It's like the postman who always gets sidetracked from collecting the mail is Pao, Dagmar doesn't, at least, not so often.

So, does he actually forget and not pick up the mail then?  Apart from stuck bills, that we no longer have to worry about, so many people have complained about warnings and Repo man.  When players say they have posted the payments and still get the warning and/or RM - is this what is happening?  I have received warnings and was surprised by RM I think once, but I am surprised I don't get it more often.  If I get caught up in some activity they are doing, sometimes I forget about the mail - but I do that in RL, too.

ZephyrZodiac:
Yes, you get some wandering sim walking down the footpath, and Pao is so busy waving etc that he doesn't pick up the mail!  It never happens on tuesdays and thursdays (delivery day) though!  And if he doesn't collect it on the Saturday, that's when the repo man comes calling!  (And that's when I activate the debugger!!!!!)

Bane~Child:
That is where the problem has to be then.  There is supposed to be a four day period between delivery and payment, before you get the warning.  If it's not getting picked up on Saturday, then that will extend it past the four days allowed.

ZephyrZodiac:
Well, I don't know, since when they deliver thursdays bills, they always collect Tuesdays payments, but it's on Friday and Saturday that if they get side-tracked, then they don't.  I don't think the repo man will come till the Monday, which would make the 4 days, but you obviously need to kill the stuck bills before that!  Once the repo man arrives, you can't kill stuck bills as the option no longer appears on the debugger.
