I renewed my Realms subscription last night, rebooted the machine, logged out and back in to minecraft, and of course restarted minecraft, but my Realms still shows expired in the launcher, but on line the account shows renewed.
Any update? Seems there is no other place to get help with this or even chat with someone about this.
After reaching out to help.mionecraft.net, i was able to open a ticket and they resolved the issue I was having. My Realms now shows a valid subscription and works.
