WEEKLY BENEFIT AMOUNT CHANGED?? UI/PEUC/EB

OKAY HERE IS MY QUESTION THO:

EDIT

I should clarify I had opened this Sept 2019 after I got fired, but then immediately found a new job so I never even claimed any weeks nor received any benefits. I then opened it back up March 2020 - it did say "ended 08/29/20" originally, but in the benefits tab within the claim said 12/26/20 (peuc assuming ya?) & that now says 4/10/21

---‐‐-----------------‐-------------------------‐‐---------------

So,

it told me to apply for EB since my UI/PEUC were set to expire 12/26/20, so i did...

well now my "new" ui claim and its WEEKLY benefit amount is $210 less than the previous UI.

i read that you can apply for new eb benefits link and it will NOT change your amount...

my "expired" UI/PEUC claim (that i was filing under the entire time march-dec 2020), says i have 9 payments left until 4/10/21. so... haven't used all of my benefits anyways...........

i also applied for the PUA loan back in march 2020 because it prompted me to (later talked to a ESD employee that said to file under other claim).... well, that has 57 payments til 4/10/21.... so haven't even been using that one.

now my old UI claim with the 9 payments left is greyed and expired...

...and my NEW claim w/ lower weekly $$ that I opened last week (12/28/2020) has 26 payments until 12/25/21........ is asking me to file my claim there

what do i do? file? or try to contact someone?
I really rather not lose out on $210 more a week... Or am I doomed... and don't understand how I maybe entered my income differently?

The EB wasn't the same as when I did the UI/PEUC I thought... less info needed? Am I able to close the new claim and wait to see if old one fixes itself? Or no?

I felt pretty confident about all of this and now I'm nervous to file for this last week 12/27-1/2
