Frequently Asked Questions
Is this
service necessary for me?
About 15,000 to 20,000 communication devices inclusive of PDA phones
and mobilephones and work related devices like laptops, PDAs, USB flash
drives are lost every year in Singapore. On top of it, there are also
numerous gadgets like iPod mp3 players, digital cameras that are stolen
from owners.
BAK2u makes it easy getting the stolen items back to you (BAK2u)
through anti-theft software for laptops, PDA phones, mobile phones and
any USB storage devices, all at only a small fraction of the cost of
the gadgets.
My gadget is
the latest model! Will someone bother to return to me?
Which is worse? To lost a gadget with no identification or with some
form of ID?
There are many items that are returned to the police posts, lost and
found departments of various organizations but many are not returned to
the owner due to the lack of identifications. Also with anti-theft
software installed in the device, it increases the chance of a return
when stolen when the alert is sent from the thief's own contact number
or IP address.
What happens
when I lose something?
If you have pre-installed the Anti-theft software in your device, you
can wait for the SMS text or the email alert.
How does
BAK2u know what items are mine?
When you activate the BAK2u service on our website, you register your
contacts to the device.
Why don't I
just write my name on my valuable items?
Why compromise your personal information which you have no idea on
whose hands they fall into?
How do I know
if PhoneBAK BB works?
When the finder replaced the owner's SIM card
with
his, PhoneBAK will silently send a SMS to the pre-defined mobile phone
number.
It is important to test out the pre-defined local number by simply
interchanging with another SIM card first before actual use.
How do I
install the software?
There will be a step-by-step installation guide included.
Are there any
technical or local support?
BAK2u has presence in Singapore and various countries through our partners to provide the
necessary supports, including documents for owners to report to police
for non-recoverable cases too.
Can I use the
same program for any other devices?
Each copy of PhoneBAK BB program is licensed to only 01 registered
device. It is therefore non-transferable.
Who will
recover the lost device?
As the device has been pre-configured with contact numbers, the
receiver of the alert can contact the finder directly and make the
necessary arrangement or can report to the police to be dealt with too.
How would
BAK2u deal with non-recoverable cases?
Refer to the police in the event when the finder does not want to
return the phone. Save the SMS alert received as evidence of the theft.
In the event, that there is no sms received to the pre-defined mobile
number after the phone is lost, the device could have been lost and not
found.
