[FIXED] Sims Calling My Sim To Hang Out/Go out At 3am

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? n/a
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except My First Pet
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game through a day and get to know some people. Sleep and maybe around 3am usually for me anyway, someone will call you up to hang out, go out on a date, or a get together meet up like party.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims that my sim knows decently well, just any sims that would usually send over invite interactions through the phone like a date, to hang out, to come over, to go out to get together events, are calling at 3am almost every night without fault. I don't know if this is intentional however it only started happening in my game after the newest patch, but it's really odd. I don't remember them calling in the middle of the night before the patch, but maybe I'm wrong. Also a pattern I've noticed, it usually happens between 3am and 4am.
What do you expect to see? Sims not call me up to go on a date at 3am.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. 06/19

Repaired game, played clean save, no mods or cc tested. Still having this bug after doing this.

    Sims will no longer receive random phone calls from other Sims between the hours of 8pm and 10am, allowing them to enjoy a full – and speedy – night’s sleep.

    Fixed in Patch 1.51.75

    this glitch still happens...made a (vanilla) save after the GF patch and this is definitely in it (it's also been in past saves). I've dubbed it the "booty call" in my game. :D

    I have this happen too but my sims usually awake and talking to the sim calling to ask him on a date. which makes no sense... why not just ask him since your standing in front of him? happens in all my saves no matter the cc/mods/etc. I don't mind it, I find it kind of funny since the sim calling is always at the lot already with my sim or talking to them.

    Hi @Sadisgate333

    could you please create a separate thread for console. Console/PC/Mac are currently not insync so console bugs are traced separately. 

    Thank you
