Hello all I want to apply for PIP but I am aware to apply you have to do this by phone.One of my medical conditions is deafness and I really struggle to hear telephone conversations . I have 2 hearing aids and can only use telephone on speaker mode and then I mishear things especially if it is a female voice.Is there any way of applying without using a telephone?
Can someone ring on your behalf, you will need to be present to authorise the DWP to speak to the person but it is the quickest to make a claim.
If you can't arrange this then you can write to the DWP for a paper copy of the PIP1 which is the form completed on the phone, your claim does not start until the pIP1 is received back by the DWP.
