I have not received any code for upgrade to parallel 12

Hi, Peter. You will need to contact our Customer Support team for further assistance. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
The problem is thatParallel Desktops fails to control machines via USB from Windows from Mac. Only VMware Fusion does it right.
I got the emails saying I qualify for the free upgrade. Yet I have not seen anything about it. I came to this page from a link telling me that I’d learn more here.
So when would I get the free upgrade? Thank you
Hi, Robert. Please contact our customer service team for further assistance. Thanks!
There is nothing on https://eshop.macsales.com/specialOffers/parallels-desktop-12/ about the $39 upgrade for parallels, just the $79 (and the link there puts the $79 version in your basket). Will the page get updated?
Hi, Kara. Sorry for the inconvenience. Qualifying customers will be emailed a link to activate the $39 upgrade offer. In the meantime, you can contact our customer service team for further assistance. Thanks!
