+Mystic MVC Posted January 19, 2009 MVC Share Posted January 19, 2009 My brother's 360 got three red rings last week and I called up MS for him last Sunday (the 11th). They said a box would be on its way soon. It has been over a week and he still hasn't seen it. When I got my box sent to me when I was still living at home, it took about three days. I tried to call up MS to complain, but no matter what I choose during the repair process prompts, I never get to speak to a real person. Any ideas? My brother is getting quite anxious and I don't blame him, this is a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rookas Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I just talked to them today (one of my boxes red ringed, again) and I got through to a human eventually. They told me 3-5 days on the box, we'll see how accurate that turns out to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejohnnyq Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 if you have a box, you can now create the shipping label and send it out without waiting on one from them. I just had to do that with mine, i was promised a box, and after 3 weeks, 10 phone calls was told that it is faster to print the label and ship it out. The box must protect the unit correctly, (this was something that they hounded me on), i told them i will use the original box it shipped in, which they replied it might not meet the new standards, which i laughed at them, since i just bought an Elite, and the box is the same as my original 360 box, which was purchased on the day they went on sale.

+Mystic MVC Posted January 20, 2009 Author MVC Share Posted January 20, 2009 It says completed when he checked service.xbox.com but with no mail yesterday (MLK Day), hopefully it will be there when he comes home from school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mystic MVC Posted January 22, 2009 Author MVC Share Posted January 22, 2009 Wow, what a joke. I finally got through to a real person today to find out, they never sent a box in the first place. Being lied to is always just a great experience.... For the second time now, he has a box "on its way" to our house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being lied to is always just a great experience....For the second time now, he has a box "on its way" to our house. When I got my Xbox repaired, I asked for a box. I got off phone, saw a shipping label in my e-mail but was waiting for the box, so I waited but turns out they forgot to put in the application for it. Sorted it all out though when I contacted them again and got the box the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee he won't see the box until the middle of next week though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshBluebird Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 at least you get a box! Unless you specifically ask, in the UK we have to provide our own box (which can be a pain in the backside). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
