I looked at some of the other posts about missing rewards, but my case seems different from those already posted.
I started using Brave on October 3rd, so this November would have been my first payout. The wallet is NOT VERIFIED. I absolutely have NOT pressed the link to reset rewards.
On Oct 31st, the stats page indicated about 5.8 BAT pending.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a capture from the rewards page on Oct 31. I had to restore the old profile from a backup. As soon as the browser sees the date has changed, it zeros the estimate. It took a few tries just to get the above image.
On Saturday, Nov 13th, a claim button appeared on the rewards page and it has persisted until now - but when I press it, nothing happens. The Oct and Nov statements both say 0 BAT is/was earned.
In order to get the screen capture from Oct 31, I moved the existing Brave profile folder to a new location, then restored from backup a copy of the profile as it existed on Oct 31.
That is: I did not F_ up and lose my BAT by accidentally (or on purpose) by overwriting the profile.
I was able to capture the stats screen from the old profile before the browser noticed the date change and zeroed everything. The computer was not connected to the internet while I was doing this.
