Learned about this from DoC:
Credit Monitoring Service Quizzle To Shut Down On November 16th – To Join Bankratetwhere the DoC post above mentions that BankRate offers its own free monitoring service that appears to be slightly superior to Quizzle’s free monitoring service.

I wasn’t sure how to succinctly indicate that Bankrate’s service offers slightly more than Quizzle’s (I just went with “expanded)” but Bankrate’s credit monitoring and analysis tool is brand spanking new. Since it is new/untested, and likely is just Quizzle’s service with one previously paid feature now made free and only one original added feature (also free), I’m hesitant to call it better without seeing how it performs/how things play out.

As was I, which is why I wrote that it “appears to be slightly superior.” Appearances can be deceiving.
