You phone wasn't lost. You left it behind.

Don't forget, the terms of service that you accepted indicate that they are not responsible for anything that you leave, not lost, behind.

Oh, and this isn't Lfyt. It's a Public Facing site.

Forgot my wallet in the car

Lyft - Forgot my wallet in the car

I have been waiting for 12 hours to have a call back but nobody has contacted me. I left my wallet in the car when they dropped me at my address; I forgot to grab my wallet.

I did three reports, but I haven't got any answer or a call.

My phone number is 915-808-****. Thank you.

User's recommendation: A good service

  • - Driver did not show for scheduled pickup.
  • - The driver contacted an hour before, deleted from the app; screenshot captured his name; no way to report.
Lyft - Company unresponsive.
Updated by user Feb 02, 2026

I added a screenshot showing the name of the guy who was supposed to pick me up at 11:15, but chose I guess to completely omit himself from the app without letting me know he had decided to stop being an Uber driver and would not be picking me up.

Original review Feb 02, 2026

I was unable to effectively report a driver who did not show up for his scheduled pick up. It had been planned several days in advance.

Apparently, he contacted an hour earlier, and luckily, I got a screenshot of his name because later, when it was time for him to pick me up, he had deleted himself from the app. There is no way to contact the company and report.

Loss:
$48
Pros:
  • Some drivers were very pleasant and responsible
Cons:
  • Options given on the app to communicate are extremely limitedthey are not sufficient

Preferred solution: The charges for the ride that did not arrive are still pending for the next four days in my credit union. There is no way to see if they have canceled that charge or not. There was no way to cancel it.

User's recommendation: They are not always accountable. I don’t know if I will be refunded or not.

What do you want them to do about a driver who "deleted himself" from the app? It's over. You get your money back in the time frame that you agreed to when you accepted their terms of service.

It doesn’t sound like you’re familiar with the situation and you are making assumptions.

It sounds like someone is familiar with the terms of service that says when you will get your money back.

Lyft - Review in Transport category  from Atlanta,  Georgia

Hi. My name is Natasha.

I have been working with Lyft since after the pandemic. I would never assault any customer or try to harm any customer. I have never maced any customer now or in the past whatsoever. I've been with the platform for a long time.

This is messing with my livelihood. I feel like it is false evidence against me. And whatever customer is trying to get me fired because they were dissatisfied, they are wrong for that. I would never harm anybody.

I have three kids that I have to worry about. With me not being able to do the platform, it is messing up my livelihood and messing with the money that I make every day. Some customers probably don't care how we make our money, but at the end of the day, this is my job, and I am trying not to be in my feelings about this incident. But at the end of the day, there's no police report.

There's no video footage whatsoever dealing with this matter. I don't know what customer reported this to you, but I feel like my integrity and my livelihood has been disrespected due to the fact of false pretense against me. If you can take in consideration how long I've been working for the company and ask any of the customers that rate me as their favorites, what type of driver I am. I'm a good person.

I talk to my customers, the ones who will talk to me. And the ones that won't, I leave them alone until I get them to their destination. I have no reason to mace any customers. If I feel like my life is in harm, I will cancel a ride if I have to.

At the end of the day, I am not going to harm anyone whatsoever because I wouldn't want it done to me. I know what it feels like to be pepper sprayed, but I would never pepper spray any of my customers. And once y'all basically allow me to be back on the platform at all times, I will make sure everything is recorded from every ride from now on so there is no false evidence against me. Please allow me to be back on the platform due to the fact that I've had other incidents where I was reported of supposedly drinking on the job, which I've never had a DUI day in my life, or car smelling like alcohol when they should know that we pick up out of the passenger that's probably either drinking or has been drinking.

So sometimes it seeps out of their pores. But at the end of the day, I do my job, and I go home. I just really wanna get back to work.

If you can take me in consideration and please allow me to go back to work, that would be fine. Thank you.
