Should of been apart of the monthly reward not the achievement like that watch is just bad.

Giving those tenders out for the 12 month achievement is fine, in my opinion. It’s a nice extra reward for sticking it out for that long. Even so, the watch was not enough. Just a couple hundred of tenders would have been nice to pair with it.

I find that hard to believe considering I’ve found reports of bugs from a few years ago that are still present in the game.

There have also been a ton of bugs there that are fixed now.
Bugs get prioritized by how many people they’re affecting and how gamebreaking they are. Some require a rework to the code of the whole game to get fixed, and those usually need to wait for the rollout of an entire patch or expansion. Some bugs they genuinely can’t replicate and they have no idea what’s going on. The Jingles pet from like, two Winter Veils ago was broken up until like earlier this year, it would summon as “Unknown” and you couldn’t use pet stones on it, and many don’t have the extra visual customization on them still to this day. It was frustrating and as an issue that affected me personally I was rabble-ey about it, but the plain fact of it was that it just wasn’t a big deal in the grand scheme of things as they tried to fix other issues that would actually block game progress for people above a cosmetic reward.
It seems like there are a growing number of people coming forward to say that their yearly endcap reward is bugged, and that means that you guys have a better chance of getting your stuff looked at. But there was a persistent bug with people’s purchased transmog items disappearing from their collections for like the better part of a year that was just about impossible for them to nail down.
Being mad that there’s a bug doesn’t make the bug go away faster. It’s not a customer service issue, where they’re just not giving out something because of policy where you can escalate up to someone’s manager and get a different decision, it’s a technical thing that they may or may not be able to find the cause of and correct as quickly as people might want.
Absolutely keep up with bumps and reports in the Bug Report forum. If it was me, I’d take some additional steps to go around and have people compare and see if it shows as 11/12 for everyone or if some are less, if it shows the same number being off on all of your alts, or if people can identify any commonality like I think at one point you mentioned you had a problem last month getting your reward, if that’s a shared experience, to help them narrow down if there are common factors. Keep mentioning it on GD, even. Squeaky wheels get grease.
But snapping at CMs about stuff they’re not involved in and don’t control isn’t going to help you in any way.

They’re big boys, they can handle it and don’t need you to white knight them.
Oh that is nice but I mean like everyone else I noticed the prices for things has gotten a bit excessive.

Hey, it’s your $14.99 a month and your life energy if you wanna spend it flailing at brick walls. It’s not going to get you on the subway any faster, but you do you.
I’ll go back to not trying to help you work through the process of productively getting eyes on your problem because you mad, and that’s the only thing that matters to you

You haven’t tried to help, you’re just playing defense for Blizzard.

Let’s be honest you should also get 500 tendies with the watch too if we’re being serious about it

It feels that way… doesn’t it 
Some stuff I swear they pop it in last minute and release a hotfix lol when it feels just deliberate to maybe quell the complaints or potentially see how they can drip feed people more currency.
Well that explains it… I didn’t spend those just in case…
I’m actually saving up so I can buy some furniture…
The watch is okay in models with soup-can sized wrists like male orc or draenei.
Female draenei you need an electron microscope to see that thing.

The item itself isn’t bad, no one would be complaining if it was a regular TP item, it’s just not valuable enough to be a good monthly reward.

It’s a new and unique transmog option that is about the most original reward so far.

What about those of us with all of the rewards but a missing month in the achievement?

If you did not finish January it’s 11/12 since trading post started in February and not January.

That post was made in December. Naturally any issues there would become 11/12 issues upon completion in January.
Thanks for the clarification but this confusion touches on a much bigger problem relating to how the tenders are treated by the game and the inability to easily keep track of them. It’s been a year now and I for one still don’t understand why the entire Trading Post infrastructure, right down to the way you open the chest and interact with the NPCs, behaves differently from the rest of the game. I am assuming there is a technical reason for all of this but the Trading Post really could have been integrated into the game better.
Granted, it is very unique and to me knowledge it’s the first time we have a high quality wristwatch. However, in my case, it would match with very few and particular set of transmogs (minimalistic transmogs perhaps?), idk it feels very limited; but again it is my view and I’m looking forward to see those outfits people will create.
Edit: Just got it and it is incredibly small and can baaarely see it. Big nope for me.
