You can move the appointment once but then the claimant must attend the new one or risk their claim being closed. I would call the day before the current booking (if possible), to cancel and then make a new appointment while on the phone for a mutually agreeable date, if they are not able to offer a date on the phone then make sure that you give then any dates that are not suitable and then confirm these in writing.
