Just got word that Bak2U, the homegrown anti-theft software firm, has come up with a couple of services to let users back up their contacts and other stuff online – for free.

The deal is aimed at users who don’t want to install their own software on their PCs or deal with USB cables (I can think of my wife, for example, who lost her phone recently, along with all her contacts and SMSes).

How does it work? By backing up your stuff online instead of onto your own PC. It works like Google’s online offerings, plus Bak2U supports a wide range of phones, including makes from Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and Apple.

So go on down to check it out and let us know what you think, and if it’s better than other offerings out there.

    Hi Guys,

    Just to be clear this service is fully owned by Mobyko, BAK2u are just directing traffic to http://www.mobyko.com

    It isn’t clear on the BAK2u home page that this is not their product.

    We are happy for users to be getting benefit from our service, however I wanted to make it clear that we have no commercial relationship with BAK2u.

    Customers using the product will be engaged in a direct relationship with Mobyko.

    Regards

    Jamie Bowler

    Great! My operator charge me money every month to backup my contact to their server. This is really helping. ^^

    Can’t seem to find any privacy statement or disclaimer on their site. I wonder if they’ll make my address book fair game for bank credit card callers, time option sellers and hotel package dealers.
