YOU MAY HAVE noticed that some of those old Bebo photos are coming back to haunt you. Bebo have begun giving users back their old photos and blogs, and if you know your old username and password or have access to the associated email account, you can get yours back. The deadline is 15 March though, so get a move on.
Here’s what you need to do.
1. Download the new Bebo app for iPhone or Android. If you don’t have either, you can email support@bebo.com and beg.
2. Create your Bebo character and you will be given a chat screen with a Bebo bot, @teambebo
3. Open the chat and type #OldPhotos
4. You’ll be given a screen like this to enter the details of the account you want to recover photos and blogs from
5. If you’ve forgotten your username and password, not to worry. The email you used with the account will suffice.
6. Await that faithful email with a .zip file containing your old stuff, and start tagging everyone on Facebook.

Most people would swap Bebo for Facebook at this stage……..
Bebo was great, the top friends, music, the ability to personalise your page and the comment box….sigh, I wish I was a young un again.
Some things are better left in the past.
After downloading my old pictures, I have to agree with you.
Tried but told my account was deleted…??????
Me too! Well, disabled!
Same. Can’t remember doing that
Account disabled? Can I get it back?……….
And Bebo love. . .
So they sent me a link to download my photos via email but when it was all downloaded and ready this pops up “windows photo viewer cannot open this as it appears to have been deleted or is in a location that is unavailable” WTF!!! I want my photos back! How can they just up and delete all of our photos with out even telling us Arrrrrgh!!!
Are my photos sent to my current email address or the one I signed up to bebo with?
Or just click the button at the top right that says get old photos back!
What email do they go to your old one or the one you sign up with??
my acct was disabled i cant get me old pics
It’s saying I have 0 photos? >:(
Is the app closing every time you click on request photos for anyone else?
What email does the photos go to the new one you sign up with now or your old one? And how old do they take to come through??
it only works for ios and android above 4.4 grr.. So people with ordinary phones can’t get it
Does it really work on android or this just meant for iOS. i cant even create an account. fake this thing
very nice blogs.I would be like that your wonderful.
Please send my photos?
Interesante artÃculo sobre http://collageconfotos.com/ online, llega a ser muy fácil poder crear y diseñar mis fotos para dedicarlas. Os recomiendo este blog de collages gratis
Can’t even get the things that are in the screenshots. No TeamBebo or anything; no one online; had to email Team Bebo asking for #oldphotos.
have your say
