My LG OLED 55C7V has burn in

I think you mean CRT not LCD for ‘back in the day’. LCD does not get ‘burn in’. 🙂

But LED appears to do so. oh dear me. So you agreeing ? that if someone has burn out on there newish tv. they should also get sep insurance against burn or am i wrong ? My word you pay over £1000 for a TV the TV gets a burnout and you cannot claim on warrnaty. So what is the point of buying an extended warranty now ??

LED (Not be confused with OLED) is just for the backlight of an LCD TV so no burn in occurs.

LCD and LED screens can also experience image burn, though the image burn process can take longer to develop into a permanent issue. In addition, LCD and LED screens suffer from another issue, known as image retention (also known as image persistence or an LCD shadow).

Not in ‘normal use’.

so makes me a little worried why anyone would spend £1000 on a TV knowing full well this could happen and what is worse there warranty is not covered . pointless having a warranty is it not . if it does not include burning issues

This has been the case even with plasma TVs. Of note, I have a plasma TV since 7 years and the TV itself is 8 years old. No burn in or image retention.

...which begs the obvious question.
Assuming there can actually be 'abnormal use'.....what is that supposed to be?
