She said she would add my mileage plus but keep my one pass number in as well.

First mistake, can't put both in.

Called the Elite desk and was told 1k members were being upgraded to first ahead of Platinums? Is this true?

I had another manager tell me just the opposite that I would have priority on CO using my one pass and priority on United by using my mileage plus number. She suggested I change the number after my flight. Unfortunately, the trips are one day apart so this would be difficult.

Why is this such a cluster?
