Ignore them and move as soon as you can. It’s honestly not going to get any better and they are obviously low lives.

We have spoken to them previously several times regarding the dogs, and asking them to move their vehicles when they’ve blocked us in and requested they stop parking in front of it. They still don’t listen, though. My boyfriend went to work this morning in the car, no sooner he got to the end of the street, they moved one of their cars in front of our house. Weirdos!
I’ve said to my partner I think I’m going to put a note through their door and then see what happens from there. At least with a note I can prove what has been said and moves any room for allegations/denial of contact.
Unfortunately nothing happens, because I've now found out that the neighbours have refused to continueWell that’s terrible and a waste of time. What happens now? Sorry it was crap
My neighbours have bi-fold doors and they leave them open all time time, even when it's cold. I can always hear the TV. Plus the dog flies outside and barks every time a bird farts in my garden.This kind of thing is happening to us and we are gritting our teeth until we have exchanged contract, then I might start yelling “shut up” when the dog barks every 15 minutes and they have the patio doors open practically 24/7 forcing me to listen to every swear word, argument and conversation in their sad and chavy life !
Reverse your car in. If scratches appear on the other side, it’s got to be them. Tcut them out and put a camera up, then you have proofJust bought a new car and popped it in my parking space. In the space of a week there are two scratches on the rear door which align with next doors car rear door…. When the first appeared I gave them the benefit of the doubt but I’ve not been out and the second appeared a few cm above the other. I appreciate the spaces are narrow, their car is large and they have a toddler to get out but it’s frustrating!!! I can’t park any further over as mine is the last space before a fenced area.
How would I mention something without sounding accusatory as they are, in the times we have spoken, really polite. I’ve never had a “nice” car before so I’m a little upset.
Sorry you’re having to endure this. We have a really barky dog next door. (Actually surrounded by multiple dogs from all sides since lockdown but most of them seem to keep them inside all day which is another welfare issue altogether 🫤) The dog loses his mind any time anyone walks past or there’s movement. We live by a pavement near a popular wooded walking area and there’s lots of squirrels and birds so you can imagine the frequency of him being botheredI don't know how much more crazy dog barking I can put up with. I'm not blaming the dog, it's the owners who are the issue. I actually feel sorry for the poor thing having to live with them. I've put up with it for over a year of it barking every time it hears me in the garden. It seems particularly angry if I'm speaking to someone. The bark is really angry too, not that it makes much difference, but it growls and sounds like it's very worked up.
The dog is also stress weeing on the the owner's lawn and they seem clueless as to what the brown patches are.
Another neighbour who can see into their garden says the dog barks at my fence and the owner just stands and watches it.
This is the same neighbour that I've had harassment issues from for many years. Feels like she's now using the dog to get at me.
I've tried the anti-dog barking videos on YouTube but it doesn't make much difference, also I'm worried I'm stressing the dog even more.
Does anyone have any other anti-dog barking tactics?
It’s the only language some people understand. Not so easy to do when someone owns their house.This might get me barred ….but we dealt with extremely noisy neighbours who were having there music on between 12 midnight until 3/4 am every bloody night waking about 6 of us neighbours and all of us had work we all complained to the council and sadly london borough council were unable to do anything after writing to the family they weren’t interested and it carried on so we all decided that it was a waste of time even complaining to the council anymore, one of us knew some extremely unpleasant ,heavy built,hard as nails gentlemen who one night when the music was at full blast smashed the front door to open it ( they did knock but obviously couldn’t of heard through the noise) went straight into the lounge with the residents who were now in total shock unplugged the stereo picked it up took it outside smashed it with a mallet and advised the noisy neighbours if they ever make that sort of noise again the mallet will be over their head !!!!!!!!! They moved out 3 weeks later. I’m not bragging I’m just saying that ppl like that there is only one way to stop them making countless neighbours life a misery

Impressive!! Like others have said sometimes it’s the only language people understand…and if it gets to you that much (as this clearly had) then I think it’s honestly fair enough. Admire your courage, genuinely!This might get me barred ….but we dealt with extremely noisy neighbours who were having there music on between 12 midnight until 3/4 am every bloody night waking about 6 of us neighbours and all of us had work we all complained to the council and sadly london borough council were unable to do anything after writing to the family they weren’t interested and it carried on so we all decided that it was a waste of time even complaining to the council anymore, one of us knew some extremely unpleasant ,heavy built,hard as nails gentlemen who one night when the music was at full blast smashed the front door to open it ( they did knock but obviously couldn’t of heard through the noise) went straight into the lounge with the residents who were now in total shock unplugged the stereo picked it up took it outside smashed it with a mallet and advised the noisy neighbours if they ever make that sort of noise again the mallet will be over their head !!!!!!!!!

I'd imagine the rest of the neighbours feel the same too!Impressive!! Like others have said sometimes it’s the only language people understand…and if it gets to you that much (as this clearly had) then I think it’s honestly fair enough. Admire your courage, genuinely!
Yes what the hell is it with peoples obsession with having doors open all year round?! We had a previous neighbour with kids from hell that used a bungee cord to keep it open (real classy) all year even in gales & rain and it went straight in to their living room. I open a window and a plague of flies enters right away, leaves blowing in and dirt. Not to mention when anything is open all we can hear is other peopleMy neighbours have bi-fold doors and they leave them open all time time, even when it's cold. I can always hear the TV.

This may sound cruel but get a water bottle and spray it through the fence (if you can) myne hates water and this works with her. She now stops as soon as she sees it.I don't know how much more crazy dog barking I can put up with. I'm not blaming the dog, it's the owners who are the issue.

I feel your pain. 5:30am-3pm daily, plus evenings if they go out. Like you say, it’s not the dog’s fault. It’s so selfish. Council wrote a letter then closed the case. Neighbour denies it.I don't know how much more crazy dog barking I can put up with. I'm not blaming the dog, it's the owners who are the issue.

I leave our back door open all year roundYes what the hell is it with peoples obsession with having doors open all year round?!

We are the in the same position. Just recently moved to a detached house after years of nightmare neighbours. We’ve moved from a house that was warm & modern and we’d spent a lot on it to a house that is cold, old, and needs a lot of work, but I’m honestly so much happier already. We can fix all those things but I’ve learned that no matter what you try you can’t fix bad neighbours. They just will never understand the impact they have on othersWe moved house yesterday, away from the noisy neighbours. We keep standing on the doorstep and listening to the silence. My husband heard an owl hooting. It makes a refreshing change from our former nextdoors shouting fuck and cunt every 10 minutes. I’d like to to punish them in some way for affecting my life and mental health so badly. I honestly thought I’d lost the ability to feel happy. I could cry with happiness now. It’s so unfair that someone can affect you in this way.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but if someone wants to buy their council house, perhaps the council ought to ask the neighbours before they are allowed to buy. The woman on the other side moved in and made extensive renovations to her house, she wasn’t there long and now she’s renting it out. She was probably fed up of the swearing and footballs being booted against her fence all day. The man who lives at the back has started keeping the footballs that go in, before the little shits can climb over and get them.
My advice to anyone who has scummy neighbours, if you can move, do it. You won’t realise how much it’s affecting you until you are free of it.
