r/NeighborsFromHell - They Almost Made Me Move Out, Then I Got Revenge! - #592

hello and welcome back to another kcc video i'm rob and i hope you're having a wonderful day today today we're gonna jump into a brand new subreddit for kcc neighbors from hell our first story comes to us from ulfr neighbor gets expensive smart home appliances installed on wi-fi with no password calls the police when i let them know that's bad let's jump right in hi all i remembered this story from a year or two ago while i was browsing for a spotlight i could turn on and off from my phone not related to the story but my dog wants to go to war with some foxes who keep accidentally turning the motion activated spotlight which fuzzface considers dire provocation i was farting around with a crappy laptop's wifi card and saw i had an access point i could connect to that wasn't there before signal was so-so and i had my own internet so i didn't bother trying to use that one so i sort of just forgot about it about a week later i was unplugging some stuff and accidentally unplugged my wireless router and while it was unplugged my phone found the next accessible wi-fi access point which was the one i'd found previously and not really bothered with not my circus not my monkeys you know then my phone pops up saying i need to install all of these smart home apps to make the appliances work which didn't make sense i'm enough of an i.t guy to know that unless there's a burning need for it home automation isn't really the best idea absolutely no telling who can access that information these people had their garage doors heating and air conditioning lights interior and exterior televisions and refrigerator hooked up to a wi-fi with no password in the industry we call that dumb as a bag of hammers once i plug the router back in to appease the suddenly irate family members wondering where the internet went i hooked up my dog and took him for a walk before i left the house i installed the smart home app and turned on one exterior spotlight and then looked for the house it was attached to presumably if i was able to use their wifi they were in line of sight once i saw the light that was on i turned it off to make sure house was on the next street over directly behind my house there's a huge hill in the way that the builders left because mother nature didn't flatten my part of the country as a courtesy so lots can be next to each other without being accessible that meant going the long way around my dog is an adorable 35 pound cockapoo who has much much better people skills than i do when i have to go talk to people i don't know he comes along because he's about as threatening as a wet noodle don't tell him i said that and i can't be that bad a man if my dog is as awesome as he is op provided some dog tax so here it is so we make our way over to the neighbor's house and i knock on their door a nice older lady answers it old enough to have moved out kids but not old enough to be considered a q-tip in my humble opinion she forgets to ask what i want and it immediately goes gooey all over my dog and her husband hears the adorable appreciation sounds coming from his front door and investigates he too is floored by my dog's awesomeness there's about a minute of him getting all the attention and i thought building a rapport before i remembered why i'm here i asked how they like their new smart home stuff and they immediately start to get weirded out husband says we'd like it just fine how do you know we got that stuff please don't take this the wrong way but you don't have a password on your wireless my phone connected to it by accident and told me about all the stuff you had installed wife [ __ ] her head to one side and husband's brow starts developing a thunderous quality i start talking faster i'm just here to let you know that you really should put a password on your wi-fi or anyone can use it to do stuff like open your garage doors husband's brow is now in full fury mode and he opens his mouth to presumably shout at me but before he can the wife says oh that's what the installer guy was talking about he kept saying i needed to encrypt the thingy or something like that we've never bothered with a password because it's a pain in the butt to set up and remember husband has gone from thunderous fury to bewilderment and he looks at his wife and says encrypt the what now i don't feel like getting voluntold to set up these people's network and appliances for them so i say okay gotta go bye i power walk away from their house and once clear we mosey back towards my house about two hours later someone starts knocking up the front door to my house i live in an in-law apartment in the basement of my parents house so that's not my door my mother answers the door and then stomps down to the door to my part of the house throws it open and tells me the police are here again in a frosty voice i hustle up the stairs and there's officer dave not his real name but the only officer my town at that point had who knew enough about computers to actually have a conversation with me without getting a must-smashed nerd face i said hi dave what's he cuts me off before i can even finish you promised me you were done with this crap after that whole main street thing you effing promised and now i look like a butthole whoever had set up the timing on the stoplights for the main road through my town after some pretty serious construction did an absolutely awful job and traffic was horrific me and a locksmith friend decided to fix the problem after reporting the problem to town hall got nowhere we didn't break anything he picked the lock and i hacked the light and then we locked up when we were done we got caught on the last light only reason i didn't go to jail was because dave backed me up and made everyone wait a day to see if traffic was better which it was i then promised him no more shenanigans what i haven't done anything says i then why the hell am i getting calls about you opening and closing people's garage doors and turning their lights on and off to be fair that did sound like the sort of thing i do not to break into someone's house just to mess with them i'm mischievous not evil and then the light dawns i point and ask did you get called by the people living