Re: Bugs - How to report them

I am trying to submit a visual bug I found in Sims Mobile but your online forum is not letting me submit the post! I press submit and nothing happens. Is there a way I can give the bug info another way? I have all of the data and a screenshot. 

Cheers!

    Hi @wildhorsey,

    Sorry to read you are having issues with the form. Please, keep in mind the last box needs to be filled as well for the Submit button to appear:

    If that's not the issue, could you please give us more details of what's the problem?

    Thanks!

    -Mai

  • Hi Mai!

    So the Submit button does show up, but for some reason when I click it, nothing happens. There is content in post box as well. I have to refresh the page for any button to work again - Is it possible this is an issue with chrome?

    The same thing is happening to me. I filled out everything but when i pressed submit it didn’t take me any where. Everything is filled out correctly but i still can’t get the information to post.

    Hi @cuteypielin @wildhorsey,

    Thanks for the details!

    @cuteypielin, are you using Google Chrome as well?

    Could you both please try to use another browser to fill the form? Also, when you press Submit, could you scroll up to check if there's any small red text in the page explaining any errors?

    Thank you!

    I was actually using safari on my phone to try to complete the form. I did complete all of it and there wasn’t any red marks or any missing information when i pressed submit

    That's really strange, thanks @cuteypielin. I just tried with Safari through my iPhone and iPad and both showed me a Submit button, so I'm not sure why this could be happening.

    Could it be it was loading slower than usual? Could you please try again and wait some more seconds than usual, just to make sure it's not an issue related to that?

    Are you able to open threads in other boards, like Technical issues?: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/bd-p/the-sims-mobile-technical-issues-en

    Hi @cuteypielin,

    Sorry for the wait! If you have a video of a bug with Answers HQ, that's awesome! Please, send me a PM or post it here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Answers-HQ/bd-p/AnswerHQHelp

    (You can send me a PM from my profile page: https://answers.ea.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/18747491 )

    While we find out which is the problem, you can open threads in Technical discussion forum, yes. Please, try to give us the same information you would if you were filling the form, so I can fill it for you.

    Thanks!

    There was a thread earlier that I can't find now where the sims couldn't leave the house which started for most players a few hours after updating. Some people started they couldn't get in at all anymore which is happening to me now too. It pulls up the sims logo page and makes the sound it makes when it finally loads but it just stays on the sims logo page. Prior to it not working at all it would crash everytime I tried to leave home

    I tried to post this myself but idk what happened but it didn't work so any help reporting this or pointing me in the right direction would be great

    Thanks
  • I'm having a bug with the game AND this forum!

    I am unable to submit a bug report as nothing happens when I click submit!

    I'm doing the honeymoon suite quest, step 14, and been waiting two hours with no option to continue or click to start this step.

    My screen won’t leave the new surprising choice..uninstalled n reinstalled many times even leaning catche...all these bugs make the game unplayable.  Guess I’ll hit up Apple for my money refund now that I can’t play the game.

    @Arylon82 Have you tried contacting Ea support directly?  They should be able to fix that for you.  Fingers crossed 🤞 

  • Yea I get a generic email to go to forum for help lol.  I fixed mine tho without EA help...do wish they take this dumb feature out..

    Ahhh the generic reply email... always so helpful! Lol. Glad you got it fixed on you’re own though.  Would you mind posting here what you did in case anyone else has the same problem?

    @Dolphin720  Been there!  Usually all you have to do is check that your form has all the boxes filled out, including the subject line and both boxes down the bottom, otherwise the submit button wont work.  Did you manage to submit it in the end?

    Yes, every box was filled out every time. Eventually, after probably about a dozen attempts, it finally submitted.
