It appears Uber riders in London are becoming more forgetful.

After not ranking last year, London has now ranked #10 on the 2023 list of most forgetful cities.

The seventh annual Uber Lost & Found Index was released Thursday and shows the most popular items left behind by riders.

Here’s the most commonly forgotten items left behind in London

  1. Article of clothing
  2. Backpack or bag
  3. Wallet or purse
  4. Phone
  5. Headphones
  6. Jewelry
  7. Keys
  8. Vape or e-cig
  9. PPE
  10. Baby items (pacifiers, milk bottle, strollers, car seats)

Across the country, some of the most unique items left behind include a mattress cover in Saskatoon, a photo of 2Pac in Montreal, a set of teeth in Calgary and a ping pong table in Toronto.

And don’t forget to double check for your belongings if you’re in an Uber on a Sunday. Sunay at 6 p.m. is tanked as the most forgetful day and time across Canada where people are departing their ride without their things.

Here’s the Top 10 most forgetful cities across Canada

  1. Montreal
  2. Hamilton
  3. Vancouver
  4. Edmonton
  5. Kitchener-Waterloo
  6. Winnipeg
  7. Calgary
  8. Toronto
  9. Ottawa
  10. London

If you are one of those people who left something behind in an Uber, there is a way to get it back, but it’s going to cost you $20 — the fee goes entirely to the driver for the inconvenience of returning the item.
