    Hi,

    Yes it's much better to appear in person and the Tribunal will always prefer this more than anything else.

    Only 8% of paper based hearings have a decision in their favour, against 71% for those that appear in person.
    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.
