Your Rights Under the Protection From Harassment Act 1997

@Kam ... The guy did not commit a crime.Although it was wrong of him to say he'd kill you and go on to say strangle.Sometimes someone might not mean it when they say they would k*** you, however using the term s****** is overboard. There's got to be a reason that they are so angry though. Which probably begins with you at your window and having your camera out.They may think you're the culprit of a very much larger and serious issue.Protect yourself and your family at all costs and pray for the troubled soul who wronged you.And by all accounts, do not take-up in gossip about them with the neighbors and don't make a mistake by posting about it on a website (especially if details added are false)

I am registered as disabled and I a wheelchair when unable to use my crutches. I also suffer from mental health problems all of which are being made worse due to the harassment I am suffering at the hands of my neighbour above. I have lived in this property for 29 years and it has been adapted inside and outside to accommodate my disabilities. My front door entrance cannot accommodate a ramp as there is a communal entrance used by all six properties. Therefore social services and my local council put a door in my front room and a wheelchair platform and ramp which leads into my garden and then out to the street. Since the neighbour upstairs moved in my life has become unbearable. Said neighbour used to work at nights. I refrained from all unnecessary noise and activities for years during the day for years, including having the grass cut in my garden until I knew he was awake. He is now unemployed and has put laminate flooring down and stomps around on it both day and night. He used to play extremely loud music constantly, and I reported this to our both mi e and his landlord, which is the local council. After providing the relevant proof regarding his behaviour, the music stopped. Now all these years later he is again making my life hell. He insisted on parking his car within the “H” line marking my small dropped kerb continuously until my friends blocked his car in in the hope he would knock on my door giving me the opportunity to discuss the problem with him. Instead of doing that, he just left his car in that spot until he was no longer blocked in, which was 2 days. Myaelf and a friend were out one day and when we returned, his car was once again parked slightly within the “H” line which stops my car or any car I am in from being able to park a car therefore not allowing me direct access from the street into my garden and property. My friend therefore parked close to his car but not blocking him in. Whilst she was doing this, a white car being driven by a woman pulled up alongside and the woman asked if we had a problem with the man who lives above me and why my friend was deliberately parking so close to said neighbours car. Both my friend and I explained that we were actually making sure that the car in front could get out, and that there was enough space for other cars to park behind. I was sitting in my mobility scooter at this moment in time, and whilst talking to the woman, who had parked her car, and exited her car to confront us on the street, said neighbour appeared in his window upstairs and began shouting. The woman who was confronting us was said neighbours sister. As the discussion continued and become more intense, said neighbour left his flat and came onto the street where he joined in the heated discussion. During the discussion I reminded him that since he moved in I had deliberately refrained from allowing or participating in any noisy activities within the boundaries of my property in order to not disturb

Moved into a council flat after 17 yrs on the list ,& within 3 weeks was attacked on the stairs by the guy below me ,who also got another neighbour involved ,who was clearly being manipulated ,& was out of his comfort zone ,trying to say I've woken him up at 11,33,Saturday morning yet I'm 2 floors up ,the attacker was listening, then a week later amazon delivery stolen ,& superglue in the lock ,& other situations, the councils take there time to actually act despite how many times you have reported this Antisocial behaviour, & bullying ,finally the police got to see him ,& heson record ,& I now resort to using my video on the phone when in the flats.Im not doing anything nor being Antisocial, & this seems like paranoid & hateful behaviour on his part ,why who knows ,who cares ,I just want to live ,& not be targeted, he's also done it with other tenants.

My neighbour has persistently & repeatedly targeted & terrorised me for over 11 years. Followed process etc re police but there’s been no consequences to his actions & he’s been allowed to get away with it. He’s a disgusting pervert. I have not felt safe for years. He stands there staring at me, he’s assaulted me, abused me, threatened me & damaged my property. That’s just a few things he’s done over the years. There’s also been noise nuisance eg drilling on party wall from 7am to midnight. Music & dogs barking for hours on end. I’ve taken all advice re my own security but still it continues.

