    • After enforcing regulations with the Landgraab Power Company, power on a Sim's lot will no longer be unexpectedly shut off when bills are paid in full.

    Fixed in Patch 1.106.148/1.91

      I am having this issue too. It only seems to affect apartments and it is tied to the prank calls added to the game with Eco, not to NAPs or not paying the bills. You get a call claiming the Landgraab power company is going to shut off your power due to squirrels. If you click the wrong option your power is turned off. It is supposed to last 48 hours, but the power never comes back on. If you exit the game and come back in, the power is restored, but only temporarily. If your Sims leave the lot and come back, the power is gone again.

      I have even tried moving my Sims out, bulldozing the apartment and restoring it with a save from the gallery, but the power is gone when they move back in.

        This just happened to me. My sims are in a house not apartment. 😟 I hope this isn't bugged on my end, I'm stating to like the house they live in.

      This is still happening. I got the squirrel message and now my sims lose power off and on. Especially if one of them leaves the lot. The power seems to come and go at random. I will look for a pattern. 

      Changing out my mailbox seems to be working for the moment. I was also getting last exceptions from MC Command Center each time I loaded the lot. That has stopped since changing out the mailbox.

        It’s still happening. I can’t delete the mailbox on an apartment building even with the move objects cheat. Idk what else to do
