Summary: LG support Center in Erode charged Rs 7, 900 to replace a broken LCD panel for a new 26" Jazz TV. The charge was accepted, the panel was replaced, but it was found that the replace panel was not an IPS panel as in the model, it was of a lower technology and there was a serious picture quality issue of violent signal disturbances. The complaint was logged, but the service center evades acknowledging the mess up, but I am given to understand that a mess up has occurred at the service center.

It is nearly three weeks since your service Managers Saravanan and Sesadhri
from Erode paid a visit to my premises, their explanations on the issue of
fixing a substandard ordinary panel in place of the IPS panel was vague. It
was strange that your service personnel tried to argue about the features of
an IPS panel to suggest that what is installed is an IPS panel, and it the
same time wondered if the original TV came with an IPS panel. The
third argument was that the replacement was as per part number. In the
middle of the visit they called another one of their colleague the Area
Service Manager? who also tried to convince me with the same confusing and
conflicting arguments. None of them were willing to admit the mix-up that
occurred at the parts despatch / replacement.
They were told very clearly again that:
1. This model of Jazz came with an IPS panel, but the service center took
the full payment and replaced the broken panel with a panel of an older
technology.
2. Even this lower technology panel appears to be either a defective one
or a possibly used one. There appears to be some serious quality issues
with this panel. Occasionally there has been violent electrical
disturbance in the lower half of the panel, earlier mistaken to be caused
by the satellite signal, but now distinctly noticeable as due to some
defect in the panel.
They were asked to replace the panel with an IPS panel as paid for.
I waited for another week and then called Saravanan to remind that I am
still waiting for the replacement of the panel, no action is taken yet.
In the meantime, the issue of signal disturbance on the panel (due to the
possibility that this is a used/defective panel) is making the TV unusable
for most of the time.
Replace the TV immediately, with the components as in the Jazz model bought,