in that house because i went over there a little while ago to tell them that they needed to put a password on their wi-fi only thing i did was turn on a spotlight to see which house it was nothing more than that swear to god they don't have a password there's a thud as dave facepalms i let out a yup in sympathy he sighs and says stay out of trouble and i wave by turns out the husband called the police and gave a vague description of me and the dog and said i lived nearby and one of the other cops gave dave a hard time about him cutting me slack before he drove out to talk to me the couple got a call back to tell them the issue is resolved and please secure your wi-fi two days later there's a password on their wi-fi and we all lived happily ever after except for getting the stank eye from that couple whenever i walked by as someone who's done a lot of tech support over the phone talking with older people who have absolutely no clue what's going on with electronics yeah i just don't want to volunteer anymore make the odd exception for my parents here and there but when it comes to other people it's just not worth the hassle do me a quick favor have a look down below the video if that subscribe button is still red it means you're not actually subscribed to the kcc channel please hit that subscribe button for more daily reddit stories our second story today comes to us from am proxy my neighbor is obsessed with the property line always goes outside when i'm outside never leaves the house to go anywhere and has screamed at me on a few occasions what do i do let's jump right in i'm a woman in my early 30s living alone my next door neighbor is also a woman in her early 30s living alone we live in a typical suburban neighborhood long story short i noticed pretty early on that she's obsessed with her property lines as i witnessed her yell at another neighbor about it roughly a month or so after she moved in at that time i thought to myself okay this woman is nuts but she's not going to become my problem because i never go anywhere near the property line hell i don't even spend time outside in my own backyard because i still have to build myself a patio so i figured i'll just be friendly with her and she'll see how chill and easy going i am and we'll be cool with each other well i was wrong come december after our first big snowstorm my plow truck driver plowed my driveway she flipped out telling me that some of the snow that was moved during the plow job had rolled over onto her property then she actually said i'm gonna draw a line in the snow and if anything goes over that line we're gonna have a problem after that i tried to explain to her in a stern but polite manner that the snow was not on her land and that i was on a work call we both work from home she reacted to that by marching over onto my property and screaming at me on my own front porch she screamed bloody murder in my face in a manner i had never seen before she demanded that i take a walk with her to examine the snow so that she could prove some of it was on her land i was feeling pretty threatened at this point so i said i'm not walking anywhere with you then she screamed then we're going to have an effing problem do you understand me i said nothing because i was in a state of complete shock i just stared at her in amazement and then she leaned in and screamed this blood curdling scream do you effing understand me so i slammed the door in her face and decided to avoid her at all costs from then on in the days that followed she proceeded to shovel her driveway and the sidewalk in front of her house even on days when there was no snow left to shovel screaming at me and my house the entire time she's shoveling she can see me through my window as the desk i work from faces the window come spring i go for walks with my friends in the neighborhood when the weather is nice she ran at us with a weed whacker as we passed in front of her house screaming you start your walks when you think i'm inside you can't avoid me i filed a police report after this incident on her more calm days when she's not doing one of those screaming episodes she'll go outside whenever i go outside and pretend to work on a bush that's on our property line i hired a landscaper to cut my grass because i don't feel comfortable in my own yard she went outside on my landscaper's first day on the job and talk to him about me basically i can't do anything at my house without her reacting to it or somehow finding a way to insert herself into the situation she makes everything her business on her best days she's just behaving in a nosy annoying manner but on her worst days she's screaming at me and making me feel threatened as if i'm about to be physically attacked oh and she also never leaves her house to go anywhere ever she has her groceries and anything else she needs delivered to her house she literally never gets into her car to drive anywhere she is always home waiting watching and before you say it no i'm not selling my house i was here first and i put so much money into renovating it to make it into my dream house i refused to be run out of my own neighborhood oh and i'm getting a privacy fence put up next month i don't really like the look of fences but i don't think i'll be comfortable going into my own yard until i get one has anyone ever dealt with someone like this why is she doing all this is she potentially dangerous opie added on an edit after the story it says i feel dumb that i didn't mention this earlier but yes i did have a few cameras installed around my house right after i moved in before she moved in given that i'm a single woman living alone the front camera has actually caught all the incidents that happened in the front yard including the december screaming incident and weed whacker incident and i have been saving and documenting everything in case i need to show it to police later on i recently bought a new camera that will specifically focus on the property line in the backyard there's a comment down below this story that pretty much sums everything up that op needs to do number one get cameras cover every angle number two get mirror reflecting film for your windows three get that fence built as high as legally possible four stand your ground don't give