Is that 4 ?
That is crazy four screens all with the same fault. I would seriously consider getting one from Dell as they should be a different batch.
If you use the link I posted above and register the screen to yourself they will exchange it for you I believe on your doorstep.
5 not 4![]()
I am gonna keep it even though it's ****** up, so when the new Samsung comes out Il switch it through amazon.
Which new Samsung are you referring to?
Has anyone seen what the later models are like?
I've currently got 3 of these, all about a year old. I'm thinking of getting Dell to replace at least 2 of them (all have back light bleed, one also has a couple of bright spots) I'm just trying to work out if any issues have been fixed, and no worse issues occurred in later models.
If bought from a seller (such as OcUK) how do you go about registering this so that you can check warranty status etc? Each time I attempt to register I just get "Invalid Service Tag" message?
If you purchased direct from Dell a few days after delivery if you log into your account and use the "Check my Warranty status" tab under my products and services it will be in there. No need to register as everything is done from the service tag.

If you did not purchase direct from Dell you will need to do an ownership transfer (Register) as the warranty will be registered to the dealer you purchased from. Once you have done this you can then request repairs etc from Dell under the three year warranty without needing to go through the original dealer.

If you have purchased the monitor from someone else second hand and it is less than 3 years old then you will need to do an ownership user transfer, This takes up to 15 days to register in the new name.
