Yes, well I no longer do business with the travel agency in question and I would prefer that they be completely out of the loop on all my travel, and that 'ownership' comes to me. The ticket is in my United Account of course but I would prefer for the agency to not have any more control on the ticket. So it sounds like I can call United and for $50 take ownership of it.. cool
