If the agent processed it as a change and charged the change fee and fare difference to match fare class availability (probably the agent misconstrued the F SDC policy and charged you to move to an earlier F cabin flight) that is an error. Call back and ask for a Supervisor to get it refunded.

Once you heard the agent's attitude, you should have HUCA. Also, if both tickets are on DL ticket stock, DL should be able to send your backs through and transfer them for you to CZ/CE.
You can only SDC on an international itinerary after all of the international segments have been flown.
