A woman claims a taxi driver refused to let her in his cab, due to her skin condition, because 'he'd have to clean it'.
Carly Findlay was out celebrating her birthday in Melbourne, Australia before attempting to get in a cab home.
As she got in Carly, who is an appearance and disability activist, says the driver asked her what had happened to her face.
When she replied nothing, but she says he said he didn't want to take her home as "he'd have to clean" his car after.
She told Nine News in Australia: "This behaviour spoils lovely nights. It means I can never feel safe asking taxis for lifts.
"It makes me feel bothered and dirty. It makes me feel unheard. It is time consuming.
"It's the truth when I say nothing happened to my face. And I shouldn't have to answer more than that to safely ride a cab."
The taxi company is yet to release a public statement, but it replied to Carly' tweet.
It read: "Hi Carly, firstly, we apologise unreservedly for any inconvenience this caused you & thank you for bringing this to our attention.
"This driver's behaviour will not be tolerated, & we are immediately investigating. We will respond further after interviewing the driver."
