Mailbox flag is up, but No interactions possible is showing.

Hi,

Maybe someone else has experienced this and knows how to solve it.

On my sims mailbox, the red flag is up (I assume this indicates that there is mail in the box, probably bills) so I keep trying to click on the mailbox, however it keeps showing "No Interactions Possible", indicating obviously that I can't interact with the mailbox.

I'd really rather not let the repo person come and steal some stuff from my sim, so maybe someone can tell me what's going on with this. The day is Monday about 9:40AM if that makes any difference.

I attempted to delete the mailbox figuring I'd add a new one to the lot, but apparently the game won't allow me to do that, and there isn't any mailbox in the buy menu that I could find anyway.

Anybody got a clue why the mailbox flag would be up indicating there is mail waiting for me to collect but the mailbox won't allow me to collect it?

I would wait on the late notice payment option to popup when the sim fails to pay his bills but it never pops up in my game for some reason. Anyway... Any clues how to interact with a mailbox that has a flag up but won't let the sim gather the mail?

Thanks,

  • If that is so, then he's been missing his mail for quite a while now. I know in real life the flag goes up when you have mail to go out (postman to pick it up), but I could have sworn it was the way they indicated that there is mail in the game.

    It was just down on Sunday (game day) and I tried clicking on it, but also got the no interactions possible tooltip.

    Hmmm, somethings whacked I think.
  • No kleptos, but Im not sure what you mean by good trait sim.

    He's got some gems but not sent any out to be cut in ages.

    I guess I'll just have to wait and see what happens with this.
