Interesting. I've had the opposite, though probably only 4 or 5 cases in recent memory. In each one, I noticed C before EF alert or the upgrade WL was processed...so I called and reticketed. This is particularly helpful when upgrading family members who have no status, and would have been prioritized low on the waitlist. No way to tell if we actually jumped the queue, though seems likely we did.
