Default Where's my free year of plugins?

I just renewed my annual upgrade plan for one year (it wasn't over til January). So, the way I understood the special offer, i'm supposed to get the full plug in package for a year with that. I looked in my account and didn't see any installers or plugin bundles. Did I misunderstand the offer, am I looking in the right place, or.....what?

Is the Avid Complete Plug-in Bundle now a permanent part of of any "active" Pro Tools perpetual plan or will we need to pay $49 next year if we want to keep it?

Wondering about this too. I've been waiting to activate it, since it seems to be good for 1 year only.

You can start a case to double check this but....

I think the plugins are active during the plan period only.

I activated my found plugins and, apparently, they run a year from when you activate. The date on my upgrade plan which I updated runs from its original date (mine ends in Jan and was extended to Jan 2019) and the plugin plan date ends in Nov 2018, a year from the date I activated.

(I'm a bit confused about all this. Didn't we always get these rental plugins with an active subscription? What's new here?)
