I'm quite sure I recall being able to select seats and pay the difference on the UA website.

On UA? You’ll be able to buy up to E+ (which is seat selection) but not Premium Plus (which is a different class).
(EDIT - they may offer a paid upgrade at check-in if you have a Mileage Plus number attached to the booking it seems.)
