Looking for feedback on my issue with the loose slot for mic adapter in controller

Since it's most likely not in warranty, I would look up videos or online for help. I'm sure there's something out there that shows how to fix it yourself, otherwise I would get a new controller. They're your only options I'm afraid.

Sorry to hear it. Sometimes my mic kicks out too but that is due to the adapter coming a little loose. Please ensure the adapter is connected firmly to the controller.

Looks like there is a slot at the bottom of the controller where the mic can plug into

The problem lies within the hardware itself, the controller and headset adapter lose connection as the connecting chip in the controller works loose. I have fixed mine my several times by pushing up the slot inside the controller.

Very very poor design, and shoddy workmanship, the day one controllers whilst well designed are cheap!

My mic usually has the same problem, but my Xbox Controller's mic port is causing the problem. Either the controller mic port could be their issue, the mic plug-in cord, or the mic in general. Feedback has also had issues with constant screeches.
