Neighbours from hell

[LaLemonLa]

I live in a block of flats which I love, it's a 5 min walk right into the City. I've spent a happy few years here and really don't want to move.

About six weeks ago, a couple moved in who are really unfriendly and CONSTANTLY argue. I mean every day, 3/4 times a day they are rowing and screaming. They don't work so I don't mind it in the day because I work full time. I already know how their arguments end because he screams "fuck offffffff" and then slams the door

Anyway, this morning at 7am I'm awoken by them screaming at the top of their lungs at each other, it got to 7.30am and they were still at it so I stomped on the ground. It didn't do much.

I'm knackered so I've come for a nap and they've woken me up with yet another argument!

How do I deal with this pair of utter knobs? I'm tired, grumpy and I can't be arsed to spend the next god knows how long above them! I'm also not a confrontational person and they are

Any likelihood of domestic abuse? Because then it would be the right thing to do to report it.

Can you befriend one of them and subtly persuade them to dump the other?

Sorry - silly idea. I don't really know what to suggest but I really feel for you. I once worked in an office and the company next door had two owners who were constantly falling out. Even though my own office was peaceful and friendly, having that all going on next door all day every day was quite stressful.

Not sure they would care if you told them you could hear them. Does anyone know if it would count as some sort of environmental noise complaint? Fingers crossed the break up soon!

I can't be sure but it sounds like it's 'just' arguments. I've reported family members for DV with children, it was investigated and she lied and said everything was fine and they left her alone! They're still together.

I don't want to report them for DV because it's pretty obvious it'd be me (there's only me in ear shot).

She is so unfriendly (ordered a take away and stole the food) dont ask how she did it. I just heard the commotion of the driver banging on her door and her saying "well you made me wait too long anyway!"

I've heard her shouting "I'm not even sure whether I want to be with you or not" I've sat crossing my fingers but then they make up and it's the same scenario the next day.

Is it rented or owned. Speak to landlord if rented. If owned is there a freeholder or management committee.

It's rented but through different estate agents for each flat. Mine is pretty crap and didn't do much when the previous tenant got a dog that barked all night because the owner worked night shifts.

Are any other neighbours perhaps feeling the same way as you? Can you speak to them to figure out what to do collectively.

It doesn't really affect the other neighbours as I'm the only one above them 😩

Now they're having crazy loud sex
