That was a $3k one-way ticket and I am quite upset about the meager compensation especially given I am a mid-level premier status. I told them that it wasn't acceptable and that I would be taking my transcon business class flights with another airline in the future and they did not care. Anyone else had a bad experience like this / any advice on trying to get this fixed??

Sorry to hear that. Welcome to the new world of UA which do not care about the customers. I am accustomed to the service qualities of US3 - 'It is what it is'-attitude.
Does anybody know OP has a case to file complaint against UA and file chargeback because it is not what OP paid for?

Is this really in the ToCs of customer protection rights? If that's the case it seems to be that Y fare, PEY fare, and F fare have the same
