Just to clear up a point.  Academic Licenses DO qualify for Tech
Support and upgrades if they are purchased by a qualified educational
end user such as a Student, Teacher, Faculty or Staff member of an
accredited educational institution, as defined by the manufacturers.

If you had been sold these licenses and you were not  an educational
end user, the license is not valid which would be the reason for no
upgrade or Tech support.  

I am with Micro Master.  We are an Authorized Educational Reseller.
In order to sell this we must have our customer send to us a copy of
their Student or Faculty Photo ID at the time of sale.  If someone is
selling you Academic software illegally, you may want to consider
reporting them to the manufacturer whose software they are selling
illegally.

Good Luck!
