Dark shadow on left hand side of TV screen

[colwalsh]

anyone got experiernce of similar issue? UE49NU7100 tv has dark shadow on left side of screen. About 3 yrs old so would expect its not under warranty but also not sure how to check. 

Have completed recommended checks i.e. surge protection, and comfirmed its not just source issue. Its a little disappointing and not the first time have had issues with screen on samsung tv - will be staying away in future

Clearly a defect with your product if so many have this issue. How is Samsung justified in not solving this for customers?

Same here. Cost to repair (not counting time and trouble to set up repairs) is about the same as a brand new TV with newer technology.
