    Damaged Xbox


    About a month ago I sent my Xbox One in for repairs because it was having disk drive problems. I sent my Xbox in looking brand new and I purposely did not want to do the advanced exchange because I wanted mine back because it was in mint condition. Three
    weeks after sending it in I finally received it back. When I opened the box it came in and took out the console, the whole Xbox was covered in scratches! I called Xbox support for the first time and a man named Jeff said he would escalate the problem and
    come up with a solution so I did not have to send my Xbox in again. I received an email from him the next day and he asked for pictures of the Xbox, a time to call me, and a phone number. I responded 4 times with those requests and didn't receive anything
    back, so I decided to call. I was on the phone and on hold for about 3.5 hours last night. The first operator could not help me so she sent me to a "supervisor". I told the supervisor the problem and all she kept saying is that the only solution is to send
    me a refurbished console, which I told them countless times that I didn't want. If I wanted a refurbished console I would have done the advanced exchange. Who knows if a refurbished console would look any better than the one I received back, or have problems
    in the future. I kept asking for a different solution and all she kept saying was "unfortunately this is your only option." It was like I was talking to a robot. I asked to talk to a different supervisor and she said that that's not possible if I wanted to
    talk to a different supervisor I would have to hang up and called again and wait on hold again. I asked her what the point of sending pictures was and escalating the problem if all they were going to tell me is that they are going to send me a refurbished
    Xbox. I called back and talked to another supervisor to find out that my problem was never escalated like the last 3 people told me it was and now I have to wait another 3-5 days for "tier 3" people to come up with a solution. The second supervisor at least
    had a conversation with me even though she raised her voice at me a lot and told me to "calm down" when she was looking into my case. I wasn't even raising my voice. I am very disappointed with the customer service and offended about how I was treated especially
    because of how loyal I have been to this brand from day one of the original Xbox. Microsoft should take ownership of damaging my console and not treat me like I'm a little kid. I hope escalating the problem actually works and they come up with a solution
    and not tell me that I only have one option when it was their fault that my Xbox got severely damaged.

    :)

    Xbox Damaged?

    Hi there,

    please try the manual power cycle steps like mentioned on the following link, be sure to wait at least 60 seconds before powering on again:
    http://support.xbox.com/en-us/xbox-one/console/power-cycle-console

    Also run a network test on the console to see if everything is up and running.

    Let us know the resultscycle

    Only you can answer that question. Did it damage it? Is it still working okay? Did it sustain any physical damage (i.e. Scratches, Dents, Breaks, etc...) ?

    Lol,though this rumour had died.

    Microsoft don't give away damaged xbox's.

    If you want a new one you will have to buy one.

    Xbox damage?

    Hey, so I may need a little help. Here's the problem. So when I plug in the xbox the power brick flashes white and orange for a bit, then when I turn it on it turns off after 5 seconds. Now this can't be the power source as my brother's xbox works
    fine with the exact same set up. It may have been water damage and if so I had already dried it and it's been waiting for about a month and drying up like people have said but it still does the same. I honestly have no idea what to do.
    I had the same problem but not water damage it was with too much dust tried removing but still didn't work.

    I had a friend buy X1 AC Adapter power cord just today and that solved my problem with turning the power back on my Xbox One. It cost me $45.19 that's tax included, Canadian.

    So happy, so good luck I hope this helps.

    Xbox damage?

    Hi KittyBeatrix,

    sorry to hear. You can try
    "Power Troubleshooter"
    it may helps but I think you have to send your console to a repair center.

    Xbox damage?

    Hello KittyBeatrix,

    Thank you for posting on Xbox Forums. In regards to this issue, we understand that you have tried troubleshooting the issue but have you tried the steps in this support article for
    Xbox One Power Supply issue? If not, I would suggest trying the steps here to determine if it is definitely not the Power Supply
    unit that is having the issue. If it is not the Power Supply Unit then there will be an issue with the console that will need to be resolved. More than likely the console might need to be repaired, however, because there's been water damage the repair center
    will not service the console.

    If you have any other questions please feel free to reply back letting us know. Thank you again for posting on Xbox Forums.
