No, I'd owe United more money than just letting the residual time out. Why?

Because the fare, using the original ticket and making a change to the return, would price out at $1350. Add the $250 change fee and you have $1600. A new ticket, outright, would be $1380-something.

So no money coming back. No use for the remainder.
