Default Pro tools 10 free upgrade?

Hi community,
I purchased my Pro Tools 9 in September 2012 - well after October 9 , 2011 - which entitles me to a free upgrade to Pro Tools 10.
I have registered my product , however , I did not utilise my free avid support ticket within the 60 days of registration - so Of course, I cant contact them without paying for a new support package.

My issue : I have established I qualify for the free upgrade to Pro Tools 10 - how can I achieve that now?
I have not received a download link for the free upgrade to Pro Tools 10 - after I registering my Pro Tools 9 product ?

Is there a painless way I can make this happen :)

Thanks heaps - Legspinner from Australia

Hi ,
Was hoping not to call them as I am in Australia.
Foreign calls are always interesting but it looks like I will have to right?

If anyone else has any idea or an alternative to calling the support department - let me know please.

Why dont they have free support for all Avid customers that have graciously handed over cash to their company? just a thought....

Did you create a MyAvid account when you registered it? Did you give them the correct email and iLok account information?

Registration support is free I believe. No ASC needed.

Although the call from Austrialia is probably not.

Have you registered it? I'm not sure what the policy is on outdated stock. Depending on where you purchased it and if they were a authorized Avid reseller you may have some options. If it was purchased at a reduced rate as a closeout or from a third party you may not.
