I feel sorry for club front desk employees at the moment as I'm sure a lot of people recently signed up for the card and think they can just walk in with it, so they are probably having to deal with this a lot right now.

So I guess my question is answered. Because my fee was waived for the first year I didn't get the passes. But that definitely wasn't explained to me at any time in the (online) application process and I don't recall getting the option to, er, waive the fee waiver. Oh well, as I said above, I'll just continue to choose whether I want to pay for club passes on given individual itineraries this year (and if I order two passes online from united.com they will only cost $78).
