Also, it may be pure coincidence, but as soon as the upgrade was put on, one of the seats was blocked out in C. Was that mine perhaps? Has anyone else noticed this?
Long, long story. Seats available, yes, but maybe unassigned, and UA is still hoping to sell seats before granting upgrades. A seat being assigned may or may not be related to your upgrade. Has your upgrade cleared? If so, they usually automatically assign the most forward, open lower-deck seat, in my limited experience. Just call UA and ask.