that psychotic bee an inch five keep reporting her for every harassing or violent incident and create a paper trail not much else i can say to wrap that one up except op i hope things turn out well for you our next story today comes to us from front tooth 1508 neighbors kid and dog ruined 30 of my tulips let's jump right in this all started last fall when i planted 30 tulips in the large flower bed in front of my house since then i've caught my neighbor's dog running a mock digging up my bulbs at that time i let my neighbor know and it seemed to be handled and over with though once my tulip started breaking soil it only got worse the little girl next door started taking the dog with her to play in my garden play meaning letting her dog eat my tulips while she rips apart the leaves once i saw this i quickly ran outside and politely explained to her why i'm not okay with this again she apologized and i thought it was handled and done boy was i wrong for the last month the little girl and the dog have been having a free-for-all in my flower bed every time i catch her and run outside she darts off like it's some kind of game i've tried getting in touch with the parent again but i feel as if i'm being purposely ignored i eventually reached out to the landlord to just send a little friendly reminder out which they did but now i'm at my wit's end yesterday afternoon i watched the little girl next door take a stick to my last standing tulips like a baseball bat pedal flying everywhere and they all snapped at the stems i was beside myself i also knew i was too upset to confront anyone at that moment gave myself some time to cool down and then went over to knock on the door and talk to the parent no answer even though i know they were home at this point i don't know what to do or if there is anything i can do our landlord is aware of everything except what happened yesterday my landlord even gifted me new flowers to plant but they also got destroyed in yesterday's reckoning i know at the end of the day it's just flowers but i honestly had a mental breakdown this morning when i went out to try and salvage them and realized they are all done for all 30 of my tulips that took six to seven months to bloom destroyed well op it's obvious that the neighbors aren't seeing the flowers the same way you do i would speak to your landlord again because they seem to be helpful and mention the dollar value of the flowers plus the labor that you put in get them to make it clear to your neighbor that there's value here and they have destroyed that value our last story today comes to us from nathan the samosa i finally won my neighbors have been anti-social buttholes for the last four months now they're scared to breathe in their own flat let's jump right in i've been waiting for this moment since our upstairs neighbors moved in mid-october an hmo property occupied by a bunch of entitled students whose mummies and daddies were paying for rent would scream and shout at each other run stomp and jump on our roof play bass heavy music at all hours of the day and have parties during a global pandemic of all times every other night i went upstairs to open a dialogue with them the week they moved in but they were buttholes to me from the minute they opened the door they blamed all of my issues on the old building as if listening to you imitate a siren at 7am is the same as hearing you turn on the tap the more i tried to talk to them the more hostile they got swearing at me in hysterics and beginning to jump on my roof deliberately to get a reaction from me unfortunately for them i don't play these games i bought a decibel reader and every time they made consistent noise above 15 decibels even though it's police matter at plus 10 i'm generous like that i would make a note of what i was hearing at what times and report it to the police i contacted my landlord and had emails on record detailing that my neighbor's landlord had been made aware of their tenant's anti-social behavior i send emails once a week to my local authorities and hmo department detailing the events they had guests kicked out of their flat by police on three different occasions they didn't care though they assumed it was my word against theirs and went on for months lying to the police council and landlords saying i was making it all up good thing i had 50 hours of audio recorded of them making excessive noise and deliberately trying to make my life difficult the minute i heard from hmo enforcement i sent an email to my landlord with just a small sample of audio clips showing them raising the sound levels in my room to those of a small auditorium or a quartet in a chamber hall he then sent an email to my neighbor's landlord with evidence that the tenants were lying to not just her but every authority that tried to get involved it's been a week now and i haven't even heard someone cough they're starting to realize that no it's not my word against theirs it's my mountain of evidence and stubborn ability to stay quiet against their desperate and obvious attempts to not be held accountable those idiots are crapping themselves every time they make a floorboard creak and they deserve it for some of them this is probably the first time in their lives they're being held accountable for something and facing the consequences of their crappy behavior even if hmo sees they're making zero noise now i have all the evidence that this is only the case because authorities are getting involved they've made it perfectly clear that it's possible to live in this building without being a butthole and if it doesn't stay that way i'm getting them effing evicted yes i could have moved flat yes i could have sent evidence earlier but it's a matter of principle i didn't want them to just get a slap on the wrist i wanted to make them regret ever being a butthole to their neighbors in the first place and it worked i have to admit i never even thought of getting a decibel reader to see just how much noise the idiots that used to live underneath us made i'm not in an apartment anymore but if anybody i know ever has problem with noise i'm gonna recommend this to them check out all four ops at the links in the description down below thanks for watching have a wonderful day we'll see you tomorrow
