A few months back I noticed a slight green tint in one of the corners of my LG 32UD99-W under certain conditions. Since then this has gradually grown in size and vibrancy and has now spread to all four corners and along the bottom edge.
After Googling the issue I discovered many other reports of the same on monitors that are around 2-years old (mostly in the customer reviews of a major online retailer). It seems that once the fault appears it only gets worse over time, eventually encroaching well into the panel. I searched the forum here but didn't find any similar reports.
For some people the green rot has appeared shortly after their warranty has expired and they are rightly very unhappy. This was not a cheap monitor as it was targeted at the "pro" market. I still have a couple of months of warranty remaining and so I am hoping LG will come good. I opened a support case a week ago and I am still waiting to hear back from them. The receipt said I would receive a response in 24 hours...
