You should get points based on the original class of travel.
Upgrades are a pure lottery. QF gives first priority to QFF members who request an upgrade with points, and after that they consider bid upgrades. Quite how they prioritise those is unclear, but you are going to be competing against QFF members who have made similar bids and will have priority. If you are looking to upgrade a TPAC flight then I would say your chances are very low. The only tip I can give would be to bid very high.
