I think that makes sense, many people don’t want their contact info given out to someone who happened to find their lost device. If they wanted that, they could always just add a keychain tag with their name and phone number to the device
- bagels 4y agoSimple solution is for Garmin to accept and reship the device since they already know the owner?
- mlyle 4y agoWhich might be too much of a hassle for them to take on for occasional lost devices. But passing on contact info of the finder doesn't seem too bad.
- almog 4y agoI agree and pointed to the fact that it makes sense they wouldn't let you contact the owner directly and added that one solution could have been to have Garmin notify the owner that someone found their device. When I lost my PLB (an emergency only type device) I contacted NOAA to notify them of it so that in case it accidentally gets activated, COSPAS SARSAT won't send an SAR team to the midi pyrenees. Not only did they respond within minutes but they told me that in case someone will find it and contact them, they can share my details (to which I happily agreed).
