This sounds like a nonsense story to me. Am I supposed to believe someone like him can't get Coinbase to give him access?
Official Coinbase Statement: "We kinda thought he just forgot about it. But don't worry, we know where to get some more."

I don't use coinbase, so I am just making guess (that could be incorrect.)
The thought that came to my mind was, putting aside the possible bad PR (from the cnbc story) I would think Coinbase would rather have the BTC under their management vs it leaving the exchange. And therefor they may could be less then helpful in recovering an user account.
I don't know if they charge a monthly fee or not but I wonder what their abandon asset policy is and does it favor CoinBase or the customer?
