Earlier this week I got an instant "upgrade" to C+ while I was on the phone with a DM agent buying the ticket. Fortunately I didn't get stuck in a middle seat, but there were many C+ seats available when we proceeded to pick seats.

I described upgrades as perks which Delta grants to me for reaching DM level. I think we both agree Delta has every right to take away or grant more perks. And if the perks degrade to a level that I no longer feel that I'm valued by Delta then I'll take my business else where.
