A visually impaired woman who relies on rideshare services to get around is suing Uber, alleging she has been repeatedly refused rides because of her Guide Dog.
Paula Hobley says Uber refused to pick her up on 32 occasions from her home in regional Victoria, even though she had advised she was travelling with a service animal.
She says the refusals continued despite reporting the incidents to Uber, causing considerable delays and interruptions to her plans.
