Re: Paying your bills in Sims 4

@83dnyc Do you need help ?

@rumbutter Yeah, seems like they had the bug

Quoting the solution and accepting.

Oh, just realized it had to be the first person created in household or at least this is what it turned out to be.  I had moved Sims around from different households so I guess that must be the reason the Sim I was trying to get to pay the bills didn't work.  It worked perfectly when I chose another member of the household.

    what's worse is when my sim went to the library to write a book instead, the power has been shut off there as well so she couldn't use the computer

    Moving someone in should give them the option to pay it on the computer

    did you use that sims phone to see if the option pay bills shows up there ?

    see if crins tip here can help Maybe if you travel a few times they get unocked. It seems they get locked when you travel to another lot but should get unlocked on your home lot.

    there is no option to pay bills on the phone and the computer is unusable because there is no power.  there is no power no matter where the sim goes!  I've moved them out and I've had her travel but the bills remain in inventory and the action to pay bills cancel itself.  I will try to make her go to other lots and come back or perhaps separating her from the family.

    I tried computer, mailbox and phone. Nothing showing "pay bill"
  • There's a cheat code for it!!!  ctrl+shift+c and type in  households.autopay_bills

    that let's you off the hook until you have to retype it in when the cheats reset again... which they do everytime your location loads
