This seems like one of those situations where UA loses in either case.
I'm confused.... . Why?
If I were the UGS, someone who spent a lot more money than you apparently on UA, and found out some "kid" got bumped up ahead of me because of politics, I too would feel cheated.
But that is not the situation here. I was supposed to be ahead of the UGS - as promised. The UGS would have never found out who cleared before him.
But you got what you paid for.
....and if the UGS wouldn't have cleared the list, then he would have also gotten what he paid for. What's your point?
Why are you now "entitled" to compensation?
I never stated that I was entitled to compensation - I asked for an opinion whether or not I was entitled to compensation. If you think I was not, then state your point briefly and respectfully.
So you were lied to. What, this was the first time it ever happened?
At United? Or in life?
I don't want to sound grinch-ish, but grow up. If you don't like what UA did to you, it is a free country. Take your business elsewhere.
I simply asked for an opinion - I don't know what that has to do with growing up.
I may have said that there won't be a next time, but who says that there won't? I just told him because at that point in time I felt that was the appropriate thing to say. Or do you think that it would have been better had I told him "Yes, there will be many more times I will fly United without question! Any united can continue to tell me things that are not true!"
