Game Informer reports that users are beginning to receive messages alerting them to free extentions of their Xbox Live subscriptions. If the message has been receieved, you need not take any manual action--the extension has been automatically applied.
343 Industries issued an announcement last month stating that early adopters of Halo: The Master Chief Collection would be compensated for game's many launch troubles.

To qualify for the free gift, you had to have played the title online before or on December 19, 2014.
