Macbook pro (Mid 2012 15) with video issues. Apple has so far been very uncooperative


i have been facing video issues macbook since first got it. started off random flicker across whole screen lasted fraction of second, infrequently.

frequent problem complete system hang fixed forced shutdown. have tried leaving on 2 hours no avail (unsaved documents..). identify instantly, screen , apple logo on remains lit after closing lid. along this, have total crash, black screen error message along lines of ‘your laptop has shut down unexpectedly’.

, have reached final stage, intermittent black screen has lasted long 4 days. took laptop genius bar, being told no longer covered warranty , have dish £400 replace screen. respectfully declined , later found out [this](https://www.apple.com/uk/support/macbookpro-videoissues/) issue, laptop falls under.

apple next day, same genius , know program after mention it.. run vst test laptop passes. tell me again not covered warranty or program laptop didn't fail vst test.

of symptoms of laptop fall program, why not eligible?

research shows me problem due lead free soldering used in motherboard , logic units.

student no money, exams in 5 weeks broken laptop , expect me pay on £400 fix fault. if of have dealt or have advice, mean world me.
 

from i've read on here , other forums, if macbook pro somehow passes vst still exhibits issue, have show genius happening. recording video (from phone) , showing them symptoms in action it. other times, has happening in front of them.

although sucks , shouldn't have doing this, may have camp out in apple store 1 day mac whatever gets mbp going nuts, , show them. if still won't you, try apple store.
