Has anyone been successful on a long haul flight (BNE or SYD to LAX) with the "UpgradeMe Points Request Waitlist"? On a waitlist as a Platinum for an upcoming flight (BNE-LAX), but haven't seen or heard of anyone being successful.

Not sure if this is very helpful to you. I just upgraded my business colleague using the "auction" system using $$$ from economy to premium economy. I would assume $$ would precedence ahead of points. It is worth watching the seats available on J. As a platinum, you will be getting first preference if they have no one bidding for the seat using $$
