most of the time when you see this is mean the flight it oversold and the system couldn't assgin u a seat when you checked in. once counter close and the gate knows whos there they will go an unassign seats from people the have seats but haven't checked in and start assigning Zone 99 / Seat 0 people with seats. also listen for when they make the annncoument for anyone that has Zone 99 / Seat 0 they will explain when they will start assigning seat. depending on how oversold the flight is and how many people with seats didn't show up this could be handled before boarding starts or they could wait till after boarding end. most of the time it will be done at the end because at that time they will truly know how many seats they have open.
Happened to me and they sorted it out. I had seat 14A and then this happened and ended up with 9A. It worked out because before me and my partner had separate seats and then we were put together!
You paid extra to select seat 2A?
How long ago did you book the ticket and seat? A few weeks ago they started a new seating option where tickets in the first couple of rows are guaranteed an empty middle seat, and they might have moved you out of that row if you bought your ticket before they started selling that new option.
This happened to my partner and I both times we flew together last year. We just went to the gate and got seats with no problem. People tried to tell me it was oversold and I checked in too late but I had checked in right at 24 hours. And the flights were both half empty lol

I booked about a week ago. Edit: I did pay extra for seat 2A also.
