I am in Davenport Iowa and lost my laptop in Uber Car was 2016 Toyota Corolla and driver was James I need it returned now I cannot wait until Monday How to force the driver to give me my laptop back quickly
If you have followed my twitter account since December, you might know that I was robbed by my Uber driver. He intentionally drove off with my backpack containing my brand new $2,000 laptop, a bunch of marketing stuff, my medicine, second cell phone, some clothes, and pretty much everything important I owned. Seven months later, the situation has finally been resolved. I wanted to give everyone on the internet a rundown of what happened so they can hopefully prevent this happening to them, and if so you will know the steps I took to get back what was taken from me (kind of).
As we arrived at my AirBNB I slid my laptop back into my bag and looked up instructions on how to check in. When we pulled up to the location we stopped in the middle of an uphill street, right next to another car. It was a tight fit getting out of the backseat. I looked around the unfamiliar street and told the driver that I would unload the suitcases to the curb then I would come back for the backpack in the backseat.
It was at that point I realized that I had been robbed. When I opened the bag and used the laptop and cell phone he must have seen it in his rearview mirror. When I told him that I would get the bag in a second, that second he saw an opportunity and drove off. Luckily my phone has awesome battery life and I had enough to find my way over to the police station.
After a long stressful day, I was finally given the nutritional information for my new beer flavored sauces. I had had Photoshop and Illustrator loaded up on the laptop along with my source files so I could finalize my new labels and get them off to be printed. I had planned on finishing my labels that day, but with the robbery I had no way to get it done. I ended up having to buy another laptop and download Creative suite to it.
The laptop had a password on it and facial recognition. The extra cell phone on the other hand had no security measures on it. It had my google accounts loaded, but it was in airplane mode. I figured if the thief was stupid they might connect it to wifi and my email would try and update. I checked the IP addresses to see if anyone connected it and gave me an IP so I could get a location but alas, no such luck.
I talked with a representative at the Uber office and he told me that I could contact le...@uber.com and talk to them about law enforcement matters to resolve this. I sent an email on the spot and was told that they would only talk to the police. I went back to the courthouse and filed a claim for $3,900 plus a filing fee of $100. This included the cost of a plane ticket and lodging for a return trip and the contents of the bag. I actually underestimated the value of the bag contents at that time, but oh well.
At the end of the conversation he asked if we could reach a settlement and avoid court. My response was that I wanted to get paid back for what was stolen. They offered me $1,000. I told them that would cover half the cost of my laptop and I would see them in court.
