Just checking Do it with the supermarkets if you have to, the staff there are far less likely to check things as they dont know what they're looking at.

Same position as me dude. When it arrived DOA the phone company didnt want to know (despite it being their responsibility), but MS sorted it out no worries. Had it back in about 5/6 working days.

Mine's still going ok......I've had it since last October so it's not as old as yours, just seems to be the only one that's lasted so far
Really don't want it to die, I'd be crap at arguing about it in Gamestation

Mine was from last November according to the receipt. I haven't looked at a manufacture date though.

Off to Game on Saturday then. Let's hope they don't take the faceplate off

Oh, what do I do with my save games and stuff? Could I swap the HD in the shop?

when you change it at GAME they'll just swap the unit. I did that with mine, just call your store and ask to speak to the Manager, just arrange it with him making sure they have them in stock. It should be no problem at all

The guy never even checked mine, just swapped them over.

Oh, IF they do take a look at the warranty sticker, do you reckon I could bribe them with signing up to the Game reward card (bonus for them) and maybe buy something?

My only worry is that they changed their procedures after all the XBL bannings.
