Sorry for the "copay" type
meaning a miles plus cash

Do you have UA miles? If so did they decrease?

Was the cash amount $550 each? The is the standard copay for T fare upgrade from europe --- plus 20,000 miles -withdrawal can be slow

miles+copay upgrade will be refunded if the Polaris segment does not clear and the domestic segment remain in F

PremPlus from economy is miles only no copay
