How to contact this service
Description
Relay UK (an Ofcom-regulated service run by BT on behalf of all UK landline and mobile phone providers) helps you communicate in English over the phone, whether you're hard of hearing, deaf, or speech-impaired. You don't need any special equipment. Conversations will be easy to manage and relaxed. You will still be able to make calls with your textphone, so there's no need to worry about changing it.
Choose Your Device - By simply downloading the app and linking it to your phone number, you can use the Relay UK service on your smartphone, tablet, or PC.
Relay Assistant - When you use the confidential Relay UK service, a Relay Assistant will speak (or type) what you're saying to the other person.
Type Direct - If the other person is also using the app or a textphone, you can type to them directly (bypassing the Relay Assistant).
Please note: any calls you make with Relay UK are confidential and your data is secure.
