Currently pay the £12 a year for the internet backup just wondered do they send you a reminder when it is up. Not sure how long its been since i took it out, seems quite a while. Would hate for it to have expired and something goes wrong.

That's what I do.

Or do the back up onto a memory stick. The file size is tiny.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

Should say when it expires. When i back up on George it says make sure im connected to the internet and there is a box that tells you when it expires
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

It might be easier, but doesn't mean that it is the best option.

I would hate my data to be sent back to someone else by mistake.

Also If George fell ill or stopped trading for some reason, how long would it take to get my data back ?

Its my data so i need to take full responsibility for it and not rely on a program that is out of my control.

I also test my backups regularly to see if they are backing up correctly
