My wife left her phone in a Grab Cab. She went on line to research what to do, and even tho we didn't remember the specific driver, they had an app to relocate her.

 

We called her and offered her a 2K baht reward. We had the phone back an hour after we lost it.

I found a phone in a song taew with credit cards. Fortunately the owner called the number and I told her where to collect it from my condo office. All good.
