Edwards who weighs 36 stone is registered obese, has cellulitis in his legs, body fluid problems, and has blood clots in his lungs and heart.

He is appalled by the company's decision, as he has been a 'loyal customer' for the past five years and spends up to £20 a day on the rides, he told the Sun.

He even books a five seater van when taking rides.

Edwards told the paper: 'I am obese because of my medical problems but this is discrimination against larger people like me, pure and simple.

'I don't believe I have knackered two cars' suspensions but I think they just don't want a person of my size around them.

'They should realise I suffer from a disease called obesity. After all the money we have spent with them they should be ashamed.'

Whine whine bleat bleat....Go on a fucking diet then!

You suffer from a disease called gluttony.

Instead of taking cabs everywhere, if he (and her) walked instead, that would help solve their problem.

When someone is as obese as he is, personal hygiene must surely become a problem. Maybe the taxi drivers were also losing money wasting worktime trying to get rid of the smell he left behind.

He should be using a trucking company to move him around -- not inflicting himself on some poor suffering taxi drivers...

I reckon a 3 or 4 tonne truck could handle it, preferably with a powered tailgate to lift him up..

Even though I tried to stand up for the overweight, in this instance this is way over even my tolerance. He's way to big for an average car on his own, if they go out together I'm suprised the car even manages to take off.

All he's doing is whining because he's too fat and lazy to walk.

To get to that size, by stuffing his face, is his own fault.

Instead of pity me, get out there, exercise, eat healthily and stop thinking the world owes you a living!
