Trying to see if this seems normal:

I applied an RPU to a flight IAH-SFO on an H fare ticket. I didn't clear the waitlist at T-24 and after checking in I'm #14 out of 33 on the list as a 1K.

I've applied an RPU on this route before that typically get the upgrade or it puts me in at least the top 5 on the list. I know it's hub-hub with a lot of elites but does it look strange that i'm so far down the list with an RPU as 1K?

If it makes any difference, I had to call the 1K desk to check myself in because it wouldn't let me online. Could something the rep did potentially negate my RPU?
