With multiple pax in PNR, I did not even assume getting any email offers and did not receive anything either (

Post Scriptum if you look at the Wiki then almost all cash upgrade offers are for ticket class O.
I don't think that you can even travel in the passenger cabin on a lower class
.
There offers are made only when there are available seats in the J cabin. (I am ignoring the extremely rare J to F offers).
The number of passengers on a reservation does not affect the offer unless there are fewer seats than passengers on the reservation. Remember it is up to each individual passenger to decide to pay for an upgrade or not.
These offers are not as commonplace as this thread would suggest.
