Broken 360. If yours broke, how long did it take to get it back?

My 360 broke 3 weeks ago, Microsoft told me they had recieved it after 5 days and are "working on it now". How long will they keep it and would they notify me? Sorry for the strange placement of the thread, could not find a proper place for other console talk. they received it last wednesday, 2 days from a week in repairs.

they say it's faster, like 2-3 weeks turn around, but i doubt it since Micro$oft is never right and always slack.

Mine broke too, I was trying to shove it up a horse's ass and it didn't work when the horse shit it out.

X-Box told me the warranty didn't cover fixing the particular problem that the console was full of shit.

Well I had this 7 times back in DEC 06 - MARCH 07.

It maybe different with the UK, ut we used UPS, it usually took around 2-3 weeks, though one time only like 4 days.

Re: Broken 360. If yours broke, how long did it take to get it back?

Gears is by far one of my favourite games ever!

Online was soo good, Annex, Gridlock, those were the days....

Halo 3 was shitty, and was one of the WORST games I had played on.

Your seriously just now noticing this???

But It ususally should only take about a month. Sucks though that they
send you a refurbished 360, instead of a new one. So in another 6 months,
your gonna be sending in another one.

yeah i'll just buy a shitty one to use while they other one is out, because it could be months as hollywood said...and then use the refurbished when i get it back, hope the next gen console is better with this, but i even got the 3 red rings on my old, first xbox, and i didn't know about em until the 360 came out.....man, whatever.......

the 360's failing rate is 22% of all 360's....i'm so surprised it's not more than that, but i'm sure that number will increase each month.