I have been subjected to repeatedly to unnecessary loud cupboard banging from next door neighbours. For More than 15 years plus. The father has repeatedly played a tuba deliberatly in the hallway to harass me by noise, when. Anynormal person would play in lounge for own enjoyment In fact you would think they have been payed by somone to harass us.Because it's constant un necessary noise from them

My elderly mother is being bullied and intimidated by a neighbour. I have reported this to the housing association and have logged a complaint. The housing association has ‘advised’ the horrible neighbour not to speak to my mother or have anything to do with her. But now the horrible neighbour is sending messages through another neighbour. My mother is extremely distressed to the point she doesn’t want to even go out because she has to walk past the horrible neighbours house. Can I get the police involved??

There's some gay guys that live in apartments for Jeep underneath for my brother-in-law that harassed me day and night and also burned things on the ceiling which is causing me to stress spray things on my food I can't get comfortable I can't cook I can't do anything I believe they stole my insurance my social security card and they're trying to kill me for life

I'm being harassed by these neighbors every single day they spray deadly chemicals through the floor through the walls and I put them and the police does nothing what is my next step I truly know that they're trying to kill

A neighbour through the wall from me has had a listening device on me for 3years, there's 5 of them in their home I am on my own, they know all my business and my family's business, with them listening before I knew, they started asking for money before they would stop , I was silly and paid a sum of money to them, of course they didn't stop they want more money, which I've refused, they won't stop harassing me, I don't know what to do.

Hi everyone am on because I am getting severely harassed by my crazy neighbour. He gave me a serious kicking when I was 18yrs old. Am now 47. I am a terminal cancer patient who has sever breathing problems. Am in & out of hospital all the time with my breathing & my chest n heart hurt most days. Anyway I got a house of the council who said it was an elderly person who lived in it but it wasn't it was him, my ex husband told him about some of my health issues so he no's I have terminal cancer & breathing problems so he's decided to get aload of different chemicals put in through cracks that he's caused he's ruined his own ceiling to get in the space between his ceiling n my flooring. This is really serious I stress but no one will help not the council not the police, u no no one has even been in to check his ceilings. I have had around near 19 hsptl admissions. Am so so scared he's taking it easy to far. He's even worse at nite of he thinks ur asleep. I have had to give up sleeping in my bedroom and I can clearly see the mess he's made of my floors. I don't no who to turn to to ask for help but if u look up the justice ,& criminal act of 1997 u have rights.pity no one takes anything u say serious. He's acting like a victim here Believe me he's no victum

And they also have a drone to stalk us snd whomever. They would have it outside my 10 yr old daughters window. They bought one Christmas.

Stated 30 years ago. Woman next door would sit on a rock at back of development hiding behind trees. Then started building little building snd would run out w kids to hide behind snd watch and listen. All along has cameras and husband works where my husband and I do.Constantly running out when we are outside to listen. Has turn off property markers. The people across from us snd beside them have their cameras linked together. She’s a realtor. Gets worse when we renovate and have house improvements.Narcissistic. Rude comments.Their job is IT so now garage door not working. Had to replace because motor burned out with no reason.Have to force it to close.So many things. I know Jesus will see us through this and I pray for all experiencing this stalking and bullying.This is in Concord NC in Carolando.In Jesus Name, Amen

I am being harassed and stalked by my neighbour. This has gone on for seven years now since he moved in. He threw a brick through my conservatory, smashed my fences twice killed my barn owls and smashed their aviary. The police would do nothing despite cctv instead they told me to take it down, since then he tried to run me over, shouts non stop abuse outside my house, films me laughing hit my daughters car three times with his van, shunted it along the street, he said we can’t park outside our house as he wants to even though he can park outside his but it blocks his view. Tried accessing my network with his name constantly popping up on my tv asking to join, constantly laughs at me if I have to leave the house which is rare as I am disabled and still recovering from cancer, told all the neighbours I was dead. I am scared of him and have now shut myself in the house as don’t like being filmed in my wheelchair can’t use my garden as he films there as well. I just wish I was dead, I have even put my house up for sale but he mows films any potential buyers so the estate agent said he can’t have it on his books anymore. The police won’t help despite constantly being asked to.

good morning. I apologize for bothering you with a minor problem in addition to the problems you have in general, but it is necessary and worrying for me and my fiancee. The father of our new neighbors at no 53 Astor Street L4 5RR Walton, Livepool brutally knocked on the door one morning at around 8-9am scaring my fiancee, shouting at her and saying racist things about some noises at us in the house from the previous day. My fiancee underwent 2 herniated disc operations and being under a very strong drug treatment for several years, it affected her very badly, affecting her mentally quite badly. She was and still is very scared by this man who brutally knocked on our door talking to her very harshly and racist about trivial noises that we respect in accordance with the laws in force. We don't want to complain about their noises because we each have our needs as people. We just want to inform you and at the same time be sure of our safety. Thank you in advance

