Reply to comment by JonAugust1010 in Not the spooks I was looking for this Halloween: left my phone in my last lyft, can only go through Lyft customer service without my phone and the driver just hasn't responded to them in 24hrs now. RIP by JonAugust1010

People are weird. You'd think they'd want to clear up that situation fast -- risking their ability to drive for Lyft doesn't seem worth it for a phone that IIRC can be flagged to brick itself remotely if marked stolen. I can see if the driver was stupid and gave it to a friend to sell before thinking it through, they might be in a bit of a pickle and not willing to pick up the phone.

I expected lyft to tell me that they'd definitely make contact, but they are seemingly telling me that since they aren't getting a response there's nothing more they can do. I would've thought they'd be able to call someone who works for them.
