I think the reason may be that "once a Greek House, always a Greek House" and if you could move the last sim out, no-one would then be able to move in.

That's not true. Once the last Greek occupant has left, any Sim can rent the lot and thereby restart the house.


Sorry, just thought that might be the case.

My problem now has got worse, I moved my sims from the phone affected house (can't call for transportation) into a Greek house as they had friends there, and now the sims in that house (all of them) can't call for transport!  I've never used the boolprop cheat, so would appreciate a bit of help in how to do it!

Gus Smedstad:
I've experienced the problem you describe, and it's not limited to Greek houses.  I seem to recall that the lot is permanantly waiting for one of your sims to move out, and that anyone else who tries to move out or use the taxi can't go because the lot is "stuck" that way.

I believe Pescado's "MoveOutBugFix.zip" hack fixes this, though I'm not sure if it will work with a lot that is already in this state.

Thanks a lot, I'll give it a try.  However, it's still very odd, I moved Gary and his sister out to a Greek House (he was already a member and she was friends with them, so that was easy) and I moved Keanu back to his Greek House.  The Greek House where Gary and Lisa moved has now go t the bug, but Keanu's house is fine.  My understanding is that it has something to do with the fact that Gary was kidnapped by the Secret Society, and for some reason nothing much happened once he got to the Society House except he cooked a meal, hung out with some of them, went off to lectures and then, since it was nearly time for his Final Exam, I got him to call a limo and go home - but he actually got a cab.  (Since he was my first kidnapping, I really didn't know what to expect, or whether he would do his exam if he stayed there and besides, there wasn't anywhere to sleep and all the members had gone home!)

And if Gary himself is corrupted, then even if I get him back to Pleasantview somehow, I suppose the same thing will happen when I move him to a lot there!

But I'll go and exit my game and try the MoveOutBugFix and let you know if it works.  Thanks for the help.

I had this problem in a dorm, not a greek house. Sim called for "Move back to whateverville", and the cab just didn't show up.

I started out with 6 sims in the dorm. The other 5 moved out no problem. I then moved a new sim in, before I let him move out, and he wouldn't go. I already had the moveoutbugfix in place and it didn't help in this case. I got a hacked object ... it looks like a money tree - I think it was twojeffs' but I'm looking over at Varioussimmers and don't see it.

Ah, ok, I found it - it's the MoveOutControllerResetter file here:  http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=51793&highlight=graduation

Thank you!  If the problem happens with this batch of grads, I'll give this a go.
