    Hello

    I received double BTEA last week and I assumed that was because this week nothing would go through, but it did go through as normal!

    Should I be expecting a week where I will have no payment or is this just a bonus for christmas?

    I know there used to be a bonus for unemployment payments but they stopped that.

    The double you got last week just counts as your payment for next Thursday. No bonus.

    It seems strange, why not give me double today instead of last week?

    I'm not sure why they do it that way? It didn't really make sense to me either but that's just the way it is :)

    According to the info there you'll be paid next week but not the following week.
