I am not sure which patch has broken this in my game because I wasn't playing with that family for a while. Now (after several in-game minutes) my sim got a bill and it is huge! He has about 22000 and the bill is 48000! He lives in a tiny-house, thus his bills are around 200. The billing info says 48000 is for unpaid bills but this shouldn't even be possible as I haven't been playing with him for months!

@rostsit did you travel to a community lot when the bills came in ?

[rostsit]

@crinrictYes, he got bills while on another lot, though it wasn't community lot but just other family lot.

@rostsit can you check if they go back to normal if you are on your home lot ? The issue with bills being off when you're not on your lot has a thread already. I merge if you can confirm that the bills are normal again on the next week

@rostsit Where is the lot? What lot and what town?

[rostsit]

@crinrictNot sure what do you mean. Of course I went back immediately and checked at the post box what bill I have to pay. The amount is the same. Do you want me to wait another in-game week for another bill? I can try it, but this means repo-man will come to take my stuff

Can you just give me a link to that thread? I will read through it to make sure if this is the same issue.

Ah...

It's a known bug. Go to this bug report and click on "Me Too".

If you're on PC, that thread also mentions a mod I made that will bypass the bug.

@PsychotpsI agree the usage seems off (-326), but the payment (196) is nowhere near the amount to generate such a huge bill:

[Psychotps]

@rostsit I agree. Looks like you got hit by two bugs.

The power drain problem in my report is where the "-326" came from. But -326 shouldn't make it 47K.

Unless you have a modded CC item in the build that's configured wrong.

@rostsit What I mean is the week after. Like you pay the enormous bills (cheat if necessary) and then make sure you're on your home lot the next time and check the bill amount.

With the bug, you pay for both lots and if you were on a rather expensive lot, it explains your issue.

There's one for another lot: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-Bills-are-wrong-amount-if-playing-another-lot-when...
