Grim's Event Banner Still Present after event

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.110.311.1220
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? laundry day, for rent, cats and dogs, blooming rooms, christmas stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Make the banner go away
What happens when the bug occurs? Banner for event that is over is still present
What do you expect to see? The Grim Reaper Event Banner in game
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? Neutral/Not Sure 

I was unable to play any of the reapers rewards event since the end of the first week, dispute doing everything asked by support and following the threads closely. This includes the one saying that it's now closed and although they didnt fix the bigs before the end of the event they will do better in the future. Now the event banner will not go away even tho the event is over. I am somehow STILL stuck in limbo and no one answered my multiple questions about those of us who tried to play along but through no fault of our own missed out on the event and free content. 

I would love to not have the constant reminder stuck on the screen every time i open the game.

    Thank you, Thats super frustrating considering they closed the thread about the bugs with the event because the event was over, but they're keeping it open for people so the bugs are still present. 

    I've spent more time dealing with this than playing since the start of week two of the event, with nothing to show for it. 

  • I have completed up to week 4. Week 5 would only let me complete "An Inspiring Potion" but the game won't let me do anything past that. My sim is already at the highest level in everything they need to be to finish this. I've even made the Ambrosia and had a ghost sim eat it to come back to life. The Reaper's Reward sits in the corner of the screen like it did when we were waiting for the other quests to be unlocked. I've tried repairing the game, I don't have mods installed at all. I've tried literally everything and it's upsetting, I wanted to collect everything from the rewards. I've talked to a friend who also plays Sims and they had the same issues and have done the same things to try to fix it, but nothing. The small Grim just mocks me in the corner... Why EA? Why are you doing this to me?

    @idkimjoe The event is now over.

    The icon will stay till nov 26th so people can still claim their rewards but you can't proceed anymore.
