How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I don't know how to answer this question. Do you need my player number to troubleshoot? My player ID is [Player-ID removed by SalixCat]. I would like to click on the ad, have it play, and give the rewards after watching the ad. If you can access my game and see an opportunity to watch a mailbox ad, click to watch it, then troubleshoot the data and fix the bug so you can watch the ad and reap the reward 🙂
What do you expect to see? When the blue circle with the arrow appears on a mailbox, I would like to click on the ad, have it play, and give the rewards after watching the ad.

Country United States
When the option is available to watch an ad on a mailbox at home or in town, I click to watch the ad but the ad never plays and I can't get the rewards. I do have another sim family that I have been playing with on my iPhone but wanted a fresh start after learning so much from the other users on this site.
Also I spent money on the game I am playing on my android tablet, which is the one I am having issues with the mailbox, which makes it all the more frustrating! I should add Each has it's own account as they are on different emails and different platforms so there should be no trouble with the accounts getting mixed up. Please find a fix, Thanks for help!!
oh, if you can provide assistance with how I can video when this error happens I will gladly send them your way. Thanks again.

EA Staff (Retired)Hi @Sampson0316 ! Thanks for your report, could you tell me what Android version do you use? Thanks!
@EA_DragonsEye I am using a Galaxy Tab A7 Android version 10. My Player ID is [Admin - removed User ID. The User ID is private information. Please don't share it on Answers HQ as these boards are publicly visible]. Please help!!!
@EA_DragonsEyehave DM’d you a link to YouTube showing a freezing ad. I will be taking the link down in 24 hours to protect my privacy. Please DM me following that if you still could use it. Thanks
Edit: I have taken the video down, @EA_DragonsEye. It had a lot of sensitive content in it because of loading screens. If it would be helpful please let me know and I’d be happy to relink it. Thanks!
I have freezing ad video, it was linked from YouTube to Twitter to a DM. I really don’t know what I’m doing, that was the best I could do. I have now taken down both links. It was too dangerous. Anytime anybody wants it, it’s there. Guaranteed.
Also. Can’t find the developers post requesting further action from me on ads functionality data. I’ll search it. Maybe I’m just looking in the wrong place.
Edit: Feb 27/21 I was. There are now two threads active on freezing or non playing ads. I didn’t realize that. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Open-Mailbox-ad-icon-disappears-Ads-Not-Working/td-p/9976912/page/3
