Samsung Z 3 flip

[Tedd1]

my galaxy zip 3 fold only less than 4 months old LCD screen has a fault started with a green stripe and day after black screen

Customer services are awful sent phone to them and sent it back unfixed as I was quoted £318 to fix this I have refused told to take it to a local shop for quotes which I have done and the reports IV received are similar to Samsung but also the mother board has a fault Samsung not interested told me to pay or I get no help warranty means nothing 

So next step I'm seeking legal advice as I'm paying £30 a month till 2025 I was told to take another contract out for another phone and pay for both contracts ...erm I don't think so easier to take it further and not deal with Samsung Right Rip Off Don't buy this phone

Hi @Tedd1 

These phone's are expensive and I appreciate it's also expensive sometimes to have them repaired.

I assume Samsung has advised you as to why the repair isn't covered under the Limited 2 Year Manufacturers Warranty,  which does not cover accidental damage.

This may help > Consumer-rights-act-2015. 

However you decide to proceed I wish you all the best.

With respect how can this be accidental damage? There are so many fold and flip owners reporting the same issues with Samsung wanting them to pay for what is a design flaw. Honestly I would not be surprised if there's a class action lawsuit over this soon
