So you own an xbox 360 and its within warranty (1 year) ... suppose your wireless controller has just broken. :shock:
Fear not! :-)
Call Xbox tech support: 08005871102 (option 1 then 3)
Tell them that your controller is broken and that you have tried everything
They will ask for your 360 serial number
then they will send you a brand new FREE replacement control without any proof of your broken item!
If you feel inclined you could also do this with your other broken accessories (eg play & charge kit).
Did it this morning and its on the way, lots of other poor folks with broken controls are also receiving theirs.
Two pirate thumbs up to MS for a great service!
Suppose its easier than going to the shop and stealing one. :ptu:
lol very very naughty id never do such a thing. :roll:

I would try it on every other week & flood the ebay market :-D
cheeky buggers you lot :lol:
clearly though microsoft have decided it is cheaper to simply send out a new one than employ people to keep track of/test faulty ones etc.. obviously assuming that people who phone up are mostly genuine
could prove expensive for them if this catches on though - might cause them to change their policy which could cause them to employ some techie people to check the controllers and more customer service bods to deal with the calls - in fact by stealing from microsoft you could also be helping to create a job for someone
