have not been able to add money for a week or 2 already.

This page seems to say discontinued - https://secure.unitedmileageplus.com/BuyMiles/RegistryManage2.jsp


but the regular page says under maintenance

A shame, I managed to get all $200 under the wire and was eagerly waiting for January to roll around to add another $200.  Quite a bit can be done with $400, but not so much with $200.

Credits already in your account can still be used.

The question is how to use the $200 allowance for the amex plat going forward

Doesn't say discontinued.
I'll reach out to UA to see whats up.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.
