Total PQD are correct, and PQM look correct too. Does United re-price segments after purchase and thus reallocate PQD for each segment, or is it more likely the listed PQD are just wrong? Of note, I'm in the S bucket AAA-BBB, but the currently lowest quoted W fare is stated to earn substantially fewer PQD than my receipt says for S if I re-quote the same itinerary.

If the PQD are wrong, how can I determine the price I paid for the AAA-BBB segment? I'm considering GG BUYUP to A and it would be definitely worth it if the implied amount I paid based on PQD is accurate (<$100 upgrade for a TCON)--not so much worth it if the original website segment price I remember being quoted is accurate.