We are an educated, kind and respectful family who have had endless problems with our neighbour since we moved into our home 12 years ago. Our children are kind and well mannered, and like any children, love to play outside in our garden. Our neighbour hasn’t said a pleasant thing to us in all our time living here, despite us being good neighbours. He is in his 70’s and my children have more social and emotional intelligence than he does. Through years of passive aggressive comments we have stayed calm and respectful. We have stayed polite on many occasions when we have been verbally abused. Our neighbour is now using bullying tactics and we feel harrassed…he is shouting abuse over the fence, swearing at our children for being too loud (just a normal level of noise for children enjoying their garden), throwing false accusations, muttering at us when we pass etc. During his latest outburst he was blatantly drunk and I felt threatened when he approached me. More than anything, I am upset for my children, as he scares them. They feel like they’ve done something wrong when in fact they’re just being normal children. We have brought our children up to be thoughtful and respectful and they are scared to play in their own garden, for fear of our neighbour shouting at them. We have given him the opportunity to speak to us respectfully but he refuses to do this. We have put up with his behaviour for years, but it is now harassment and we are fearful for our safety. My children should not be made to feel like this. I also suspect he is smoking drugs which is concerning. I’d be grateful for any help please as I do not want us or our children to be subjected to this abuse any longer.

My ex mother in law has had problems with her neighbour downstairs she has been attacked by the older son and now by her 2 dogs bare in mind she's 85 they torment her on a daily. Smear dog pooh over her door many times but when ever she has anyone over they won't bother her only when she's on her own. Police done nothing RSPCA done nothing and housing officer done nothing

I have had a continuous run ins with a certain neighbour where I live. She seems to target myself and my son all the time with regards to my son who is 10 and is old enough to know his rights and wrongs but she seems to target myself and him as we are people who keeps our lives private and I am a single parent for my son so he's surrounded by adults most of the time and picking things up when I've had conversations with other adults that visit us. But the neighbour I'm having trouble with her son of 7 plays with my son regularly and my son has even said himself I think I'm too old to play with him which I agree but it's hard as they both attend the same school and we are neighbours but she doesn't stop targeting me and my son when there is other children around the area we live. She has called me a gossip and my child should know better we don't do anything wrong but she's constantly trying to make out it's because of her race as she is (black/Caribbean ethnic) she's 25 with two children and I am 39 with the one child. I'm getting fed up with her attitude and targeting. It's mentally draining and making me sick and I'm wanting to move out of my privately rented home whilst she's in a council house but why should I just because she doesn't like me or my son . If I get in touch with the council about her they don't provide the correct services to move her on somewhere else the whole neighbourhood can't deal with her either please help what to do to get her and her children moved away and stop targeting innocent people/neighbours

Had an argument with my neighbour years ago after she'd been drinking/smoking she took an instant dislike to me when she moved in and now she's talking to the other neighbours about me, telling them not to talk to me and turning them against me. What can I do?

Hi I live in a detached house on a quiet st. We have been repeatedly reported to the council who after 9 yrs concluded that all the companies were malicious & unsubstantiated as the complainants didn’t fill in log sheets etc no evidence. We were reported for installing a wood burner that we had been using for 3 yrs & in the house when we bought it. We have been able to prove each complaint is false.These neighbors and their daughter who is a police officer have together targeted six other neighbors in our st and st behind. All the complaints against them were unfounded completely made up. To make matters worse when the council have investigated each complaint she gets her colleagues to pay a visit about civil matters without incident number to harass & intimidate neighbors. It’s been awful but the council take no account of the history the 80+ complaints and the police completely cover for her.

I have a guy who has threatened to kill me and my family I have taken my phone out and recorded him saying I'm going to kill you and strangle you I was Inside my house with the window open and recorded the threats. Is it illegal for me to do this? Has the guy Committed a crime? Please can someone help me.

We own our property as does our neighbor. I am a veteran with ptsd and am constantly harassed and am on video camera from her home.Cops no help.what now. I can't go outside without panic attacks.
