I am having exactly the same problem.
When I go to travel (mainly using the phone), I can only select the people in my household or people I know who happen to be on the street walking past. For example, if Bella Goth was walking on the street in the neighbourhood my sim is currently in, I could choose her, but if she was in a building, walking on the street in another neighbourhood, or at home I couldn't select her.
I can't select anyone from any other household. This is happening with all sims at all times of the day i.e. the fact the sim is at work has no baring on it. My sim can travel alone and when I get there, I can invite them to hang out at the current lot but I can't travel with them.
I have no mods or CC and never have used them either. I have also tried a full game repair to no avail.

If memory serves, 'M' did work, but like before the update it automatically brings everyone from the household with you.
Using the phone, you can invite people from your household with you and anyone you know that's on the street nearby, but no one else. This means my teen sim, for example, couldn't travel with a group of friends who all live in other houses.

I can duplicate the issue with the phone. Have just tested M before cause that's how I usually do it.
I also tried Invite to hangout at current lot when you're already there and that seems to work fine as well.- 3 years ago
I'm a little confused by what you're saying Crin, especially with this: 'I can duplicate the issue with the phone. Have just tested M before cause that's how I usually do it.'
The issue is with the phone not being able to select people to travel with unless they are part of the household or in the immediate area. Considering this is one of the main and, sometimes, only way to travel with a group of people, it's a fairly big problem. My phone (no matter what household I'm in) looks like the picture on Page 1 of this thread as sent by another user.
I was looking for either a fix or to report a bug so a fix can be sent out (ideally before the EP release on Thursday).Information seems to be very limited on this and many people who have reported it in other places seem to have been ignored or almost been made to sound like they are making it up/doing something wrong and I'm not really sure what to do.
