My 50 inch plasma TV went out last week. It's a Panasonic that I bought April 17, 2012. It's not top of the line, but it cost me a thousand dollars and that's a significant amount for me and mine. Anywho, I contacted Panasonic customer service and went through the whole warranty process. They informed me that it would be a week before they could get someone out to look at it. The date didn't work for me, and they said I would have to call and set the service up myself. Okay...thanks for nothing. I call, they come get it that day and say they anticipate a week. They order the needed part. The service company calls this morning and says they were just informed by Panasonic the part is backordered and won't ship for three weeks. Back on the phone with Panasonic...
Panasonic says that I should just be patient with them. I say I shouldn't have to wait for over a month to have a TV on my wall when it is less than a year old and cost me $1,000. I want a replacement or my money back. They say no dice. We are locked in battle at the moment.
What says the hive: Am I being unreasonable or is Panasonic being the douche?
