horrible neighbour shouts abusive

[dontunderstandpeople]

hello everyone we are council tenants and lived here 21 years,I am disabled i have fibromyalgia and ptsd and arthritis so invisible disablility.M y lovely neigbour that lived there years did a exchange with the lady that lives there now,She has lived there 8 years now when she moved in she bought the property from council.then soon has she bought it BANG everything changed we've had asbo team police council to them.everytime im in the garden she shouts vile absuse at me swears calls me scrounger scum.but she does this when the husband is at work.Then when hes gone to work at 6.30am music goes on loud in the bedroom where she knows we sleep, cant swap rooms wouldn't wont to swap with our son that would be cruel to him.Defo not moving cause of her we get on with everyone, in the street had no problems with anyone, until her we called the police out to her had evidence they just said they cant do anything council not doing anything.Lat night saturday was eurovision on until 12 pm me and my son was laughing so at 6.30am she went into back bedroom where we sleep used a drill slammed shut her 1 bedroom window 5 times used a hammer to bang on wall 7 times then put a speaker in the bedroom and kept turning music up and down for 20 mins.Now im knackered im at my wits end any support out there im missing?

So u think it’s ok for u to make noise late at night, but not for her to make noise in the morning! U are reaping what u have sown, probably y the other neighbours moved.

hi skybluepinky it was a saturday night we are always in bed by 9pm last night was a one off, we are extremely quite our tv is on low son in bed by 9pm has well ,The other neighbours moved becuase they ripped of local drug dealer in area,

I hardly think laughing at midnight justifies what the neighbour is doing 🙄 @Skybluepinky

Are you keeping a diary of events and recording any thing you can as evidence?

It's perfectly reasonable to watch Eurovision, it's not every day. It's not reasonable to act as the neighbour has. I'd ponder reporting her for harassment.

She said she and her son were laughing at Eurovision on the TV. That is normal noise in a house on a Saturday evening. Banging on the wall, using a drill and playing loud music in q bedroom at 6.30 on Sunday morning isn't normal behaviour.
OP if the noise at unreasonable times persists you can make a complaint your local authority . You should make a note of every time they are unreasonably noisy with the time and duration of the noise
If you search on gov.uk under noise complaint. It tells you how to make a complaint.

If you want the council to act you'll have to log and submit incidents.

Not that it's relevant to this neighbour's behaviour but if your previous neighbour was involved in drug activity that doesn't sound too good either.

thank you all for the lovely replies last year we kept diary for asbo team they fitted noise machine to the wall but that was a failure,Why you ask becuase when the asbo team came to fit it she watched them come in with the equipment and it was to listen for 7 days only so she didnt do anything for 7 days.I know it was a waste of there time.Ive now been told to take my phone with me everytime i go into my own garden to catch her shouting vile things which ive got 1 recording of her,I was in our garden she seen me after she drove up on the path she seen me sat there went into her front garden and sang very loudly SCUM SCUM SCUM SCUM for 4 minutes ive got this recording.But just before christmas she hand wrote me a letter saying i need to stop sending police around and harassing her?

Yes, of course it's OK to bang on the walls, verbally abuse people and be an absolute shit show of a human being all because one heard a neighbour laugh at 11.30 on a Saturday night!

Which isn't actually the case as eurovision was last night and this neighbour has been a ballache for ages.

Twat!

If you have a housing officer, tell them about it. There should be a way of making complaints through the council.

Keep a diary of her behaviour and download a recording app (the noise app)to record the noise. Get CCTV and a video doorbell.

thank you all i thought i was going mad thinking the world had changed and that a 1 time thing i laughed at eurovision last night and deserved the noise at 6.30am thought id missed something.skybluepinky comment made me google i had done noise disturbance because it was a saturday night and id actually done something wrong i have my phone recording of last week when she just started to call me scum.little does my neigbour know but i live of my private pension and im not a scrounger i did work has a interpreter for english consulate years ago and had a easy accident that led me to take early retirement

hello MiloMinderbinder925 thank you so much for the reply, just before october last year we got the council housing involved and when they went to speak to her she came outside and just told them to ?off her property,So the council then contacted the police the police went round to speak to her and she basically told them without any proof of anything get lost she said and slammed door on them,Bearing in mind they were just the local is it cpo local community police sorry forgot what they call them.They just kept saying its a civil matter?

You need to keep pursuing it as it's very likely that she's breaking her contract. Keep a diary, record her and keep contacting the police and the council. Take a note of all crime numbers.

Don't communicate with her.

Yes, don't communicate and get as much evidence as you can, get some cameras if you can.

I honestly wish you the best sorting this as your home should be your haven not this.

At every instance of abuse call the police 101 and get an incident number.remind them disability is a protected characteristics and you feel this is a hate crime.
Are you recording? Can you save the recordings to folder on your computer?

Good luck, we are with you.
