I suspect I am bu but I’m raging lol.

6 months ago our lovely neighbour moved onto a retirement home. He sold his house to a family. A week after they moved in the woman drove into my wall and knocked a concreate post over. She didn’t come and tell me just proped it up against the wall. I went to ask what happened, she apologised and said she’s not used to such a narrow drive and will get DH to fix. I said fair enough but please come tell me as children walk in the wall (mine and others in the street) and it will be dangerous if the pillar is loose and we don’t know. 6 months later still not fixed even though we’ve reminded the husband a few times.

3x a week young son (year 6) is driven home by a friends parents. Mother is never home on time. He’s left knocking on the door. Sometimes in the rain. I politely said I don’t think your mums home yet, he called me a bitch. I mentioned this to mum when I saw her last week. She laughed and got in her car.

They regularly park in front of our drive then make out like it’s hardest job in the world to move the car.

5 days ago a parcel was delivered for next door. I didn’t really want to take it but I thought I was being petty so I signed for it. The driver left a note. 2 days later they hadn’t collected so I knocked on the door. Husband was in but wouldn’t answer (saw car arrive, curtains twitching etc). After 4 days I posted a note saying please come collect parcel as it’s been 4 days. It’s a large parcel and I’m fed up of seeing it. Today (day 5) I see a sky van pull up for next door, they are in and still not collected parcel. So I went round and knocked. No answer. I asked sky man to take the parcel in but he refused saying he was going up the ladder.

Wtaf? I’m so pissed off. Aibu to fix the wall and send the bill, throw the parcel over the gate and post dog shit though her letterbox? (obvs last is a joke) Grin

Open the parcel and post it through the letterbox, in pieces...

If its a big parcel then you'll need to open it to find who sent it. You'll need to contact them to arrange collection. You don't want to be paying for return postage. They might send you a pre paid label or arrange a courier

Can you speak to the police for criminal damage to your property?

I doubt that would work really, I don't really know

2 families down our road have a dispute over the most trivial of things - it's been going on for years. At least once a month the police are at either of their houses for damage that's not anywhere near as bad as what the OP describes. So it could be worth pursuing!

Right side neighbour is called skank... We did think she was a prostitute since she entertains so many men

Other side are the Flanders-lovely Christian couple

Hi, nightmare neighbours are no joke! You're best bet would be to contact the courier company and get their advice on what to do. Unfortunately it seems when you sign for a parcel you are also signing up to take duty of care for it and you could be held legally responsible should it go missing or your neighbours decided to play games. Protect yourself from these morons! Ignore their brat, he's prob bitter and depressed that they're his parents!!! HmmWink

Any update?

Birdshitbridgegotme · 24/02/2019 20:17

When you see them leaving/arriving home.I would run out and give them the parcel. Then if they refuse to take it you can say right okay I'll leave it on your doorstep and do it in front of them.

Call social services in their sun if the mums not home! Year 6 is quite young to be left out on the street.
Home insurance advice to chase neighbour. They’re not being very nice to you and laughing in your face. You’ve given them a chance so just be polite and professional. They’re obviously not going to be pleasant so don’t try any more 😕 good luck
