Hello,
At years end in 2025, I just missed the cut line to achieve Silver status.
I posted in a thread last year to get some ideas or to try and do a couple more flights to make it but in reality I didn't.
So now, I just received this buy-up into Silver.

Is the buy-up offer worth it? And if yes, is it better to pay with my United points 26,910 or just pay the $269?
Thank you for all your advice.
