So I called the police.... TWICE.

Nail them to the wall. You pay rent and you should be able to go to bed at a normal time and not be disturbed. I have had this happened and called it in several times until it was handled appropriately. They can be someone elses problem.

I would try talking to them directly or the apt mgrs, I know you dont want to see them in trouble but they are interfering with everyones peace and quiet and quality of life. They need to be respectful. I can see having parties and get togethers but they need to be respectful of their neighbors living close by. I hope this gets better for you and that you can get some sleep finally!

You have every right. They should have some consideration. It is evident that they don't have any. I can't blame you at all. You should not be up all hours of the night because of them. I hope they get the hint and straighten up. I can see some noise before midnight but they have to realize that in an apartment you disturb everyone else. Good luck to you.

whoa whoa whoa!! why in the hell do you feel bad?? do you think they feel bad for disturbing everyone in the bloody building? of course they dont, if they did they'd knock it the hell off after the first warning and they certainly wouldnt pull the same stunt the next night....I think you definately did the right thing adn you shouldnt feel guilty AT ALL! YOU wouldnt be/wont be responsible if they get evicted THEY ARE... pat yourself on the back Ambur25 cause I'll lay bets you arent the first neighbours these ppl have had that have called the cops on them or at least you arent the first neighbours they've disturbed with their inconsiderate crap!

Hi Ambur! Don't feel badly about calling the police on these girls. They are grown women and they should know the concept of being considerate enough of their neighbours (especially in an apartment building) not to be doing such partying. They are adults and must be responsible for the decisions they make. If they do get evicted then it will be a valuable life lesson for them. You do not have to put up with their immature and inconsiderate and self-centred partying until the wee hours. This is unacceptable behaviour. Now, if they were to be considerate about it, tell you ahead of time that they were having friends over and atleast tried to keep the noise down that would be one thing, but it doesn't sound like they attempted to be at all neighbourly. So why should you?

you know what. im a type of guy that gets pay back. so when its about three in the morning go nutz and have like a inside party and get back on there nerves and see if they like it then

You did what needed to be done. You're probably not the only neighbor that was tired of hearing the noise all hours of the night. And don't feel bad if you have to call again and they get evicted. It is their choice to continue to be loud. We all have to deal with the outcome from the choices we make.

You should go upstairs and be like "Do you mind keeping it down, I'm trying to get some sleep. If you don't keep it down I will call the police." If they give you lip then just be like "okay I'm calling the cops."

Why should you feel bad about to someone elses unacceptable behavior? You did nothing wrong. If having the authorities come to their door is not enough for them to get the hint then they will have to suffer the consequences of their actions. If they were smart, they would start partying at a friends house instead of sacrificing their own home. If they do not seem concerned with the outcome then why should you. You are not responsible for the action of others.

well why dont you tell them that the next time it happens you are gonna throw them out in the middle of night..whatever happens...maybe this will quiet them

Everyone has to learn their leasons about respecting others at some point. It obvious these girls didn't learn it when they were six so they have to learn it now. That very well mean being evicted. Don't feel bad at all you had to do what you had to do.

Years ago I lived in an apartment and had some interesting next door neighbors also LOL. The couple next door were always fighting, screaming, hitting, breaking things. After quite a few repeated calls to the police and the woman involved telling them that everything was ok it seemed that nothing would happen to take care of the problem. I complained to the apartment manager about the problem and he said that if the police could not do anything then the apartments couldn't do anything either. I took out my lease on the place and noticed a clause in it that stated that the apartment complex was responsible to maintain peace in the complex. I took the lease to the apartment managers and told them that until the problem was resolved I would no longer be paying rent. The apartment manager didn't like it but was stuck because of the contract, so it was in his best interest to take care of the problem as fast as possible. It still took three months to get the couple out of the complex, but it was worth it in the long run saving over $3000 :-) Seems that even out of a bad situation there can be a silver lining.

I think you are totally being fair. You have given them many chances and time to get it sorted, and they have failed, and you are therefore not to blame. I would not let it worry me. They will get on in life no probs. They just have to learn this lesson.

I had very bad neighbors in the past. the kind of people who stay up all night, making noise and sleep in all day long. I talk to the neighbors first. If they have the I-do-whatever-I-want-at-home, then I call the police as soon as they stay making noise until they end up understanding and try to be a bit more civilized and respectful.

I don't think you were unreasonable. It is very upleasant to have to live with this for a length of time. At least you live in an apartment building so it's unlikely you will be confronted about spoiling their fun. People should learn to respect their neighbours, especially late at night or it the neighbours have samll kids. You should be proud that you stood up for yourselves!

I think you did the right thing. Everyone needs their sleep, and not at 4pm til 8am, tjats only a cat nap. How old are these girls, pretty young I`m sure, so you probably did them a favour by teaching them a little respect now rather than too late .

I would probably feel bad if I had to call the cops on someone but on the other hand, they should respect the fact that other people live there too.

"Noisy Neighbors." are really annoying when you try to sleep.

part of there rental agreement or lease is to respect the neighbors and quiet is after 10pm until 8am, they know this. I am sure. So they are going to get themselves kicked out.

oh i wish i could do the same in our neighborhood...a house just a few blockcs away from us sings with a video so loud til 2 in the morning. mygod...if you do call our community servicemen the people there will think you're a kj.
