Burglar Alarm on Wood Vale

[prdarling]

Is anyone else being driven mad by this??? It has been going off about 3 times a day for the last week, including 6am Christmas morning and the last few mornings plus a nice midnight toll to end the day, just in case the tinnitus wasn't quite taking hold.

I have knocked on the door but quite literally the lights are on but no-one is home.

I realise it's not the most grave of issues but it's really bringing about the demise of my mental heatlth

Can anything be done or is it just ludicrous to expect A solution?

If the disturbance is still happening, and the address in Wood Vale is in Southwark, you can phone Southwark Council's noise team.on.0207525 5777 & they should investigate. They are available on Saturdays. If the address is in Lewisham, I don't know whether they offer a similar service, but you could check their website. I believe the council.has legal.power to take action in cases such as you describe.

our neighbour's alarm used to go off for hours on end. eventually the council came and disabled it and stuck a notice through their door. it has not happened since.

An alarm should not ring for longer than 20 minutes. The Southwark noise team is the best idea..

Crossbow?

Have you tried a neighbour? We had the same thing and thankfully the neighbours had a set of keys and sorted it fairly easily after phoning the owners. You have my sympathy.

Thankfully the neighbours who have a key managed to track down the owners to get the alarm code so have been able to switch it off. Still reeling from days of being woken at 2am and again at 6am while on my holiday but still thankful the damn thing has stopped
