A very serious matter - filing a harassment complaint against estate agent

OP - if you are in the midst of a relationship breakdown then why not simply leave this one for your OH to deal with: she is presumably an adult?
You haven't said whether (a) the texts/calls upset her and (b) whether she has shown you the content or is playing with emotions.
In your situation, I would probably ask the managing partner to get another member of staff to deal with the sale or move EAs altogether. You clearly need to be able to feel that that any EA working on your behalf is actually working in your interests and one who is perhaps actively pursuing a personal interest in your OH has his mind elsewhere.0 -
Is your wife replying to the texts?Vuja De - the feeling you'll be here later0

Is the wife a totally innocent party in all this?0
-
Hmmm the OP's being very selective with the details on this one.....
So, OP....
1) are you and your wife seperated?
2) has she been responding to the texts?
3) what is the content of the texts?
4) are these messages distressing your wife? if so, has she (or you) asked him to stop?0 -
Another thread seems to say that OP is trying to get his wife taken off the mortgage. I think this all goes rather deeper than an overkeen EA.0

It sounds like the wife isn't very bothered about it all...0

Maybe best to let the OP deal with this one. He isn't saying alot and without all the info, I don't think it's too fair that we should.0

I'd agree that the OP appears to be being selective in his reponses. However, your post edit merely lists out questions that have already been asked in several of the other posts............and ignored by the OP;)0 -
If I were the OP, and assuming they are in the process of splitting up, I would consider simply refusing to sell with the current agent if here were chatting up my soon-to-be-ex. That would stop him benefitting from your misfortune, although it wouldn't get your house sold.
However, realistically-speaking, you can't stop them talking to each other. You control your house, not your ex. It's tough but better you come to terms with it.0
