This came after she reached 10,400 subscribers for the month of October. Bbjess has enjoyed an incredible last few months on Twitch, climbing to 42,000 followers and more than 10.4k subscribers despite a short-lived 19-hour ban. The fruits of 26-year-old\u2019s labor \u2014 more than \u201ctens of thousands\u201d in subscriber earnings \u2014 failed to make it to her as quickly as she expected.

The Just Chatting star was whacked with a ban on October 20, which was eventually revealed to be due to her iconic \u201cbbjessBoobees\u201d emotes. The emotes were removed for \u201cimagery of sexual content or nudity,\u201d and Jessica was barred from Amazon\u2019s site for a 19-hour window before it was resolved. \u201cI know this probably isn\u2019t the case, but since everything [payment-wise] is working on my end, it should have gone through, [so] it feels like punishment for being outspoken over being unrightfully banned,\u201d she said. \u201cWhat scares me is smaller creators have said they\u2019re in similar boats and have gone months without getting paid. That is not an option. This is my full-time job.\u201d \u201cI just want proper communication,\u201d the Twitch star told Dexerto. \u201cIt\u2019s sad to know that after working hard to become a partner and grinding to become top 80 most-subbed, it still isn\u2019t enough to get to talk to a human or have a manager. It\u2019s terrifying that I just wasn\u2019t paid, and it feels unprofessional.\u201d Bbjess\u2019 partnership contract with Twitch states the Amazon-owned website has a 45-day period from the end-date of each month to pay earnings. bbjess finally paid by Twitch After multiple attempts at contacting Twitch support, bbjess told Dexerto that it was a mass issue with payments for the month of October, as she and several others were sent their missing payments on December 2. The Twitch star also shared the good news on her Twitter account. 6 hour road trip done and now I\u2019m at the hospital waiting for moms heart surgery to be done. Got some good news in the meantime. pic.twitter.com\/8MyCslZvDc \u2014 bbjess \ud83d\udd1c Dreamhack Dallas (@bbjessTTV) December 3, 2021 On November 22, bbjess shared that she recieved a response from Twitch stating that her payment method had been suspended. However, given the fact that she has recieved her full October payment, its safe to say that suspension has been lifted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Streamer bbjess finally paid by Twitch following debt of \u201ctens of thousands\u201d Twitch: bbjessPopular Just Chatting streamer \u2018bbjess\u2019 revealed that she has been paid by Twitch after an alleged payment issue left her without tens of thousands of dollars.
