DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY, DO NOT BUY LG!!!

I bought my first LG product and I will never think of buying another. I bought a 65inch LG UHD TV (65UJ630V), like many others on here it just made it through the 2 year warranty and then the backlights went. Blue screen with around a R4000 bill to repair from LG. Oh and they only give 4 months warranty on the repair. After doing some research I found that the repair will only last another 2-3 years as they use like for like parts which are substandard to begin with. There is clearly a manufacturing issue with these TV's as in other countries like the UK they repair or replace even out of warranty due to consumer rights laws, not so in SA.

I contacted LG customer care on many occasions and was told my issue was being escalated ( whatever that means?) , but never heard back from them. When trying to make contact again they just send me around the same circle of questions and supposed escalation process with no positive outcome.
