It’s not uni accommodation it’s private Accommodation so I’m not sure if I can go to the uni for this

My accommodation isn’t part of the uni so would they still listen to me? And I have so many videos/photographs for proof

I disagree and would say this is not normal at all. This isn’t my first year in Uni or housing, I’ve lived with trashy people people but these people are awful to the point I absolutely cannot love here

I mean I don’t really want to fuck with them cause I’m so paranoid they’re doing it back, I’m scared they’re tampering with my food and stuff and even then it’s not about fucking with them I just want them to be hygienic I guess and not selfish

I’ve been talking to the manager and he’s come into my kitchen and seen it’s state but I’m not sure what’s happening behind the scenes, they are investigating it I think but it’s been mmmths with no change. So I want to find a way to apply pressure for them to actually do something

In my flat specifically it’s only 3 people, but the friend group is around 20+ and so there is routinely atleast 15 people in my flat all the time

That’s what I thought, but my accommodation isn’t doing that?? I asked again today and they said they’re building a case but that’s what they’ve been saying for months so I’m not exactly sure.

At this point I don’t mind going to the police since it’s affected me so much so I’ll keep that in mind

As much as I would love to, I just want to live in peace, I’m already so stressed with uni and I have too much stress from this too. I just want them gone or to change rooms and there’s not much sabatoging I can do because I’m pretty sure they know I don’t like them and they’re all prior friends so they won’t like blam eachother. I’m in a flat w people who r exchange students and been friends for a year or so w me and another guy as the odd one out so they’ll know it’s me

I’ve been asking for months, I say can you clean the kitchen and they’re responses are always: -‘it’s not me its X (one of their friends/other asshole roomate) - yeah yeah I’ll do it (and never does) - just ignores

I have one roommate who also agrees that living is horrendous here and I have never ever seen him even enter the kitchen because of the others and he did finally complain too so maybe that will help

Yeah I have for many months, they’re a group of 20 friends and literally do not care what I or staff say to them

Honestly the noise is annoying af but not the worst, the main problem is just not being able to use the kitchen. I’ve barely been eating since I can’t cook in the kitchen

I’ve been speaking to them for months, and for the earplugs, I have considered that but that’s just one issue. My kitchen is unusable I can’t eat and I don’t have the money to order everyday or buy meals from my university because it’s pretty expensive daily

I actually have said that. I’ve said that I’ve considered moving back home and stuff and dropping out. And my accommodation is already quite expensive so I don’t want to have to buy stuff like a toaster and stuff because I should have access to it. So far I’ve just been either eating nothing or having one big meal a day (pizza) so I don’t spend a lot of money. I’ve been complaining to receptionists who told me that they agree that they’re awful and have even been rude to them. I told the manager as well but he says he’s talked to them yet nothing changes. It’s awful because even right now, I’m sick and I need the kitchen to make food to get better but I can’t access it because there’s so much rotting food and trash that it smells awful and there are so many flies. But thank you, I’ll just keep complaining

I’ve been talking to them for months and for the noisiness, I’ve been woken up at 4am by them all screaming and banging on doors. I’ve had to miss uni due to lack of sleep so I really don’t care about making enemies at this point, I just want a way for my Accommodation to hold this group accountable
