Stupid game bug caused 500+simcash lost!
During last week’s Mayor’s Contest(end at 2026.01.07), my game experienced severe lag and performance issues. As a result, several assignments that were already completed but not yet collected disappeared after restarting the game. This caused me to lose approximately 11,000 Contest Crystals. Due to this issue, my final ranking dropped from 3rd place to 4th place, which resulted in missing the following rewards: 500 SimCash 50 Golden Keys 5 Gold Speed-Up Tokens This was not caused by player error, but by game performance problems. I kindly ask you to review the logs and provide appropriate compensation for the loss and the ranking impact. simcity player ID: 1077066757 League: Metropolis Leaguemyerson3536 minutes agoNewcomer1View0likes0CommentsIn-game customer service cannot be opened after long loading

I’ve read the forums and confirmed my services like Power and Water are configured correctly, connected and have more than enough capacity. Yet many of my buildings are marked as not having power and water, and this has a highly negative impact on game-play. I’ve wasted simoleans and neo-simoleans on upgrades to try and resolve this, how will you refund me given these non-stop offers you post for me to spend actual money on them? Based on the forums this is a game-wide impact and not just a single-under or small-user error. Please let us know EA timing to resolve this defect and provide refunds for our game spend.8b1e3b29c18f79cf1 hour agoSeasoned Newcomer302Views1like4CommentsMohegan PA Casino Ad
Has anyone else got the Mohegan PA Casino ad while playing the game? IT IS OVER 2 MINUTES LONG! WTF were they thinking with allowing a 2+ minute ad? Ads should be UNDER 30 seconds or whatever it is so that the game doesn't need to reload when you exit the ad.9a4d2e5957ba81861 hour agoRising Rookie18Views0likes1Comment- 74naycsb1 hour agoRising Newcomer13Views0likes1Comment

So, like many others, my city’s services capacities greatly outnumber the demande but still, the red symbols appear as though the supply for these services is lacking. However, after even trying to demolish all roads and rebuilding them, now, it seems as though all my game is stalled! I cant do anything to upgrade my residential units, my population does not vary at all and stays at the exact same number. The only thing I can see to do and produce items in my factories and sell them through the shipyard, etc. Why is my game stalled like this? I completed the update from 2 days ago but nothing changed. Please advise when this will be fixed! Many thanks42Views0likes0CommentsSecret change to buying war cards
EA have made a change to buying war cards without any announcement, probably along side the change to being able to buy war items with simcash. Common cards used to start at 15, go up in increments of 1 to 20 simcash, then go up in increments of 2 to 30 simcash and then increments of 3 and so on. Buying 20 common cards used to cost around 650 simcash, now it’s around 1200 simcash. Thoughts?120Views0likes1Comment- y5r4ric7tkqo1 day agoSeasoned Newcomer40Views0likes1Comment
[2026] "Add Me" Thread - Find New Friends/Neighbors in SCBI
Hey Mayors! Welcome to the SCBI "Add Me" thread (2026 edition). We've opened a fresh space to add your friend request posts and new neighbors to the game. A new thread should make it easier to find current active Mayors looking to connect with others. We'll do our best to set up a new thread each year for the same reasons. Please read the 'Ground Rules' and 'What to include in "Add Me" requests' before posting! You can find the previous Friend requests thread here If you need help sending requests to people who've posted, see this guide Ground rules: No Personal Identifiable information: The EA Forums is a public forum visible to all. Please protect your information and help keep others safe by not sharing the following details: Email address, Player ID, Phone number, Home address, Real life name, Payment information, etc.. Keep "Add Me" requests to this thread: Hitting other areas of the forum with "Add Me" requests is a no-go. It can become a lot and push down other threads where Mayors need help with an issue. That's why we've created a dedicated space for finding friends and adding neighbors in-game and will merge any Add Me requests on the board into this space to help keep them together and easier to find. Let's use this space. 🙌 Be considerate: We're happy if you'd like to post your "Add Me" a few times but keep in mind flooding the thread and excessive thread bumping is not okay. It's important to be considerate of other Mayors so please keep these in mind: Allow a minimum of 30 posts + 24 hours to pass before you share another "Add Me" post from the same account. If 24 hours have passed since your last post but there haven't been 30 other "Add Me" requests shared yet, please don't bump the thread. Instead... ...if you have new information to add, please edit your last post and include the new details. What to include in "Add Me" requests To add a friend's neighborhood, Mayors will need to enter their Friend code. That's pretty much it, simple! Saying that, feel free to share a bit about your SimCity. Not sure how to find your Friend Code or invite others? Use >> this guide << for more information. So what are you waiting for? Hit up this thread with your Friend codes and Add Me Requests! 🙌 Have fun!73Views1like3CommentsLegendary Holiday Tree - Effect not working
Hey Mayors! Is anybody else having an issue where the legendary holiday tree is no longer covering your city in snow? The toggle switch is on, I’ve tried it multiple times. All of a sudden all my snow disappeared and will not come back as of yesterday.Solved129Views2likes13CommentsBuildit App won't open on iPad (latest model)
My Simcity Build it App suddenly does not want to open. When I hit it goes to the White screen with ea symbol then to city with bar showing progress of load. Them it just shuts down. I've tried all the hints re what to do. I am very reluctant to uninstall and then reinstall without a guarantee I would go back to the same city. I've spent too much time (and monet!) getting to where it was. How do I know if I was playing through game centre. Sim City shows up in game centre when i open it. Is that enough to be sure it can be restored? It's pretty frustrating as it stopped working all of a sudden. ThanksAnonymous1 day ago10KViews0likes7CommentsBridge disconnected again?
I was trying to dispatch a train on the station in the mainland of Green Valley and then I received a notice that that train station is not connected to another station (the next station is on the island). When I investigated, I saw that the bridge is disconnected. I tried connecting it again and it wouldn't connect. Help!DJGeoRob2 days agoSeasoned Scout23Views0likes0Comments
