Good to hear.

Excellent to hear that things went your way... I had to take my old landlord to the tribunal.. all sorts of lies came out there.. I was rather shocked at her display.. the adjudicator tried to get me to split the costs.. after trying to be civil and said yeah.. the landlord refused and wanted me to pay more.. so I said no way.. I refuse to be anymore reasonable and that I'll just abide by the abjudicator's ruling..... in my favour.. yay =)

Yeah, I was actually amazed at the lies the property manager told. The first one being that she told the judge that I told her that I had not seen my neighbour with a camera, like WTF?!! Secondly she said that I had yelled and screamed abuse at them. For most of the phone conversations we had I was at work, where the office is "open plan" like hell I was going to be letting all my colleagues know what was going on... The other converstion was had while I was with my boyfriend, I never yelled. Hung up the phone on them yes, but that was because I WAS going to yell.
But the adjudicator was awesome, she basically told the property manager to get stuffed. To be honest I was amazed that it all went my way, guess I was lucky or something.

Glad to hear it Str8. I knew you would come out on top. Now you can celebrate with a ride tomorrow!! Good luck finding a new place and a nice landlord (there are some out there).

From my experience in court the side who usually presents the most credible and professional display is the one who wins. Except when it's the cops you're up against, cos it seems they never lie in court.

In a family matter our side were the ones who presented as the educated civilised and professional bunch. The other side shot themselves in the foot by being nasty and vindictive, always trying to paint me as an arsehole, instead of concentrating on the issue at hand. We didn't even bother refuting their statements, we just stated the facts and left it at that. It worked.

As a landlord myself I think I should have a say in here...



Good on you. No-one deserves to have a neighbour like that and your landlord clearly has a problem (dressing as 40yo guy with a camera)

[ManDownUnder]

Im very tempted to go and visit the new tenant after they move in and tell them, but not to sure if its the right move?

Answer me this - are you genuinely concerned for their safety...

[DemonWolf]

Good on you... and yeah its better to keep a level head.. tell the facts and dont get into petty mud slinging.. it just wont help the cause.

Glad you are rid of that place..

Glad you're outta there! What a freak..!
Hope the shift goes well - look after "precious" cargo, won't you?
(ulterior motives? who? me?)

hehe, dont worry mate the PS2's all packed away and ready to go!

MDU- not too sure if it was because I work for the MOJ and the guy has physcholigical issues with Govt depts and that is why he was doing it, or wether the guy is just a complete freak! It may not be worth stirring things up, if you know what I mean!

Congratulations on winning and hope you find another place soon. We have problems with our neighbour too - He doesn't like noise of any sort (Motorbikes, drums, music, talking etc etc) so we make as much noise as possible.

[Swoop]

Fabulous to hear Str8 Jacket! Carma and just being honest at the hearing works.

Please simply mention the circumstances of your leaving to the new tennant of the flat if it is another female. At least your concience will be clear then.

Onya!

[Fart]

You can still go and do it after the 31st Dec....
Oh and remove all your number plates so the slimeball can't record your rego plates on camera...
I wouldn't want the lovely lads/gals in blue to come a door knocking.....on your doorstep afterwards...

Are you organising another organised ride?

[Big Chim]

Just goes to show if people work together a solution can be found, now that landlord finds himself having to fit the bill for no rent and advertising hahaha. Stink that your neighbour was a freak!!

Congrats
