Uber Riders in Bangladesh are most forgetful on Fridays
Uber, the leading ridesharing app, today released the eighth edition of its Lost and Found Index for 2024. This index provides a snapshot of what people forget most frequently, the days of the week, hours of the day, and times of the year when Uber riders reported lost items.
People in Bangladesh were most forgetful during May and June in the last one year, particularly during the evenings. And most objects were left behind over the weekends. Over the last year, we have seen objects including clothing and umbrellas top the list of most forgotten items in Ubers across Bangladesh, followed by utility items like wallets, pillows, and headphones. Besides leaving the usuals behind, Bangladeshis also forget unexpected things such as speakers.
Nasheed Ferdous Kamal, Country Head, Uber Bangladesh, said, “At Uber, we prioritize the safety and convenience of our riders, which includes ensuring the safe return of any items left behind during trips. Our Lost & Found Index is a fun and informative way to educate our riders about the in-app options available to retrieve lost items. We want to let our riders know that we are here to help in case they forget anything in their rides.”
