Red Ring of Death 4

Yesterday, when I came back from work I found that my new 360 arrived that day. Honestly, I thought that it would be more troublesome than it actually was. And thus the circle is complete.

The only thing that I really hated was the fact that all of my arcade games went back to trials unless I log in to Live (but I currently cannot) and several of my themes are missing as well.

Anyway, those can be bought/played again, the good thing is that I've got my 360 back.

Cheers,

Red Ring of Death 3


I called UPS (01-800-902-9200 in Mexico), my 360 will be picked up tomorrow (02-7) between 9 and 6 at my place, no charge. There's no problem if the doorman receives the package. I will receive my new console, unless anything goes wrong, in 3 to 5 business days, that's next week.

Red Ring of Death 2


Following the events that took place on January 26th, yesterday I arrived at my place and found that the box where I'm supposed to send my 360 to the Repair Center arrived yesterday.

I called a week ago to this number 001-866-745-8312 (Spanish Support) and found out I don't need a ticket or the Warranty. The box arrived about 4 days (labor) after I called them. That's kind of quick. Now I hope to send this box today, but I gotta check first with UPS if anyone but me (i.e. the doorman) can receive the package, or if I do have to receive it, change the address so it arrives at work.

I'll let you know what happens next.

Cheers!

Red Ring of Death

The 'Three Blinking Red Lights', as Microsoft calls them or more colloquially known as the 'Red Ring of Death' is a dreadful experience bound to happen to Xbox 360 owners all over the globe.Today it happened to me but this event not just shadowed my gaming life, but musical and entertainment as well as I used my 360 as a gaming console, a Zune dock and DVD player. Now only I have left is local (no cable) TV, which sucks BIG time.

Now I have to call 001-866-745-8312 which is spanish Technical Support based in the US which will appear on my phone bill as a very expensive long distance call (but I hope not). What do I need to have my 360 replaced and most importantly, how much time will it take? Thing is that I don't recall where the ticket is, I know it's somewhere and the Warranty is no problem as I still have the packaging and it must be there. But where is the FuCKiNG ticket?

On the good side, I will not have problems with the disc tray anymore. I'll let you know how this goes.
