Gears of war4 season pass doesn't work any more.

Got season pass with ultimate edition that worked fine, but after the latest gears of war 4 update game doesn't detect my season pass. Many people having the same problem, but game devs don't do anything about it. Microsoft, please sort this mess out.
Thanks.
