The Issue

Please support me! I have been bullied by the residents for more than 2 years. Isolated, bullied, and harassed, and it's in Brighton and Hove!

I am sharing my experience to call attention to ongoing harassment, discrimination, victimisation, and deliberate property damage I have faced as a resident of The Pinnacle in Hove. Despite raising concerns, I have been excluded and ignored, while the people responsible have not been held accountable.

These issues are not just private disputes — they affect my safety, wellbeing, and rights as a resident. They also highlight the responsibility of the building’s management and freeholder to ensure all residents are treated fairly, safely, and with respect.

 
1. Verbal Abuse and Harassment by Residents
Resident A: Shouted racial slurs and offensive remarks at me. This constitutes clear racial harassment and created a hostile environment.
Resident B: Repeatedly shouted personal insults at me outside my front door, with no apology despite my attempts to address it.
Resident C: Shouted at me outside the building, and when I tried to discuss it, the situation escalated with unrelated complaints. My reports were dismissed, and I was unfairly accused of wrongdoing for speaking up.
Resident D: Repeatedly provoked me with remarks intended to anger or humiliate, criticized my efforts to raise awareness, and encouraged others to exclude or mock me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. Removal from the WhatsApp Group

After reporting harassment, I was removed from the residents' WhatsApp group — the main platform for building updates, meetings, and community communication. This exclusion punished me for speaking up, isolated me from essential information, and constitutes victimisation.

When I attempted to discuss this exclusion with the administrators to understand their reasons, they refused to engage in dialogue or provide any explanation. This lack of accountability demonstrates their unwillingness to resolve issues fairly.

Evidence:
- Screenshots showing my removal immediately after reporting discrimination
- WhatsApp group rules explicitly stating the purpose is "to discuss matters relating to the building" — confirming it is an official communication channel, not merely a private social group
- False reasons given for my removal
- Other residents mocking my reports of racism with laughing emojis
- Timeline proving removal was retaliatory, not rule-based

 

This is the evidence that I was removed from the group, because I raised a concern about racial abuse.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the evidence that the admin refused to talk because he was eating lunch.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3. Refusal of Mediation

Police recommended free mediation to resolve these conflicts, but all WhatsApp administrators refused to participate or engage. Their refusal shows a clear failure to resolve disputes in a fair and lawful manner.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

4. WhatsApp Group as a Public Residents’ Forum
The WhatsApp group is regularly used for:

Maintenance and building repairs
Freehold and property management issues
Invitations to residents’ meetings
Voting on community decisions
As such, the group is a public forum for residents. Excluding someone from it denies them essential participation in the community.

 5. Exclusion from Residents’ Meetings
I have been excluded from residents’ meetings despite previously being invited. I believe this is related to my racial background. All residents deserve equal access to participate in community decisions.

 
6. Deliberate Damage to Vehicle

My vehicle was deliberately damaged multiple times while parked at The Pinnacle. Independent confirmation established that the damage was intentional and caused by a third party. These incidents appear to be retaliation linked to the ongoing harassment.

Damage Summary:
- November 2024 (First Incident): Two tyres punctured. Kwik-Fit repair
- November 2024 (Second Incident): All four tyres punctured. Kwik-Fit repair
- Additional Damage: Exhaust system damaged (unable to repair economically)


- All incidents occurred at The Pinnacle parking area
- Only accessible regularly by residents
- Pattern of escalating damage (2 tyres → 4 tyres → exhaust) within weeks
- Same vehicle targeted repeatedly
- You possess CCTV evidence but have refused to provide it

 
What I Am Asking For


I am calling for:

 

1. A formal mediation session with the WhatsApp administrators and a neutral third party.
2. Reinstatement to the WhatsApp group, or an equivalent communication channel, without conditions.
3. A formal acknowledgment of past misconduct and a commitment to uphold the Equality Act 2010.
4. Compensation for the deliberate damage to my vehicle and associated losses.
5. Full inclusion in all future residents' meetings and community discussions without discrimination.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Petition Appeal
No one should have to face harassment, discrimination, or exclusion in their own home. By signing this petition, you are helping demand:

 

Justice and accountability for harassment, discrimination, and victimisation.
Protection of residents’ rights to participate in community life without fear of retaliation.
Compensation for deliberate property damage and recognition of wrongdoing.
Inclusion and equality in all residents’ meetings and communications.
Please sign and share this petition to help create a safe, fair, and respectful community for all residents.

Letter Before Action Served. The Clock Is Now Running


11 April 2026

Today, I formally served a Letter Before Action on The Pinnacle Freehold Ltd, Harper Stone Properties Ltd, and four individual defendants — the admins of the WatsApp Group.

The letter sets out, in full, everything that has been done to me since May 2024. The racial slurs. The 23-minute removal. The coordinated balcony surveillance. The deliberate damage to my vehicle. The theft of court correspondence that resulted in a County Court Judgment being registered against me without my knowledge. The refusal — repeated, documented, and in writing — to investigate any of it.

The total sum claimed is £19,826.59.

They have 14 days to respond — by 25 April 2026.

I want to say something directly to anyone reading this.

I gave them chances. Many of them. I wrote to residents. I offered, in writing, to move my car the moment anyone agreed to speak with me and treat me with basic respect. I attended a coffee meeting. I responded to every approach in good faith. One resident, when he finally apologised to my face, told me this situation should not have become such a big deal.

He is right. It should not have. But it became this big because every single opportunity to resolve it was refused. Not by me.

I have been told, more than once, that I am imagining all of this. I was told this by the same person who apologised to me in the same breath. That is what gaslighting looks like. That is what I have been dealing with.

The letter before action is now on record. The defendants have been named. The evidence has been documented. The losses have been calculated. The law is clear.

If no satisfactory response is received by 25 April 2026, I will issue proceedings in the County Court without further notice.

I will not be forced to stay silent.

訴訟前通知書を送付しました。時計が動き始めました。

2026年4月11日

本日、The Pinnacle Freehold Ltd、Harper Stone Properties Ltd、および個人被告4名—Watsappのアドミンに対し、正式に訴訟前通知書(Letter Before Action)を送付しました。

この書面には、2024年5月以降に私が受けてきたことの全てが記されています。差別的侮辱語。23分後の除名。組織的なバルコニー監視。車両への故意の損傷。郵便盗難によって私の知らないままCCJが登録されたこと。そしてその全てについて、繰り返し、書面で、調査を拒否されてきたこと。

請求総額は£19,826.59です。

回答期限は2026年4月25日——14日間です。

これを読んでいる方に、直接お伝えしたいことがあります。

私は何度もチャンスを与えました。住民全員に手紙を書きました。話し合いに応じて基本的な敬意をもって接してくれれば、すぐに車を移動すると書面で申し出ました。コーヒーミーティングにも参加しました。全ての働きかけに誠意をもって応じました。ある住民は、ようやく私に直接謝罪したとき、こんなに大事になるべきではなかったと言いました。

その通りです。こんなに大事になるべきではありませんでした。でもこれほど大きくなったのは、解決の機会が一度残らず断られたからです。私によってではなく。

私はこれは全て頭の中で起きていることではないかと、一度ならず言われました。私に謝罪した同じ人物から、同じ会話の中で。これがガスライティングというものです。これが私が向き合ってきたものです。

訴訟前通知書は記録に残りました。被告は名指しされました。証拠は記録されました。損害は算定されました。法律は明確です。

2026年4月25日までに満足のいく回答がなければ、予告なく地方裁判所に提訴します。

私は強制的に沈黙させられることはありません。
