I'd say "le" is the correct article in this situation
The use of le, la and lo is something even Spaniards can get very confused over. Overall, the idea is that, if you can get the information "le" precedes by asking the verb "what" (I know my phrasing in here is confusing but I don't really know how to construct the sentence otherwise), "le" (or "la" if it's a feminine noun) is the correct option

I'll give examples for clarity, or I'll try, at least

-"Le vi la cabeza" uses "le" because, by asking the verb "what did you see?/¿qué viste?", "la cabeza" comes smoothly as an answer

-In the other hand "Lo ví por la calle" uses "lo" because you can't really get that information by asking the verb "¿qué?", it would be "¿dónde?/where?"

Therefore, your phrase uses "le" because by asking "dejé" "¿Qué pidió?" "Usar su teléfono" is answered

Tbh both sound correct, I would and have use when speaking. As to which is more "proper" I'd say LO.

LO for guys and LA for females.
Le just sounds to Adress someone without it being gender specific.

This. i just asked my mom who is a spanish teacher
"lo" is for neutral things. undefinded gender and else. Teléfono is male in spanish, so you need "le".
