“5 years ago, my friend went to Bangalore for the campus placement. Took a Uber ride and when the cab left within a hour he realized he left his mobile in the cab. He called up the driver, uber customer care, tried filing FIR at police, but nobody helped. That was @lowbangaloremoment,” shared a user.

Another user wrote, “This is nothing. In 2009 I lost my wallet in Vizag railway station while travelling to Bangalore. Lost everything along with my train ticket. Felt helpless, later I received a letter which has everything except wallet and cash and a message, ‘sorry bro your money helped my mom.”

“A similar thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I left the iPhone on the restaurant table. Luckily, I left the bill on the table that had my number. I didn’t have any clue that the iPhone was missing until I reached home and the guy called me. Only possible in Bangalore,” wrote a third user.
