A universal grip band assembly for a mobile communication device is provided to prevent the user of the mobile communication device from dropping the mobile communication device. The assembly includes a backing plate which is adhesively secured to the back side of the mobile communication device. A flexible and rectangular-shaped band is selectively removably secured to the backing plate which enables the user to insert his or her fingers between the flexible band and the backing plate to securely grip the mobile communication device. The flexible band may be disconnected from the backing plate so that the band may be replaced upon being worn out or may be replaced with different bands having different colors.
