Vet rewards are only awarded for active months, so the months you had an inactive account don't count towards it.
Check your PlayNC account to find out the dates that you are due to get them

Open your badge window, and you'll find the vet badges listed under a separate tab - just click the "Claim X" button.

Brilliant, thanks all, it was that extra tab under badges I didn't know about.
Welcome back! 
To claim your Veteran Rewards just open the Badge menu and click on the Veteran Badges tab. You should see all your Veteran badges and their associated rewards listed underneath each as clickable options.
Also, some Veteran Rewards, like angelic and demonic wings and an assortment of costume parts, are automagically granted to your characters, so they're available right away when you visit the Tailor.
Oh, and be a bit careful if choosing between such Veteran Powers as, say, Sands of Mu or Ghost Slaying Axe, as you will only get to pick one of them on each character. So choose wisely.

If you're unsure of which vet power to pick when given a choice it can be worthwhile rolling a couple of new alts just to try each out (as new characters will get the vet rewards).

Hi, I have had a CoH account for about 18 months now, but it whas been inactive for the last several months. Now I've re-activated I find that I'm apparently entitled to some veteran rewards. The only problem is that I can't seem to find out how to actually claim these rewards.
Any pointers?
