No you don't. There is still the option to search online. It isn't as easy, but it is still there.

The GS desk is never closed.

Are you trying to change your IST-FRA flight? If so that won't work as SDC only applies to UA-operated flights. The UA folks in IST are contract employees handling one flight a day. Hardly a surprise they don't know things like SDC which would never apply at that station.
