Should I be seeing the lid ended for Heat and the plugins?
As far as I know, the offer applies to customers who have renewed since the offer was presented and not before.
The offer began sometime in November (not sure the exact date).

I recently activated a new perpetual & support plan after the offer was announced and have access to HEAT and the CPB as long as I remain current.

Is this just on Ultimate?

Included with standard PT & Ultimate if a timely renewal occurs after the offer announcement.
Or if a new perpetual is registered after the mid November date of the announcement.

See the "what you'll get" info with each plan renewal:

My perpetual license for HD Ultimate was renewed 10/3/21... am I eligible for the HEAT inclusion? I checked my account and I don't see it.

To all those asking, it seems that the free Heat offer is for those that renew their annual "perpetual update and support plan" since the offer was announced sometime in November 2021. If you updated before that, you will most likely not see the offer. You will most likely need to wait until the next year's renewal if it is still offered. Perhaps contacting Avid will help. Sorry if this is not what you wanted to hear.

Think of it like you just bought a computer and the month after there is a special deal where you get a free wireless earphones with the purchase of the computer. You usually can't go back and demand the free earphones since you bought it before the offer was available. There are specific promotion periods that are observed.

... or you can buy another renewal, as the new order is not canceling the old one but instead extends the support plan validity time accordingly.

^^^Good point for those that intend to continue to renew annually anyways.

Just checking - I always had the Complete Plugin Bundle, so this just adds Heat, yes?

One other positive from this. Lately all deals - financial and goodies - have been for subscribers only, and I was getting a little nervous that that this might suggest that they might be wanting to wind down perpetual altogether. This bone - modest sized that it is - suggests that is less likely.

With my more grumpy head on, given that if the annual plan lapses reinstatement is impossible, we're all now subscribers by any other name.

This offer gives you HEAT and CPB subscriptions for the time you have active support and update plan. If you let it expire, HEAT and CPB go away, unless you have perpetual license for them as well.

But yes, in your case your only gift would be HEAT subscription bundled in with renewal price. It still does not take your perpetual CPB license away, and should you like you can buy perpetual HEAT license any day.
