They got shafted.
Their limit should have been 70 lbs, as they were flying in C. Doesn't matter whether they purchased it or upgraded; if you have a confirmed C seat, you can use the C checkin counters, C security lanes, etc., and C weight limits should apply.
There's certainly nothing to indicate otherwise on the UA baggage limits page.
Sounds like there's some confusion about these limits among UA TA's. Imagine that.
