Hi,Appearing in person gives you the best chance of a decision in your favour. The reason they've asked for a telephone hearing is most likely because they want to hear it from you exactly how your conditions affect you. As you're hard of hearing this probably isn't the best option for you but i have no answers. Unfortunately i have no answers for you. Hopefully someone with more knowledge about Tribunals will see this and help you further. Good luck.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

Good morning, If you are in Norfolk and are having a tribunal in Norwich, (Queens Road) I suggest you contact Norwich Community Law Centre - (St Clements House, 2-16 Colegate, Norwich NR3 1BQ - Telephone: 01603 496623 Email:
info@ncls.co.uk. They will help you with advice, and also put you in touch with a Sign Language expert who could be able to attend with you. They are an exceptional organisation, they have a specialist in DWP/PIP/ESA law. I don't know where you live in Norfolk, but if you have trouble travelling by public transport, or there is no Public Transport available in your area (This is Norfolk after all) Approach HMCTS - Email address should be on their letter, and ask for taxi fare. (If you have 14 days before your appeal hearing, they will pay you in advance.) If you need any further information regarding Norwich Tribunal service, just let em know. Good luck and best wishes. -
Could you ask if the tribunal would use the Next Generation Text service?
You can set it up so that a text relay assistant types what the other party is saying and you can either speak in response or type your response - depending how you set it up.
I am also hard of hearing and am going to attend my tribunal in person and they have been sympathetic to my difficulties so hopefully they should be to you too.

Presumably the Tribunal Service think that the use of sign language is possible??
