SWU not shown as used...
Hypothetically, let’s say you had a flight that was messed up due to delays, etc. so when you were upgraded it was ticketed as full fare Y and got eqd based on distance (so all messed up) . The SWU is still there (they didn’t pull it) as they should have for the upgrade (yes they got upgraded).
What are the odds theu catch it and if they do, how long does it take for them to audit and find the error.

I have had it happen a few times.. upgraded at the gate, maybe the GA did not have time to type in all the necessary info on my reservation, has the flight was almost ready to leave.
If I remember correctly, I dont think it ever got pulled.
One of the times, it was pulled a few weeks later, and the other.... not sure,
(sucks getting old, it hard to recall what happened a few years ago)
