julesann   10 #1 Posted June 6, 2012 Are you listening all night possibly to people (I think theres 2) running about the stairs at Ventnor Court?  I've been very patient in the past but now after weeks of disrupted sleep am getting quite annoyed!  What can I do?  Confrontation is not an option as I live alone, but I have to say am getting quite frightened in my own home!  These nuts are doing this almost every night now!

Ms Macbeth   73 #6 Posted June 7, 2012 Try ringing 101. It's a non emergency number for the police and the local authority.  http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/crimejusticeandthelaw/reportingcrimeandantisocialbehaviour/dg_185338 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Bubble3082 Â Â 10 #7 Posted June 7, 2012 Tape record the noise if you can and make a note of the date and time. Ring 101 and tell them you feel unsafe as you're a vulnerable woman all alone (exagerrate if you have to). Ring them every 1/2 hour if you have to until they come out. I wonder if the council would be any good? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
spartacus   10 #8 Posted June 7, 2012 Has Ventnor Court a secure entry system? If so, then it's likely to be residents. If not, it might be outsiders or residents.  Do you hear doors slamming or music playing? If so, it's probably residents. If not, it's probably outsiders.  In either case, as others have said, report it straightaway as a suspected burglary to 101.

angel22 Â Â 10 #9 Posted June 7, 2012 Some people are idiots. Why would they waste their time running up and down stairs all night! Have they really got nothing better to do?? Â They're probably doing it so people come out and confront them. Maybe if they're just ignored, they'll stop it and go away? Â Have a word with your neighbours and try and get as many people as possible to report it. Surely they'd have to do something about it if everyone kept complaining?

irenewilde   10 #12 Posted June 8, 2012 Is it just the sound of running or can you hear shouting and/or talking too? If it's just running maybe it's someone training or taking some exercise. Maybe the night time is the only chance they have to do it and they don't fancy going outside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
