Hi,We had a similiar problem with tenants above us since the landlord starting letting his flat on a room basis,I took direct action returning the stubs via their letter box after they failed to respond to my requests to respect other residents property,RMG failed to respond,despite the fire hazard caused by trying to flick the stubs into the garden over our terrace and after an incident when our decking was scorched I involved the police and the offending occupants of the apartment were given formal warnings as it was criminal damage and they would charge them if there was any further complaints and apart from 1 accidental reoccurance I have had no further trouble. I guess the threat of a criminal record for such a stupid reason finally hit home!
