    I just got off the phone with them and managed to get free repair .

    He said no at first but I was a little firmer and he went away to consult the manager, he came back and said that as a gesture of good will he would give me free repair! Only took about 10 minuets as well so overall I'm pleased with the service. All I have to do is pack it in a box and the they do the rest. Kudos for Microsoft in my book (apart from the xbox breaking in the first place )

    Thanks for all your comments btw, I think they helped in the phone call. If I hadn't managed to get free repairs I was seriously considering the hack jobs you lot have been telling me about

    At least with Microsoft’s new warranty thing if yours is out of warranty atm, they give you a 'years repair warranty' if you chose to repair it with them.

    Im so busy at the moment though. Dont know when I'll have time to sort this out
    Might just give my mate at game a ring, he'll probably sort me out in 10 mins there and then.
