Now complaining about the FA getting the upgrade when you were number 1 on the list might get you a few miles but I doubt it. Upgrades are never guaranteed.
BOS-SFO-SEA I consider it a wasted RPU because SFO-SEA is a route I wouldn't have bothered with because every elite made that CPU and we have empties on that flight all the time.

Well, no apology, no nothing beyond thanks for writing. This was sent to 1kvoice and it's coming back from "Partner Services". Looking back at the few times I've written 1kvoice they've signed it as MileagePlus Service Center. Partner services is gods knows what.

Amazing United.... i'm caring about as much about you as you are me these days. Shame. Oh, and the busted form "insert prefix and member last name" is them... they didn't bother to fill it out.

Write back to escalate saying that the UA rep didn't address the problem?

Well I got my RPU back.

I shot 1kvoice an email reply, asking if that's really the only response i get; I got a service director back apologizing for the confusion, a promise to kick it up to management along with the RPU. Wonder if I would have gotten it back had some help desk rider at "Partner Services" not just been clicking through their queue of non 1ks when they sent me a gibberish response.

I can't decide whether to write them back and tell them that this type of inconsistency is what is making flying with them so frustrating.

You got what you wanted, anything else screwed up is their problem!
