Sent a recently married couple to Selvadorada and they got their normal 5K bill at home right before leaving, but on a Friday (bills had always arrived on Mondays previously). Then, an additional 35K bill on a Monday while they were on vacation. I had to use a cheat code - in fact - to cover the expense!

I understand that some others have had this happen to their Sims while on public lots at billing time as well, although this has not happened to me.

Having same issue in Selvadoradia. Rented the 8-bed house, next to the trailhed. The 2 sims I left at home are still going to work as normal, and am getting notifications of their daily income and promotions. Bills just came for a staggering $208k !

Normal bills while all sims are on home lot are roughly 60k, soooo...wth?

Additional info: PS4, no cheats, no mods

With the new billing system, please let me know if anyone is still seeing this issue.

[crinrict]

Does anyone still have issues with this after the bill update ?

My Sim just vacationed at Mt. Komorebi and came home to EXTREMELY high bills. 48,952 in lot taxes and 141,798 in unpaid bills! Normally my bills are around 30k!

@wilsonannier That's probably a double issue, the main one being getting bills for both lots which has been an issue since OR came out.

I moved your post over to that thread.

[wilsonannier]

@crinrict which thread sorry?

[crinrict]

@wilsonannier I moved your post to the thread on high vacation bills. It's in the correct thread now.

(although it does sound like you also have the other issue). Just seems more appropriate here.

@crinrict Happened to me today, my Sims who live in Mt. Komorebi went on vacation in Sulani, and on their 3rd day they got hit with bills about triple what they usually pay (they live in a Tiny House at home, so low bills).

First full day of vacation in Granite Falls - over 9,000 Simeoleons, as opposed to my normal bills around 800. This is the first time I've ever noticed this, but I very rarely ever have my Sims go on vacation. No mods, no CC. Most recent patch.
