I think it is more like 90% (that do not). 99.8% of big companies that are the largest employers do not...

Upgrade success:

I booked (mid december) two R/T's SFO/GCM transiting through IAH. Outbound late Feb, return early March. Booked on CO.

Applied 4 CR-1's that I transferred from my MP account. 3 legs of my partners (GM) itinerary cleared immediately, as did two of mine.

Over the holidays I received an e-mail that the remainder had cleared.

When I looked at our (seperate) reservations on CO.com, it still showed the old economy (pre-upgraded) seats and in a seperate tab had the same flights but with the upgrades to F. Kind of confusing. I called in to the Plat line and they cleaned it up so now the reservations only show the F seats. Not sure what caused this behavior or why I had to call in to clean this up.
