Does everyone’s start off with a 0 balance and 0 weekly benefit balance? How does that work?

This is incorrect - a 0 balance means you were denied benefits or had an old and the new one has not yet been approved/updated. Check the amount on your award - if it states 0, this is a denial.

I’ve learned a lot from Ginny’s channel and you were a thankful person who taught me Claimyr so I could get it resolved after speaking with thru Claimyr and a local assembly member involved ( I watched when you called Claimyr directly and got through; test call 😏) and I’ve been a subscriber over a year, I guess. When started. Maybe over 2 years, not sure but I’ve watched every day and asked you on comment when I had over pandemic. However, I had a different experience with claim. I have an experience because of Edd’s error over my claim. I first received 0 balance determination award and then I thought I was disqualified.  But then 1-2 weeks later, I received both disqualification and an award showing updated a benefit amount. So that was super mess experience. I got super confused with two different outcome so I called and tier 2 said I’m qualified so disregard a disqualification notice. So I think if doesn’t mind paying claimyr to speak with tier 2, I still believe it’s best to contact to double check if it’s truly or not or who mind calling may send a message to to double check. I am thankful works very hard but I personally don’t trust 100% because they gave me lots of difficult time over their outdated system and mistake. I still remembered every time I speak with them, all responded differently on the same day. One agent told me I got no identity issue and everything looks good but the other agent told me I got an identity issue. I am just trying to learn by watching your channels, Shelly’s, other channels, official website, tier 2 directly or thru other claimants who are willing to share their story over representatives. So I’ve been your fan for Edd’s ( I was a commenter you are better than 😬and you should work for ) but, I would like to share there was an when made a mistake. I thought I was a victim at that time with two different outcomes. Anyway, have a good night…It’s 3 am in the morning. 😬

To all those having trouble reaching a human at the EDD. I just ran across this video that gave me a shortcut to reach a human. Hope it helps! https://youtu.be/Ize0EkN4HDI
