I have written about the is before but I am at my wit's end with my ongoing situation.
I have lived in my HA house since December 2024 and from day 1 (these are new builds & everyone moved in the same time) two neighbours have literally walked straight onto my driveway from one house to another and walked past my living room window multiple times a day as well as their kids.
They were already friends as prior to moving here and managed to secure a house on the same street by pure luck.
It got really bad that I paid over £300 for some big planters which temporarily stopped all this.
But the kids would/will still ride up and down on their bikes/ scooters the other side but it wasn't right near my living room window.
My neighbour's plants were planted just before my driveway so she often is on my driveway and right near my front door tending to her plants.
I know this isn't her fault as it's the way the houses were designed but it really makes me feel uncomfortable and as if I have no privacy.
The other day her and another neighbour were back and forth on that side of the driveway doing some weeding. She can stick to her own side but for some reason chooses to come over onto my bit.
The planters actually fell during the extreme winds and I have had to move them as they almost fell on my neighbours car.
These are those big trellis planters.
Since the planters have been moved it's all back to square one again.
Convos by my living room window standing on my drive way.
I have told them and the kids so many times that it's my privacy and your standing by my window but it still happens.
I contacted my Housing Officer and she came down and stood outside and told me "well it can happen anywhere, maybe you should try to private rent" and walked off.
All this was captured on my neighbours Ring door bell as she asked me about it.
There was no discretion in her visit to address these issues.
The driveway is allocated to my house and is not a communal area at all.
I spoke to a customer service advisor the other day on the Customer Services number for my HA and she was astonished at what I am experiencing and at the lack of support form my HO.
She advised me to re register back with the Local Authority which I now have done and waiting to hear if I have been accepted.
I really want to make a complaint as my HO has been useless and very rude telling me "well you won't get a move through us".
I know there are more extreme cases than mine but I was a victim of a crime a few years back as I suffer from anxiety and all this just makes me feel on edge all the time.
My neighbour also plays loud music in her garden and she she gets back from clubbing.
When I closed my curtains the other day as one of the neighbours cats ( who I have never even spoken too) was in my bush by my window and literally looking into my house one of my little one's started crying so it affecting my kids as well now.
I want to make a complaint to my HA as I just feel nothing is being done to help me.
