Recruit a Friend rocket

I've done R-A-F a few times, and never had a problem.

A while back, I recruited my own account for a brief test to make sure that RAF was working as I thought it did, because I was trying to recruit someone else and they weren't getting the email. We got that straightened out, but I've been sitting with a dead trial linked to my battle.net account since.

Well, I decided that I wanted another rocket, so went ahead and upgraded the trial, and paid for 3 months via credit card (I just entered the payment today).

Now R-A-F is showing that I have received a free month of game time, but not the mount, and I can't claim it.

As it stands, my battle.net has
Pre-battle.net account active
Pre-battle.net account active
Pre-battle.net account inactive(paid to shuffle all my characters around to the other two on this b-net, and a couple to another b-net account)
"WoW 1" account active, this is the R-A-F account I am concerned with.

Since I let the trial end, and lapse for so long, am I no longer eligible for the mount from this account?

Or is something else going on? Does the R-A-F account need to stay active for 2 months even though it is paid in advance?

Edit: The free month of game time for upgrading expired today.

I was able to locate the account, Irilunen.

Based on what I see the mount will not be earned until you are charged for a second month of game time. You have currently used up your initial 30 days of game time and the first payment went through. In order to obtain the mount, you are required to pay for at least two months.

I am concerned about the account possibly not being liked correctly at this point. If you are having any issues with in game bonuses such as 3X experience or summoning, you may want to contact our billing and account services.

Q u o t e:
Please re-read the posts in this thread.

The 90-day link has expired, that is not the issue.
Understood, Irilunen. Just wanted to make sure you don't miss out on all the features. =)
Q u o t e:
The first payment was not for one month, but for THREE Months, which I believe in the past times that I have used R-A-F immediately granted access to the rewards.
If a 3 month payment goes through, you are correct, the mount should be granted immediately. I'm afraid the account i'm looking at only has a one month recurring subscription set up.
