Save money on ringtones and games

If your mobile suddenly  dies, you don't only lose your numbers, but also expensive games and  ringtones. Mike Wainscott of Milton Keynes has two good suggestions to help save them.

  Tip 1) Send all extras (tones, games etc) to a friend or two, and reciprocate the arrangement. This divides the cost and you can simply ask them to send them back to you if your phone dies.

Tip 2) Firebox.com, and the gadget type shops, sell keyfobs that you can copy your sim card onto, saving the details as  a " back up" .

  * SimBackUp fob, £9.95 plus £3.95 p& p, www.firebox.com, 0870 241 4248 (premium line).
