Windows 10: How do I get Java even though i already own bedrock edition

I bought Minecraft Bedrock not to long ago but i do not have Java edition. I was told I'm entitled to have java for free because they're now sold together but I'm still being told to pay for it.

Minecraft Java & Bedrock merge is broken?

I'm not able to play minecraft java. I originally bought bedrock edition, and assumed with the new merge update that I would now be able to play java edition as well. Pressing play brings up a menu asking me to make a minecraft name, but doing that will cause it to respond with "failed to create profile". I instead tried putting in my microsoft user, which didn't work either (it said it was taken). I saw other websites saying to go to the minecraft page and open a dropdown menu for java in your profile tab, but i can't do that because i bought bedrock edition and it doesn't process that i should also have java with the new update. Am I misunderstanding how the update works? Is there a step i need to do to get both versions to work?
(edit/adding onto the update info says i should be able to go to the games page, and java should say "get" instead of "buy", but mine still says buy

 

Minecraft Bedrock edition for free (already have JAVA)

My friend said that if i bought Minecraft Java edition, i could get Bedrock Edition for free (Windows 10) but i dont see how to get it.

 

Minecraft Bedrock and Java Bundle

So I got sent the email that I was eligible to get Java edition since I own Bedrock edition but I follow the steps sent in the email but it doesnt show the "get" button as it states in the email as shown in the image below. I dont know if i did something incorrect or whats wrong with it. It's been a month but I still can't redeem Java.
