Yes, you can use a credit monitoring service for that purpose. They would send you credit alerts periodically whenever there is any change. Moreover, these companies can help prevent any identity fraud as they would alert you on any unusual activity on your report. However, the prices for such services vary widely, so it would be wise for you to compare both the services and charges before enrolling with one.

All the three credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and Trans Union offer credit-monitoring services. Whenever any kind of changes takes place in your credit file, such as opening of a new account or credit inquiry, you will be notified through the service.
Yeah, it' s true that the cost to set up credit monitoring service varies so, you will have to make the right choice.
