So my GPUs showed up, and I used them to waitlist a previously bought itinerary where all segments where R0. After applying the GPU all segments showed the "upgrade requested" mark, and when looking at the seatmap the corresponding segments are listed twice, once allowing me to select seats in Economy and for the second time showing me seats in Business but not allowing me to select seats.

Today (a day after applying my GPU) I got an eMail from my travel-agency where I bought the ticket informing me of a schedule change, however all flights are exactly the same as before. When looking up my itinerary online I see that now the third segment has the "upgrade requested" mark gone and is still in listed as Economy. However for that segement (and only that segment) I am now able to select seats in Business.

Should I consider this as a sign that the upgrade already cleared on that segment? If so, will I still get an eMail or something actually confirming this? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
