"Tickets booked through United channels will have the upgrade automatically requested.

Tickets that have not been booked at united.com or United Reservations must be requested through United Reservations."

My MP number is in the reservation and it shows up in my itineraries on united.com. Do I need to call them up? What would I tell the person on the phone?
Call them up.

There seems to be anecdotal evidence that the automatics of this system doesn't always work...

Just tell them you want to confirm you are placed on the Complimentary Upgrade list.
