hats off to microsoft

Right before Thanksgiving, my XBOX died from the red ring of death. I contacted them and then sent my xbox return box to me. Well, less than a week and a half later a new (or refurbished who knows) XBOX arrived at my door.

Thats fantastic service.

no more than 8 days from notification to receiving a replacement XBOX is fantastic service.

Now, I will admit that the original 360 is crap, but they are making up for it..

I would think if it's refurbished it would have to say so somewhere around the area where the serial number is.

Yeah, I doubt it's an older refurbished system. That would only create more headaches for them by having to replace the systems over and over again. It's probably a new model.

Microsoft dropped the ball huge on the hardware out the gate, but they've done everything possible to fix the mistake and I think they've done pretty good given the situation. This could've been catastrophic for them, but their service has really saved it.

Their repair center is in texas so the turnaround time will be faster. They probably already have a new/refurbished system waiting to be shipped once they got your xbox. That's still great news for everyone.

Kitty I’m glad you have got your replaced mate

I think my 360 is on the way out, it's starting to freeze when I’m playing game

Does anyone know if this is the beginning of the end?

I was playing Halo with Jstorm when his went out he said it would freeze and turn off. Mine will freeze every now and then and say it can't read the disc.
