Xbox Repair Questoin

[Alan®]

:cry: Well it finally happened today. I got the 3RLOD :gay: :2up: :crazy: :no: . I called them and told them what was up and they said that it was out of warranty. They are still fixing it for free though :goodjob: . Anyone ever done this before where they send you the box you send the xbox and they give it back a few weeks later? They said up to 3 weeks :doh: :( . This sucks I have nothing to do in my dorm now because of this next week. Oh well.

i looked around before i sent mine in and really its not that hard to fix, icould have done it, but if you open the xbox it voids the warranty which is 3 years for the red light error

[rizzler]

my friend sent his in.. it took over a month and a half...

[ryanh300]

Yeah it takes about 6 to 7 weeks for those money hungry fu*cks to get your box back to you..

[HyPer50]

mine took less than 2 weeks, and it was out of warranty, but the 3 lights brings it back under warranty heh.

[Turbo04]

Took my friend about 4 weeks, but it's free and he found other uses for his time while it was away...:)

[Alan®]

i guess i will have to wait and see.

This sucks I have nothing to do in my dorm now because of this next week. Oh well.

There are plenty of things to do in a dorm other than play Xbox ;)

[Alan®]

yea too bad the girlfriend is only up there twice a week

[antiv6]

damn i got mine back this morning, it took 2 weeks and 4 days since the day i shipped it out. They sent me a different xbox and said they did it to speed up the process. The one they sent me looks new!

[an0therh22]

yeah mine didn't take so long either. just over 2 weeks. and it came with a month of free xbox live. lol

[idriveasloweclipse]

they sent me a new one about a week after I sent my broken one in... It was surprising how fast everything worked out, and I got a free month of xbox live also

[Alan®]

someone just informed of the towel trick i might try it just to see if it works in the mean time. if it gets me through the week that would be awesome

Wrap It Up In A Towel For Turned On For 15Mins Then Unwrap It After 15 Mins

I Have SEEN THIS DONE.
Worth A Shot...They Are Going To Replace It Anyway.

[antiv6]

basically that will work but it willl eventually destroy your xbox, so if they send you the same one back your screwed, but now since they are having to many sent in they just send you a replacement that is new i guess

[jimmycricket]

damnit. I read this thread and not even 3 days ago my xbox got the Red ring of death :(
Guess its back to microsoft then!

[Alan®]

reading is your friend^

[Alan®]

Well I found out today I will be recieving my xbox on friday

[BKgen®]

damn, i've had mine for 2+ years and haven't had any issues. Forza freezes up on me sometimes when choosing a car in online mode, but that's pretty much it. :ninja:
