This is really taking the piss; I finished my conversation with customer support, who said they were going to email me some labels, and you know what the last thing they said was?

"Have a great day"

**** off.

:rofl:

Would suck for the people who don't have printers.

They really suck don't they, old M$ customer service are ****ers.. as you have found out now.

Do you have to pay the postage costs?

4-6 weeks without a 360, :frown: That really bites :eek:

Actually, apart from that it wasn't too bad. Although he struggled with his English (and it didn't help that I'm colour blind), he did explain that if I don't have a printer he could post the labels to me.

Basically, he's emailing me the pre-paid postage labels and courier details; all I have to do is put the console in a box, ring up the courier and arrange for them to collect it.

Thank GOD for three year warranties :biggrin:


And yeah, I'm extra gutted cos these were the last three weeks I was gonna use the 360 before leaving it behind when I left for uni, now I don't even get to play it before I go :frown:
:frown:

I don't feel your pain (yet), but not being able to play it before uni, the days will go so slow! :eek:

They not even sending you a box? If not, the cheek of them... :mad:

Anyway, it;s free, can't really complain there.

It will be back before you know it :wink:

Hahahaha I seriously hope you're right!

The funny thing is, I was thinking to myself only a month ago, "Hmmm, I bought this console within three months of its launch, one of the earlier problematic ones, and it STILL works beautifully."

Damn.
Jinxed... :frown:

All you need now is good luck, they aren't known for their quickness :frown:

If you're lucky, you might get a brand new one back :biggrin:

Checked my Bioshock CD today and noticed it has a few scratches on it.

My lovely xbox has been scratching my disks. :smile:

I signed up for the CoD4 beta but I don't know if they will send me one - first come first serve. Do I have to be online or something? :s-smilie:

No you don't, I was on holiday when they sent me my token and I got on fine when I got back.

If you got the ring of death like I did, why send it back to m$, when you could just return it to the retailer? I took mine into GAME the day it happened, and got it swapped over and all sorted in 5 minutes.

I got mine 18 months ago from HMV in Gatwick, so doubt they'd be willing to do anything at my local branch

Yeah, that does work, to some extent, but I don't know if they'll only allow it within a year of purchase. The good thing is, you don't even have to return it to the store you got it from.

It should ok up to a couple of years, just research the sales & goods act and quote it.

Yeah I bought mine in Kent but got it swapped over in Surrey. Service was good.
