    Others will answer this better mate but I have seen people on here get their modded FW consoles and no warranty sticker consoles get repaired no problem so send it back!

    One simple answer, I'd call them and try your luck mate, you have nothing to loose and a new or fixed console to gain ;-)

    My 360 was banned from live, and fitted with a dual mod-switch. I snapped the swith (and on/off light) from the side of the box, leaving 2 great dirty big holes in the side, shoved the wires that were left hanging into the box as far as I could and sent it back to MS.

    Got an email this morning saying my repaired 360 was on its way back to me.. result!

    Get it sent back!

    Yeah, send it back, I haven't heard of them refusing to repair one yet.

    If it is within the 1 yr warranty, then yes.

    That is what happened to mine (got a Benq back though).

    seriously, we should make a sticky about this!! because there's a new thread about this subject every day or so!

    as said about 100+ times, send it back! its a free call, free collection, and free return delivery! the worst that can happen is that it will come back as is! the best that can happen is that they will replace it for you, and give you a freebie!!

    Within 1 yr for anything other than 3 RL or within 3 yr for RL - Otherwise you will be charged for repairs.

    has anyone just said that they have 3RL when they dont? cos it seems like they dont even test 'em (otherwise tampered ones wouldn't get replaced, but they do!)!
