Monday 26 September 2022 10:02 AM Ex-boyfriend repeatedly put cash in former lover's account with 's**g' and ... trends now

An obsessive ex-boyfriend has been ordered to pay his former lover £100 compensation for causing her 'distress' after he repeatedly paid money into her online bank account with abusive messages as the payment reference. 

Jack Roach, 29, made 41 different payments into 24-year old Rachel Thomas-Tear's Monzo account when she blocked him on social media following the collapse of their three-month romance.

During his bizarre spree, Roach's abusive messages in the payee reference box on transactions included 'unblock me to talk,' 'scruffy little s**g' and 'little tramp, no wonder you have got no one'.

Mother-of-one Miss Thomas-Tear, from Little Sutton in Ellesmere Port, Cheshire, said she no longer goes out in fear of bumping into Roach, can't take her son to the park and does not sleep at night due to the worry.

In a statement Miss Thomas-Tear said: 'While I hoped we could remain friends it was not possible due to his change of emotions. Sometimes he was nice, and sometimes he was not nice.

'I received constant calls and texts. I blocked him hoping that he would not contact me any more but instead he sent money to my Monzo account and would leave messages.

'He would call from numbers showing 'No caller ID' when I had a number of calls from my doctor about hospital appointments. They were always from a private number.

'Before all this I was a happy outgoing person but this has affected me in such a way that I am no longer able to trust people. I do not go out for fear that I might bump into him.'

Saying that she had changed her mobile phone, meaning that she had to inform her doctor and health visitors about her new phone number, the victim added: 'I am constantly on edge that he may turn up at my home as he has done. 

'I am saving up for a camera doorbell. I live in fear daily. I do not sleep very well as I am constantly worrying, especially if I hear a noise at night.

'If I go out I am constantly looking over my shoulder. It has impacted on my son as well. I should be able to take him
