I went to the meeting today - was a very useful start. I think it would have been particularly useful before I started with Hearing aids, or if my Dr was trying to persuade me not to go for a test (one did a few years back). I am also on the Guy's trial. The benefit I see in the phone is you adjust the volume on each side separately. Useful for me in singing situations where I want to hear more or less of another part. I am happy to share my experience, either at the group or via PM. Edited to add some detail.
