Since the last update, I have not been receiving any party invites, despite having many friends that host weekly parties on specific days. I also noticed that I only had one friend attend my party I hosted last week, so my friends were not receiving my invite either. My parties almost always max out on attendees and my friends make up more than half the people there. There has been a very dramatic change in my party activity since the last update, so I know something is broken. Please fix this issue, it really takes a lot of joy out of playing for me if I can’t interact with my friends.

I also want to add that right at the time I noticed this change, I had just purchased A LOT of sims cash from the Labor Day weekend double your sims cash sale. The deal was that if I spent $400 at Olay, I would receive 172k sims cash. I completed this offer twice over the holiday weekend and now have over 300k sims cash because I spent $800 dollars on it. I thought it was a really good deal because that was over $2k worth of sims cash for $800. I read an old thread on Reddit saying that if the server flags my account as having used hacks, it will kick me off the main server and send me to a ghost server. I SERIOUSLY hope this is just a game bug that I am experiencing and not that I was flagged as hacking. I was offered these deals in the game and purchased the sims cash in the sims mobile app. I am very worried that I just waisted all that money and am now being wrongfully punished for it. I attached a screen shot of my first rewarded simscash offer but did not take a picture of the second one and they no longer show up on my account.

  • Me too. I’m missing out on so many fashion gems because of it. Not being able to interact with friends sort of defeats the purpose of playing sims mobile.

    can anybody please help me.. EA team won’t help me with my issue.. for more than a month I haven’t geen receiving any party invites from my friends and also my friends haven’t been receiving any of my party invites.. I have contacted some of my Sims friends IRL and they tell me that they are throwing a party to warn me and I warn them when I give a party but somehow none of my friends (I have 50) receive my party invite and nor do I receive theirs.. I have the latest IOS update, I have deleted and downloaded the app again, I have the newest Sims mobile version. I have been playing Sims mobile for a couple of years and have invested a lot of money in it.. somehow playing without friends isnt as fun.. also if I do throw a party, maybe 1 or 2 players will attend whom are most lonely

    I ended up giving up because EA was worthless with “helping” me. I deleted all my amazing friends that I was no longer able to interact with and added new friends because for some reason I am able to have parties with new people. I tried deleting and re-adding a friend I have outside communication with and had no luck.

    Thats horrible to hear! Now im scared that I have also been sent to some ghost server.. when I do search for new parties to attend, its always the exact same sort of houses its almost scary! I used to have so much fun playing, my parties were always full and it was exclusive friends only.. I just deleted all my friends like you did cause I have deleted and added them back but that did not help.. now I hope to make new friends, I will certainly miss my old friends whom I have been playing with for a few years.. I will try to host a party again tomorrow, if you would like to attend my friend code is 6L493VH. It will probably be empty but you can be my first friend again! 

  • Oh yes! I have the same problem nearly since two month. I‘m also playing on iPhone.

    I contacted EA help a few times. I wrote on twitter to a Sim Guru. No one can help me 😢
