United is pathetic. And I am one who paid for C and D on domestic 3-cabin flights. Note past tense.
In your case the complaint makes complete sense. People who've paid for a premium class on the 3 class domestic flights should be put in F with traditional domestic F service (or better). United should change their policy, but probably won't be smart enough to do so. United should also adjust their 3 class domestic ticket pricing as well.
My point is that for upgraders (who I believe to be the majority of those complaining), there is really nothing to complain about with the Domestic C service. You get a great seat for a domestic flight, you get drinks and you get something marginal to eat.
