Trust nothing they say! Verify everything! And document all of your calls to MP.

Good luck, and please come back here to report if you actually got the seats that you were supposed to have.
Update.

I tried to change it again (it was a nearly full flight. When I booked it originally I could get a middle seat in E-; then I moved it to middle seat in E+; last change was to window seat in E+).

Again, same story, ie, it all seemed to work fine but when I came back to it 30 min (or 1 hr or 2 hr) later it was still the old seat.

Anyway: I now checked-in online, and the boarding pass printed with the E+ window seat -- even though the reservation was still showing the E+ middle seat.

PS I am 1K and there was no equipment change on this flight
