Everyone has lost or dropped and broken a mobile phone at some stage in their life. The sickening crunch as it hits the pavement isf often followed, moments later, by the dreaded realiszation that maybe the insurance package wasn’t such a bad idea after all !

However, insurance doesn’t come cheap and it doesn’t stop the huge inconvenience of being without a phone for a few days, let alone all the contacts, photos and messages you might have lost.

Best solution? Don’t drop or lose your phone in the first place. Enter myBunjee, an ingenious device that slips over and secures any mobile phone on the market, preventing it from hitting the deck by way of a coiled elastic bunjee cord that clips to your belt, jacket or bag.

Weighing-in at a mere 10g, costing no more than a very affordable £6.95 and available in a range of colours, myBunjgee is ideal for literally anyone who owns a mobile phone – active kids, busy mums, forgetful grandads, cyclists, ravers, delivery drivers, extreme sports fans, yachties, the list is endless. myBunjeeTM has even been ordered by several regional police forces and fire brigades and is even making its way across the globe; the product is now available from outlets.  in Australia and  Europe, as well as leading American retailer The Container Store

Said Emma Jones, the entrepreneur behind myBunjee: “I’m a little clumsy and wanted something that could stop me from constantly dropping my phone, especially when I was sitting on a ski lift. I was amazed there was nothing on the market – it seemed such an obvious idea. I also saw some stats that suggested there were more than 350,000 insurance claims in this country last year for damaged mobiles*. It was clear there was a gap in the market for a cheap and simple solution.”

myBunjee iswill be available  now from September in a range of colours, including pink, orange, blue, purple and black. Stockists include Menkind, Housing Units, QVC (at Christmas), www.mybunjee.com and other good retailers.
