​I am a Galaxy S22 Ultra user and unfortunately, a vertical line appeared on my display on January 1st, 2026.

​I am aware that Samsung India has been offering a one-time free screen replacement for the S22 series due to this known issue, with the previous deadline being December 31, 2025. Since my issue appeared just one day after this date, I would like to know:

  1. ​Has the free replacement policy been extended into 2026?
  2. ​Is there a grace period for devices that develop the fault immediately after the deadline?
  3. ​Are there any specific service centers or "VOC" (Voice of Customer) channels I should contact to get this approved?
​My phone has no physical or liquid damage and has been maintained in mint condition. It feels unfair to pay for a display replacement (which is very expensive) for a defect that is widely acknowledged by Samsung as a hardware-software compatibility issue.

​I would appreciate any help or guidance from the moderators or fellow users who have successfully claimed a replacement this month.

​I contacted Samsung Customer Care about the line that appeared on my screen on January 1st. Even though the previous deadline was December 31, 2025, they confirmed that they have extended the free display replacement offer until July 2026!

Hi Samsung team, has the warranty for green line issue extended upto July 2026? I have a green line on my phone which appeared after March 2026 software update. Customer service has denied service citing warranty has expired (phone was bought in April 2022). Its unfair that I am having to bear this cost as the update itself was sent n happened after warranty and with samsung clearly knowing that an update could cause such an issue. Please help in getting the display changed. Mine is S22 Thanks Chaitra.
