Nope. Quite the opposite experience here.

I disagree also that UA now "knows" you will give them your business. As many people here have pointed out before, once you achieve 1K there's incentive to switch to another carrier the remainder of the year to have status with a second airline. UA has every reason to treat their 1Ks well and for the most part they do.
