Jelle1880 649 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Don't do it in those shops, they will only break the warranty seal and mess it up even more. RROD is free to fix, just call them and they will tell you what to do (normally they ask you if the cables are plugged in ok, even if you're not sure just tell them that they are ok). Then they send you a file with UPS stickers and instructions to send it to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBLUE72 0 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Do they send you a box to your house ? , i have the shipping label and the email do i get the box > order a pick up time > and they collect ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
excoriate 0 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Do they send you a box to your house ? , i have the shipping label and the email do i get the box > order a pick up time > and they collect ? No, they send you the box through email attachment, just print it onto cardboard. Don't double side print or you'll get box on the inside of the box and not just the outside.

excoriate 0 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Ack, sorry to be sarky. Get a box, pack it as carefully and tightly as you can with stuff to absorb shock from being dropped. Stick your label on. Drive up to the nearest UPS depot to get it away sooner, or ask them to collect (whenever it suits them, regardless of your set time pick up!) And hope it comes back within 2-3 weeks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyCR1 1,566 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Mate just phone this number 0800 587 1102 Then they tell you everything you have to do, a guy in a van then comes within two days and collects it. A few weeks later he returns it to your door, fixed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
