Be sure to cook him a nice, big greasy fry up, get the drill out and do a spot of noisy DIY and play some loud music when he finally surfaces, he'll love you all the more for it

I took 2 Xbox 360's to UPS on 29th Oct and both were delivered the next day. Haven't heard anything since then.

I was told there is currently a 15 day turnaround, I assume it is 15 working days

I'm still waiting for mine....

I'm now on the 2nd week and checked online - it says returned unit to customer? - dunno if its coming from the other side of the world or what?

I thought it would all be done inside a week, or are there thousands going wrong weekly?

COD 4 still in packaging

Let me know how you get on please.

My Sons came back yesterday and I have started a new thread because he is getting this:

Tried to recover gamer tag from Xbox.com and message came up saying "cannot save to selected storage device" "please make sure hardrive is inserted correctly and there is enough free space"

Sent our old 360 to be repaired last week. It had the RROD. We are now using our new 360 approx 4 months old and it's started freezing before playing a game,turn it off and then we get the RROD. So now both my son's have no xbox, life just is not going to be worth living over the next few weeks.hope it comes back soon. My mate purchased a new xbox elite from play.com and played it for 2 hrs and yes you guessed it RROD and had to go back. Is this a record

Sorry to confuse you, was typing on hubbies login earlier, now on my own

Yes my son tested it for a few hours and all seems ok at the moment.
I will let you know if we get anymore problems and see what happens with the other one when it comes back.

You have no idea what my Son has gone through with this. His mate has managed to save all his stuff, how I do not know. We shall know tomorrow when he collects whatever it is he has to collect and tries to install again. This is driving me bonkers. How much was it again
