We are very sorry to hear that you are experiencing issues with your monitor. Although your monitor is out of warranty, we invite you to contact Samsung Customer Support for troubleshooting to see if we can resolve your issue over the phone. If our Customer Support agent determines that service is required, they will review the flat-rate service fee for your monitor. It would not cover the cost of shipping your monitor to us, but does cover the cost of shipping the monitor back to you. You are responsible for shipping fees to Samsung Customer Service; we recommend using a trackable shipping service like UPS. You can reach Samsung Customer Support at 1-800-SAMSUNG and a representative will gladly help you. Thank you for choosing Samsung. Again, I am very sorry for the current issue. We look forward to hearing from you.
