Ski Nae Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 (edited) Just going to vent a bit here. We moved into an upstairs flat/house in a 4-in-a-block about 4 years ago. All the neighbours seemed nice until wee things started to happen. Wee things that are trivial and petty but wee things that have a horrible dripping-tap effect on you. The evil witch who lives downstairs has been involved with 22 pieces petty vandalism, theft, and general *********ry. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Any top tips?

Cade Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Keep a journal of everything they do and when. Call the cops as needed. We had a drunken arsehole in our stair a while back. Let his wee niece throw parties at his place. Absolute mayhem. When we started complaining, cars got vandalised (wing mirrors/tyres and eventually windscreens). Arsehole even tried to poison people's dogs and kidnapped a couple of cats. After the police and council had enough on him he was served an eviction notice and this resulted in him barricading himself in and being physically removed by armed police. Kinda lucky that he was just a tenant and not a homeowner. I have no idea how to resolve things when a homeowner acts the twat. Unless they do something worth getting jailed for, and even then they're right back at home when they get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes there’s hardly anything that can be done if they are home owners who cause the anti social behaviours . To the OP the behaviours you are describing by the neighbour are criminal so need police involvement . Keep a diary of incidences and call the police every time . The council need as much evidence as possible to pursue it . However if you are all housing association tenants your housing association will deal with it . Either way they are breaching their tenancy agreement . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herbert. Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 It's shit living in flats. Either you get annoyed with the people above for banging about or the people underneath moan cause you dare to move around your flat. I have to say though with you being above them you have the advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having also raised kids herself, she is also pretty chilled when it comes to our boys making noise. Hope you slip her a little something now and again.

The wee lassie next door to us does that. Her boyfriend does it, which suggests to me she does it intentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say though with you being above them you have the advantage. I’ve got a new neighbour and she’s got a barking dog . It was howling this morning , scratching at the door or a room and barking . Feking annoying . Every time we leave the house it barks too . I just shout “ shut up “ or “ shut the fevk up “ 😂 anyway if it’s continues I’ll have a discussion with the neighbour as she / he might not know it’s barking when she isn’t in the house .
