Poor service and products

I am writing this review to express my extreme disappointment with the service I received from Game Mitchell’s plain I purchased a TV on 16 November, and after switching it on for only the third time, a line appeared in the middle of the screen. This is completely unacceptable for a television that is only a week old and should be in perfect working condition. When I contacted the store, I was told that I needed to contact Samsung directly because it’s their product. This response is unfair and unprofessional. I bought the TV from Game, so the responsibility to assist me lies with the store. No customer should be sent from pillar to post for a product that is brand new and already faulty. At this point, I feel like my money has gone to waste. I am extremely frustrated and angry with the poor service from both Game and Samsung. This is not the standard of customer care one expects after purchasing a new appliance. I am requesting an urgent resolution to this issue and a replacement TV without any further inconvenience. Very disappointed

Reviewer Update
Good day,
Thank you for the response.
I would like to highlight that although I have lodged the complaint, I still have not received any feedback or update from your team. The service I am experiencing is really unacceptable, especially considering that the television is only a week old.
I want to make it very clear that I do not want the TV to be repaired. The Samsung case has been registered under number ***, but I am not satisfied with the solution of repairing a product that was faulty from the start. I purchased a brand new television, not a used or refurbished one. By repairing it, you are essentially selling me a used TV, which is unfair.
I expect a replacement with a brand new unit, as the TV was faulty within days of purchase.
I look forward to an urgent resolution.
Kind regards,
Chad
