How did you clear the upgrade w/o the space available? I hear global upgrades clear 95% as long as your   Not on a packed flight
I have no idea. This is a packed flight. My guess is that it's because its from a GS account.

If I am going on standby as a premier silver and there are other members with higher status than me waiting on the upgrade list, who will clear first?

No there is an upgrade standby list and a flight standby list.
Regardless, what in the world is your question?

I am booked in J on a afternoon flight for tomorrow, DL put me on standby for an earlier flight, I am the only one on that list, but there is a upgrade standby list as well. Now, at the gate where there will be some empty seats in J, who will clear first, I as someone who paid for J or people on the upgrade list? Hope this is clear enough  :-\

If you get PR-1 status you have a good chance as of now. There is still 7 seats for sale, and I would guess that some additional seats are being hold by travel agents (who hope for a last minute customer  ;) ) as well.

I hear, so this account that I'm booking from is not a united card holder, and it's under israeli address....
The question is, if I call in will they ask me all sorts of questions? (The account is not mine)

Just call in as you're the account holder. (Assuming you know his name)

Good luck for your upgrade! Keep us posted!
