You have said you brought this up and they generally are careful but some times forget, they are human, unless you offer to replace the damn thing your probably going to be come out of this as the bell end neighbors that won't stop banging on about nothing.

Unless it's causing Admiral Boom from Mary Poppins level of disruption it jink you need to just chill a bit.

Thanks but she definitely needs reminding as lately it's gotten louder. And yesterday it was totally unacceptable. I've spoken to her about it before and she still hasn't bothered to get it permanently fixed so she needs reminding even if it means me coming across a bit like a baby im afraid.
I know the part in the letter where I wrote about it taken me by surprise and making me jump sounds a bit extreme but I can't help but let her know that it is exactly what it does...:/

No she doesn't need reminding.

You live in a flat. You are always going to hear the neighbours. Opening a wardrobe is not "unacceptable", it's a perfectly normal thing for people to do.

And there is no reason for her to get her wardrobe "fixed", it's not broken.

Sorry but you sound very ignorant quite frankly. If a wardrobe door makes ur floors walls and desk vibrate then that is not normal.
I have never come across a wardrobe that causes a building to shake.

After your performance with your flatmate, I am not being called "ignorant" by you.

You need to move out of the city and go and live by yourself in the middle of nowhere.

Although I bet even then you'd be in here whining about the birdsong being too loud in the morning.

No I don't mind sounds like birds or even cars driving past or the bin collectors.
As they are passive and don't cause a disturbance such as this.
You are acting totally ignorant I'm afraid.

And I'm glad it got it sorted with my flatmate as the room was never advertised for a couple to rent. Her boyfriend can rent in London too if he wants to see her end off.

Well I'm glad she isn't unreasonable and ignorant like you. So that I don't have to get the council involved and make an official noise complaint.
If you were living above me and ignored me then I'd blast loud music at your 12hours a day when I am not home. If simply set my homepod to do it on a playlist.

Wardrobe is broken
Wardrobe door slides along the bare floor
She has the same wardrobe in her other room however with that this does not happen because the wheels are smooth it seems.
So obviously it is broken and it's move like she is dragging a heavy piece of wood along the floor each time because the wheels are broken and she's too much of a cheapskate to get it replaced.
Just like how she caused water damage on my kitchen ceiling because of her leaking washing machine. I had to tell her three times plus my flatmate telling her that she would have to pay for the damage before she changed her washing machine.

I went up and complained about all the noise. She said she would look to change the wardrobe in the future but not right now. In the meantime she will open it very slowly. I also suggested she use a rug over her vinyl floor because it was too loud and to stop dropping things on the floor basically because the noise just pierces through my brain I said.

Ok so its a lot better now but I am now noticing she has a lot of wooden jarring furniture. I shouldn't be able to hear movement of her drawers etc. Its soo annoying because the sound is so jarring and sudden. So now I have to go up and complain again but I'll give it a week or two so that it doesn't seem like i'm constantly knocking on her door.

New build flats are known for having great heat insulation but rubbish sound insulation but your description sounds too extreme.

Sweet jesus how do you function on a daily basis.

You have a point with a leaky washing machine.

With the wardrobe, you complained about it on here well over a year ago.

No mention then that it is "broken".

I'm sorry but the problem is more with you than her. You can complain about some things, but not "loud opening of furniture".

No:1 Final Fantasy Fan wrote:It is loud and causes in vibrations because it is a fixed wardrobe. Therefore the door slides open and shut and has full contact with the floor. How else can I explain it?
