RYDE shared a post on Facebook sharing their honest driver who returned a laptop bag with over SGD$6,000 inside.
Here is what Ryde said:
Last Tuesday, our Driver-Partner Desmond found and returned a laptop bag with more than $6k cash in it.
During our chat with him yesterday, Desmond shared that it was the subsequent riders who told him about the bag. He looked through the items to find identification and found what he presumed to be the owner’s payslip.
Desmond contacted our support team via RydeHELP as well as the company listed on the payslip in his efforts to return the bag to its owner as soon as possible. In just under six hours, Desmond returned the bag to its owner – who thanked him for his actions and confirmed that nothing was missing and everything was in order.
Desmond has been driving with Ryde since 2017. When asked about his immediate thoughts when he discovered the huge amount of money, he shared that he had once lost money too and could imagine how anxious the rider would be.
Thank you Desmond, for keeping the Ryde community trustworthy and respectable. As a small gesture of our appreciation, we gave him a Care Package along with a token sum of money. More importantly, we would like to highlight the integrity and initiative of our Driver-Partners – all of you make every ride a better one.
