to compare The Credit Pros to similar companies.

The membership prices for The Credit Pros stand out. At the lowest level, you spend $19 per month and get very little in return. You can already get one free credit report each year from TransUnion. With The Credit Pros, you get them more frequently, but it’s unclear how that helps improve your credit.

You get significantly more services for $69 per month. If you want a professional to help you take control of your finances, you need tools to build a budget and make a plan for debt repayment. Access to a legal team could help, too.  Contact the company for more information if that influences your decision.

The Prosperity Package and Success Package memberships increase your monthly cost by $50 to $80. In return, you don’t get much more than a medication plan. It might help you save money if you take expensive medications. Otherwise, you might want to save your money and stick with the $69 Money Management plan. It seems to give you the most for the cost.

The Credit Pros provide customer services via phone and email. The West Palm Beach office accepts calls from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. (EST), Monday through Friday, 855-664-2454. Most of their clients seem very happy with the company’s responsiveness.

It looks like The Credit Pros have a reputation for helping their clients improve their credit scores and records. Most online reviews say that the company does its job well.

It is worth mentioning that most of the membership plans probably will not meet your needs. The lowest tier doesn’t have enough services for effective credit monitoring and repair. The highest tiers cost more but don’t provide services directly related to managing credit.

The average person looking for long-term credit repair will probably want to choose the Money Management tier. At $69 per month, it’s one of the most affordable credit repair options you can find. All of your credit monitoring comes exclusively from TransUnion, though. You might not get a complete view of your credit without information from the other two credit bureaus.

Still, this is an affordable option that many people say has worked well for them.
