Stuck Pixel or Dead subpixel?

Phi

Hey guys I bought a new Monitor (BenQ 2411) this month (09.11.2014)
I recently discovered a dead/stuck pixel on my screen

It seems to be Purple on white, black on green and invisible on red blue and black
So is it possible to revive it with a tool like DPT or am I just screwed?

just RMA it, dont try to fix it yourself

BenQ wont rma monitors unless you have 5 or more or something stupid like that. I have 2 dead pixels and they just wouldn't rma it.

 

Phi you seem to have a stuck pixel. press on it with your finger and there is other ways. Due to it being stuck not dead you have a chance of fixing it but its like 50/50. Take it to the store and see if they will replace it, benq wont do anything.

Well actually in my country you can return it within 14 days but these 14 days already passed.
EDIT: Ordered it together with my PC so I cant just bringt it to the store.
Pressing wont do anything I'll try it with JScreenFix.. hope it works
I am sure they'll take a look at it beforehand so telling a lie shouldnt be an option lol.

Found something out which is actually really weird

I took a closer look at it and it seems like the Pixel turns green on black background
Is purple on white
Invisible on red and blue
is black on green

Which means that my green subpixel seems to get activated when it should not (Black background)
And turns off when it should (Green Background+White)

Does that mean that it is stuck or did they just fucked up while building?
