Definitely listen to @arthur where she says -

It is always best to make any complaint ... to their chief exec...

Knee jerk reaction to the 'creep out' factor of your initial post was CALL THE COPS but the above advice is a better first step. If you are further fobbed off though, make it plain that you'll take it further.

It needs doing - he's obviously reached a state of awareness to abuse the power with which he's been given, definitely best to nip it in the bud.

Totally agree with advice from @arthur and @ withnail. This should not have been swept under the carpet by SARH. They have a duty to their tenants and are failing you badly. It is incredulous and hard to believe that creep thinks hecould get away with such behaviour. Good luck today.

Received another apology from sarh this morning and a voicemail. Apologising , basically saying my complaint has been sent to wrong place and they are now investigating "creeps" conduct. They said to expect a call from the people investigating it soon. They said they understand the seriousness of my complaint

Well done for insisting they take action - don't let the matter drop until you have a satifactory outcome - ie he's sacked

Did you report it to the police too?

 

[Alee]

Yes I've reported it to police, just so it's there on paper. I don't want them to take any action unless he bothers me again.
At least if it happens to someone else then there's a bit more to back up their story.
Hopefully sarh will sort it out so it doesn't happen to anyone in the future. Even if they just stop him visiting people I'll be a lot happier.
Still waiting for that phone call that was promised to me though... we'll see.
The creep is due to complete surveys at my neighbours very soon. I'm dreading bumping into him

So relieved you've done this, reporting it to the police should give you some reassurance, if he bothers you again about anything you must let them know & they can start action under the harassment act or at the very least warn him that they will.

 

[sarsaparilla]

It always completely baffles me how men like that can't see that that kind of creepy 'I'm-so-inadequate' approach could not possibly impress any normal woman and could only generate complete revulsion. He should be sacked and I sincerely hope he is and not just given a slap on the wrist. As for visiting your neighbour soon, why is he being allowed to do that? Why hasn't he been suspended at least?! You shouldn't be put in the position of having to worry about bumping into him. SARH are failing you badly. I would be asking for a month's free rent or at least a couple of weeks to compensate for all the stress and time and money spent on calls. Good luck@ Alee.

 

[sarsaparilla]

Also, I am sure the newspapers would be interested. You probably would not wish to do that, and neither would i, but SARH don't have to know that ... they won't want that kind of exposure.

 

[Really?]

This thread has taken a nasty turn - we have gone from a disillusioned saddo trying to use his position to gain a date (wrong I know and he deserves all that is coming to him) to blackmailing his employer with threats of publicity.

Dont you think the employer should be made aware of the employees actions & abuse of position? I would want to know if I was employing him....

[Alee]

Just to clear things up .. I'm not blackmailing anyone with threats of publicity.
I don't blame sarh for their employees conduct ,they weren't to know , but I do think they should act on it now that they do

 

[Really?]

of course they should know, and of course they should act on it but demanding free weeks rent and suggesting "exposure" in the press is not the way forward IMHO (any more than my preference for a few stout men and a set of bolt cutters could be classed as "advice")

Indeed I find your bolt cutter idea much better...

And not in any way threatening...

[Gramaisc]

Most, if not all, boltcutters are irony, and a little bit carbony, too.
