For context live on new estate well built 4 years ago mainly housing association with 3 home owners I have the worse neighbours imaginable several hurl insults at me and my dh have had our door kicked in having meetings in the street pointing at my house getting other neighbours involved making lies up about us saying things like we have abused them sent police around my house 30 times last year saying domestic abuse was happening it wasn't they are pretty vile and several neighbours gang up together to the point I'm to scared to leave my house reported to police they done nothing but chat with them course they denied it and reported to my social housing landlord who was ignorant about it when I complained about their behaviour their answer was well they could say the same about you so im at my wits end with this anyone else been in this situation

Is there any reason that they are targeting you or anything that makes you and your husband particularly vulnerable to this? You need to start keeping a diary if you haven't already and trying to gather evidence, pictures, recordings etc. Best thing you can do is try to ignore them as much as you can in the meantime and don't react.

This is just awful as poster above said keep a diary log of all incidents, police reports etc. Is there anyway you can try to get a property in another area far away from them as they will not change. Horrible having this all the time and affects your health and mental health. Scary reporting people like this as you worry they will escalate their behavior and I would try to move if you can talk to the council, even if it takes time it will give you hope for the future.

Get a ring doorbell or nest cam and record them

Keep notes of all incidents

Have they said why they are doing it? (Not sure if the insults were specific)

Queenfierce · 11/05/2024 07:16

We Suspect we've been targeted as everyone lives in everyone else's lives on this road of 24 houses and myself and husband have never really been one to mix with any of the neighbours we keep ourselves to ourselves its just the way we are

I will get a ring doorbell thank you that's a good idea

I asked my housing if they could help move us and they said no its mutal exchange now but we definitely want to move as our life is a living hell with them

I'll start a diary thank you all for the suggestions I appreciate it

Maybe they are just really angry grammar pedants

Sounds awful but realistically (and from seeing other threads) you really need to focus on trying to move 🫤. Seems very unfair but these assholes don’t change and even if Police sort out their behaviour you won’t feel happy / safe there

I think I'm going to have to move your right my mental health is suffering as I'm always on edge on here and I won't even open my windows as I'm worried they'll try something

Put all your energy into moving. Can you raise an action via a lawyer for the HA to move you elsewhere. Go to your local MP's surgery and keep going, there's an election coming so they are keen to secure support. Ring doorbell is a good idea too.

I couldn't afford a lawyer sadly but MP is a great idea to thank you for the advice I will definitely be looking to just move now this is even affecting my working life as I'm often to worried to leave my home incase of confrontation
