I am experiencing two green lines and one pink line on the display of my Samsung Galaxy S23, which is related to a software update. The phone has not sustained any physical damage, and there are no external factors that could have contributed to this issue. I am confident that this is a software-related problem and not one that was caused by user negligence.

Despite being a loyal Samsung customer and purchasing a premium device, I was informed by the service center that my request for a free replacement was denied due to the fact that my phone was purchased overseas. I was offered a paid repair service, amounting to INR 9,000, which I believe is unfair given that this issue appears to be related to a software glitch rather than any physical damage.

As a long-time Samsung customer, I am deeply disappointed that an international brand with a reputation for quality and customer satisfaction would fail to provide support in such situations. I had expected a better resolution, especially considering the fact that my phone is relatively new and the issue has arisen due to a software update, which should be covered under warranty.

I kindly request that you review this matter and provide a satisfactory resolution, as I believe this is a clear case of a software issue that Samsung should address, irrespective of the country of purchase. I am also in the process of exploring legal options, including filing a complaint with the consumer court, if the matter is not resolved amicably.

I trust that Samsung values its customers and will take the necessary steps to ensure customer satisfaction. I look forward to your prompt response and hope for a resolution at the earliest.

This is just another convenient excuse from Samsung to avoid offering free replacements. Their 'Overseas Product' policy only applies to warranty issues and doesn't cover the green line problem. Interestingly, no such conditions are mentioned under the free replacement offer.

I’ve tried everything, buddy. I purchased my S21 Ultra in Australia, and Samsung Australia told me to send the phone via courier for inspection—at my own expense. Samsung India also refused to collaborate with them on finding a resolution.

Since you already have a job sheet number, I recommend using it as a reference to escalate the issue to the Service Head or the CEO Helpdesk team. While they will likely deny your request citing the same reason, their response will be in writing. You can then gather all the evidence and proceed to file a complaint with the consumer court.

It's been more than a month and I am still using my phone with two green lines because I refuse to pay them Rs 24k as replacement cost.

I have created a X post of my experience.
