Stuck Pixels keep re-appearing

Hi all new to the forums,

Recently bought a 20" Samsung pebble from OcUK and unfortunaly it has two stuck pixels. Using a stuck pixel fix from the internet and using the massage technique they disapear until i turn off the monitor and put it back on.

Going through the process again it removes them until i turn the monitor off. Will these keep appearing or will the eventually disappear?

Anyone had this problem before and had them disappear for ever?

Thanks

PS. This is my second one as i have already RMA'd it once. Don't fancy returning another one.

Doesn't sound like something that would actually get better over time.

Yup, that's why I'm dreading buying a decent monitor soon...

If you're brave enough, put a cloth over the tip of a pen and press in gently to the stuck pixel. It should go back to normal.

Or you could put your fist through it and make them all die. Then RMA it

In addition to the pen thing you should also try using you finger covered with a cloth that won't damage the screen. Then just gently "massage" the stuck pixel area with your finger.
