Guest Jordan Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Okay, so i rang XBOX Support (and got onto some really incomprehensible guy called Claude) and i said i RROD and then they said call back tomorrow?! And i can't register the console online? What?
spirited away Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Well if I say that it shows 3 RR, will they check at all? Also, stupid question, but where do I find the serial number for my X360?
Gizmo Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Never before have so many awesome games been mentioned in one sentence! I almost added in Bioshock but that was August iirc so not really around the right timeframe.
spirited away Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 on the back Which is it though? It doesn't say "serial number" anywhere - loads of Kanji.
Ganepark32 Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 So my 360 is supposed to be delivered back to me tomorrow at some point. Well, from looking at the data from the tracking info, it's still sitting in Frankfurt and it says the last update was at 3:58pm ET. ET means Eastern Time right? Argh........ I just want the bloody thing back now. It's been a hassle the whole time it's been out for repair.
Eddage Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Well if I say that it shows 3 RR, will they check at all? I told them mine RROD'd when it was just the DVD drive that was fucked, still got it repaired for free, even though it was over a year old. I don't think they bother checking.
Daft Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 nice. I'll send you a FR today. Just added you...I think. Sorry it took me so long. Better late than never!
Guest Stefkov Posted October 27, 2008 Posted October 27, 2008 Which is it though? It doesn't say "serial number" anywhere - loads of Kanji. On the back of mine there are 3 lines of stuff above the bar code. The Serial Number is the middle one. But mines old so it might be different.
Letty Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Lmao, Ive been on the phone to xbox support for 10 mins, and so far its been: *cheesy music* 'please hold the line, thanks for waiting' *cheesy music* 'please hold the line, thanks for waiting' *cheesy music*
RoadKill Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Lmao, Ive been on the phone to xbox support for 10 mins, and so far its been: *cheesy music* 'please hold the line, thanks for waiting' *cheesy music* 'please hold the line, thanks for waiting' *cheesy music* Time to RAGE! My 360 RRoD'd once and they dealt with it quickly. I have since strapped fans to the side of my xbox in a haphazard fashion in an attempt to ensure it does not happen again. I also got the exact same Xbox back, which I'm glad about

Sheikah Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 I also got the exact same Xbox back, which I'm glad about If my Xbox got the RROD I certainly wouldn't want the same one back. :p
Guest Jordan Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 You get the same shell and they replace the faulty components. Anyone thinking they're going to get a brand new XBOX is a complete idiot.
spirited away Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Ok, so I requested repair on the website, and it says my warranty is up...now what?
Guest Jordan Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Ring them, say it RROD. On the website they only take into account your current warrenty RROD warrenty is 3 years.
spirited away Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Ring them, say it RROD. On the website they only take into account your current warrenty RROD warrenty is 3 years. Ah, I thought you could register RROD consoles as well...damn I hate customer support...
The fish Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 You get the same shell and they replace the faulty components. Anyone thinking they're going to get a brand new XBOX is a complete idiot. I actually got a brand new Xbox, they sent me a letter with it saying so, but it wasn't clear why. It appears they couldn't fix it.
RoadKill Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 If my Xbox got the RROD I certainly wouldn't want the same one back. :p You would, because if you get a different one you can lose the licences for all your Xbox live downloaded content as far as I'm aware
spirited away Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 Just wondering; how long did it take you guys to get a repaired 360, from the date the courier picked it up?
S.C.G Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 From pick-up it takes about 1.5 - 2 weeks generally...
Bren Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 You would, because if you get a different one you can lose the licences for all your Xbox live downloaded content as far as I'm aware Arnt they stored to your gamercard on MS's servers? When i got me elite, all my dlc was re-downloaded with ease
spirited away Posted October 28, 2008 Posted October 28, 2008 From pick-up it takes about 1.5 - 2 weeks generally... Hmm, will be eagerly awaiting the return then - with Fable 2 and Gears in hand.
