Samsung Failed Me: TV Returned Damaged, Poor Service, and Warranty Void

I am beyond frustrated with Samsung's service. After sending my 65-inch TV for repair, it was returned to me with physical damage. I immediately reported this to Samsung, and they initially seemed helpful, but now I’ve been told that the warranty is void due to the damage, and my case has been closed.

The damage was reported the day the TV came back from the service center, and it had only ever been moved from the store to the center. How can I be blamed for something that happened under their care? To make matters worse, the TV isn’t functioning as it should.

The service I’ve received from the Voice of Customer department has been shocking—especially from Vaughn, who was dismissive and rude. This is a major purchase for my family, and to be treated like this is unacceptable. I’ve been told to take the matter to the ombudsman, but all I want is a working TV in the condition it was in when I sent it for repair.

This experience has left me deeply disappointed in Samsung, and I would appreciate any advice or help.

Unbelievable! And shocking - just so we on the same page - this doesnt end here - and you have not only lost a customer - you have lost 4 customers as my entire family use your devices - (that I pay for) - that we simply will not be returning... or using your device again! You have literally not stood by your promise of warranty and then have physically damaged my TV and take no responsibility! That is beyond pathetic! You should be ashamed!
