You ring up microsoft and they ask you to do afew things to see if it can be fixxed without being sent off. But if it needs to be sent off they can send you an e-mail contaning the posting adrees thing or they can send out a currier to pick it up. Here is the number 0800 587 1102 (uk number look up the website for differnet countries) |

Get them all at the same time and have a marathon. Thinking about doing that with the games I'm looking at. Whereabouts in NI are you from? Chance you might have an awesome accent. |

Will do. My one is Soda Dreamer, chances are you'll forget and think who the fuck is this guy when you get your xbox though. Also, is it me or does the online repair service thing not work correctly in the UK? |

PROBATION  Posts: 889 Joined: 16 Aug 2008   | If it's not back in time consider suicide as an alternative. (I joke) User was put on probation for: Letters to the Editor: The Terabyte Tenderloin. (7 days) |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3061 Joined: 13 Aug 2008  | Took about two weeks both times mine broke down. (not RROD strangely enough, which meant the extended warranty didn't apply, I was pissed, as I was only about a week over the original warranty) |
Press Junketeer  Posts: 421 Joined: 15 May 2008  | Ha, my xbox works like a charm. I hope I never have to send it away. I'll be quite upset if I do :( |
Beat Writer  Posts: 203 Joined: 16 Jul 2008 | My 360 has been going strong for two years. I am worried for it. |
Paperboy  Posts: 24 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | If You take your Xbox to the place of purchase and have the reciept they normally will swap it for you. i've done this at game in the uk three times now although they have changed there policy lately and wont let you keep the harddrive although i argued with the guy on the desk telling him he wasn't getting my 160 hours of oblivion saves in the end he saw my point and let me keep the harddrive. why xbox dont endorse this policy i'll never know its a total joke having to go without it for weeks when you guys are still probably paying your live subscription that your not using. get it sorted Bill. |
Anonymous Source  Posts: 2 Joined: 8 Aug 2008  | Last time I sent my Xbox to be repaired I got 1 month free Live so they kinda make up for it. Mine has just broken again the other day, getting picked up on Monday and sent to Germany! Oh and The Iron Ninja, you should have taken it back to where you bought it, you could argue that its not fit for purpose and that the amount of money spent on the item, you would expect to last more than just past it's garrentee(SP?) if not get in contact with trading standards, though not sure if this is applicable to you as it's a British loophole. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 201 Joined: 4 Jul 2008 | when my 360 broke it took 3 long months befor I finaly got it back. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 111 Joined: 28 Sep 2008 | Did I happen to buy the only good first gen 360? |

Mine has been faithful and not had a single problem for two and a half years. Touch wood *touches some wood* (not that kind of wood!). |
Anonymous Source  Posts: 7 Joined: 10 Oct 2008 | I live in canada and mine broke once, and it only took one week. Now it wont sense wireless controllers or headsets, though it does run normally. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2034 Joined: 16 May 2008 |
If I get my Xbox back and it won't detect wireless controllers, I will be yelling at some asian telephone guy at Microsoft's phone answering service in Dubai SOOOO fucking fast, lol |

Give it time... all good things must come to an end. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1019 Joined: 9 Jul 2008 | I have no idea for where you live. For me, living in New York, it takes a month to get to Texas, fixed, and back. But I assume things will be quicker for you. Not so much ground to cover. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 1621 Joined: 6 Jun 2008 |
It really doesn't matter where you live too much, I live in Texas and mine was sent to Washington. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3755 Joined: 14 Jan 2008  | Really depends. I have sent mine off a good few times, sometimes it was back in a week or so. But I had to wait over a month at one point. If you're lucky it should be back in time, but I wouldn't put money on it. |

My Xbox has just been sent off to get fixed today because of hardware problems. I was just wandering how long it will take for it to get back to me and will it be in time for fable 2, fallout 3 and gears of war 2, my three must wanded games of this year?
