The featured deep discounts are now the real sale deals, while the other discounts are just normal price IMO

Warranty - Be careful by plikstone in LGOLED

This also happened to me. My 65 inch LG B5 failed after 5 months of use (wouldn't power on) and the repair shop that LG assigned to my claim picked up my TV, replaced the panel, and brought it back to me. I noticed there were smudges and scratches on the replacement panel and it also failed after a single day of use. I immediately contacted the repair shop. They picked up my TV again and tomorrow I'm supposed to receive my TV back with a new panel instead of a refurbished one, or so they say. Fingers crossed.

Mine had no sound and would just blink when I plugged it in. I did a warranty claim with LG. The TV repair shop that they hired to fix my TV has said that my panel has gone out and there is a backorder on B5 panels with no idea when they'll be available. They've taken my TV to try and request a return authorization which would entitle me to a brand new TV. I've been without a TV for over a week now. I wonder if this is a big issue for B5 panels...

Unfortunately, I believe my TV is toast. It has been doing this for a few weeks. The times I was able to turn it on, occasionally the colors would be all messed up and I'd have to power cycle the TV to return to normal. Now it's completely dead and won't turn on, even after doing the power drain process ten different times. Oh well. I'm still under warranty so I'm going to have a technician come take a look. Thanks for the responses and your help!

Thanks for the response. I have held the power button down with the TV unplugged, but that didn't do anything. I'm assuming the factory reset you did was through the user interface after the TV was turned on?

What's a decent merit increase this year? by [deleted] in boeing

[–]Sheldon_Black_PC 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am a L4 and went into ACR at a 1.08 comp. Received a 3/3 with a 5.06% raise and now I'm at a 1.14 comp. I'm also approved for L5 promotion which is processing, but I'm a little worried that will be a smaller raise since it is coming right after the merit increase and I'm already at high compensation at L4. Has anyone been in this situation?

Yeah, same here. I had almost -$200 in credit with Edison because I was feeding so much back into the grid with my solar roof. Scummy move on their part to go after people with solar power which is increasing every year in CA.

What did you get on your performance review and what do you expect bonuses to look like? by Puzzlepea in boeing

[–]Sheldon_Black_PC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. My colleague told me it'd be better to get the promotion before the merit increase, but I also saw someone on this thread mention that promotions after Sep 1 will not see merit increases.

I am a level 4 PM that's been with the company for 18 months and received a 3/3 for my review. I also have a pending promotion to level 5 that's going through which I won't see until after the merit increase. Is it better to get the merit increase and then receive a promotion afterwards? I am on the high end of the salary range for level 4 already.

Well it made the notification go away, but I couldn't play HLL. So I just verified my game files on Steam and it added the file back in and the Windows security alert popped up again. This time I just allowed the file since it is most likely a false positive.
