From http://www.united.com/page/article/1,,50027,00.html:

Upgradeable Booking Classes: This upgrade may be used on United Business (C,D) and United Economy fares (Y,B,M,E,H,U,Q,V,W,S,T,K,L) in Region 1, except where the terms and conditions of sale state that the booking class is not eligible for an upgrade.
Are there reports on FT of GM's upgrading discount fares eith e-500's, or is this more misinformation from united.bomb?
