Grateful for any thoughts because customer care is not helpful.

THank you!
Welcome to FT1
CPU is only for United's own premier members. As *A Gold, you are eligible for UC access. Your past experience with CPU may be a mistake.
I flew Air New Zealand recently. The only treatment for *A Gold is the early boarding and lounge access. I had to pay for a more spacious economy seat. ANZ does not have FC seats on A320.
