I'm not Square-Enix support, obviously, but I think in order to have the legacy perks you needed to be past a certain point in the 1.0 story and to have been actively playing (or at least, subscribed) in a certain window prior to the shutdown; if you took a break for "a few years" prior to A Realm Reborn, you may not have qualified.

(I'm not 100% certain on this, though; my own 1.0 character is on a defunct account tied to an email address I no longer have, so I made a new account when ARR launched.)
