    I'm having this same issue. I can see the quests but I am unable to complete them. They're completely bugged.

    @c3b77506d96770b7 My event broke now on week 5. This happens: I go in to my save game and saves it as a new game, I play short and realized I want to buy packs on the sale, so stop playing the game while have completed some of the event parts in one of the challenges, there was a letter I guess too that I had not yet read too, it looked like it was delivered and now it wanted me to read it, some items was collected too before leaving game I think. However when I came back to my game after purchase the sale items, and played a while, I realized my letter was not in the box. But another letter, a letter from a fan because my sim is a celebrity. Tried to end game without saving to redo it, and found I had more rewards to collect outside of the game, so I did. Reloaded the game and found my game did not even enter one of the 2 events anymore (the one with the letter). I ended game again and repaired it. But it didn't really help, I got the event back but letter was still nowhere. So found in a forum I could remove my file accountDataDB from documents, so I did and when coming back it said one of the events was complete (the one with one ingredient missing) however I know none of them was complete. Also the one event with the letter was in game and reset, however it directly tells me I get a letter and changes goal to read it - but the letter is never there. Only that fan letter. So right now my event is stuck and I will probably not be able to get my rewards to the end. Feels bad, and like I was punished for buying new packs. I hope EA reads this and helps us get our events working.

    I currently play on Xbox series S and I cannot complete week 5 and 6 of the reapers rewards. During week 5, it was working fine until I had to get the ambrosia newsletter from the mailbox. The plumbobs in the corner disappeared and I thought that because the sim I was using had maxed out there skills that somehow I completed it because it let me claim the rewards but didn’t have the check mark on week 5 indicating that I completed it. Now I’m on week 6. I’m having the same issues with the plumbobs not showing up, but it’s different than week 5. It’s not allowing me to claim anything, which is fine. But I really wanted to complete the reapers. I like the weekly quest based rewards and the items it comes with. I saw people saying that they were able to do a temp fix for pc but there is no resolution for console players. Please help the console players!! I love livestreaming my sims gameplay and the fact that i unfortunately can’t stream the rewards quests rn has been a bummer..

    I get the event and the plum bobs haven’t had any quests. I don’t use mods and my last update was on October 31

    i’m not doing anything any different than I was when it started and I had a fully functioning event

    I'm having the same problem with week 6. I have the icon in the top left corner, but no tasks to complete. I've removed my mods and tray files and the recommended file, cleaned out my cache and other docs, repaired the game, opened the game on a fresh Sims 4 file, restarted many times. Nothing changed.
