Faulty Samsung UA65KS9500 installed by Samsung Signature

I bought a Samsung UA65KS9500 on the 26/11/2016, this TV was installed by Samsung Signature which results in a 5 Year Warranty, I have emails from Samsung ZA signature confirming this.

The TV now has a faulty remote button and the audio is no longer clear, rattling coming from speaker.

I contacted on April 1 2020 sending them the purchase invoice, Phiwayinkosi Qwabe mailed me on April 6 2020 saying that a technician would be sent out after the lock down, this was not done.

I contacted Samsung support on July 8 2020 and spoke to Tiisetso, he advised that I would have to pay a call out fee, I then explained the 5 Year Warranty to him, he then took approximately 30min to check something and then booked the repair Ref No ***.

I was called by TM Electronics this morning to arrange a repair and they are asking for me to pay a call out fee again, I have sent invoice for the third time with no booking made yet.

This is become a painful experience and they haven't even booked my faulty product in yet.

Reviewer Update
This is not going well, the unit was due to be fixed and parts were ordered, then it was decided the unit will be replaced by new unit, I get a call which I missed on the 14 August, asking if I received my replacement unit, first time I heard of replacement unit. Chatted to Samsung helpline, they advised someone will call me today, no call as yet.

Tried to return call which I missed on the 14 August, goes to a helpline.

No idea whats happening.
