I lost my MacBook on Bus

Post by Tinyfishhh » Sun, 19 Sep 2021 6:47 pm

Hi all,

I lost my MacBook on Bus 10 going towards Kent ridge interchange on 7/9/2021. I alighted at bus stop Aft Siglap Rd around 9:07am. I couldn't trace anything because the MacBook is current offline now. I have reported to the interchange lost and found dept and also lodge a police report as well. It's been 12 days and still no updates from the officer. I didn't back up the photos with my grandparents, It has a lot of sentimental value...I really hope the kind soul who picked up my MacBook will return to me.


Is there any forum/platform I can check for lost and found items ?

2 years back, I also forgot my office laptop in bus 75. After reaching home, I realized and immediately called SMRT helpline to report. They said that they will check and call me if they find it in bus. Next day morning, I called them again to check and got to know that they have found it in bus and I can collect it from the bus interchange. All buses have camera installed... If you follow up with SBS Transit/police, It should not be difficult to trace.

You’d have to go to the nearest police station and file a report. Alternatively you can visit the bus interchange and see if anything was dropped off.

The worry is just if some dishonest commuter decided to make the mac his own. If it was left untouched on the bus, I have no doubt that it can be recovered. Otherwise, I’m not optimistic.
