    MS Refused to Replace Brand New Laptop :(


    I've been a big fan of MS for decades, but am extremely saddened by my last purchase of a gaming laptop (Razer Blade 17) and the service I got.

    My question: How is it possible that I can't get a replacement laptop within a day of receiving a new but faulty one?

    This was such an upsetting experience...

    Terrible packaging

    The laptop box was free floating in larger box. No fragile label/sticker, no packing foam, no bubble wrap, no air pouches - nothing.

    Arrived broken

    Seconds into booting up the system, there was a very noticeable light flicker and static across the screen. There was no visible damage to the hinges, but with the poor packaging, I wouldn't be surprised if the display connection was damaged.

    Refused to replace *NEW* laptop - ONLY REFUND?!

    The three reps I spoke to all said that they will only refund the order. I got it on sale, but now the MS store only carries a worse version (smaller storage for a higher price). How is it possible that they can sell me a brand new laptop but can't replace it within 24 hours of it arriving???

    Conditional refund
    To make matters worse, the instructions with the refund label say that I'll get a refund if it's in good condition. The laptop came faulty in poor packaging! I'm going to be absolutely livid if they don't give me at least a full refund.

    :)

    Controller doesn't work correctly in Dashboard

    No fixes. Had to buy new controller. MS refused to replace.

    My Xbox one freezes & crashes since day one, literally.. Anyone else?

    I refuse to send a basically brand new console to Microsoft only to have a refurbished unit sent out to replace it. If I don't get a brand new console as a replacement, I will not be satisfied. I feel the only remedy is to box it back up and sell it to
    some other unsuspecting fool, just as Microsoft has done to me. The new controller is the only thing I ever liked about the Xbox one anyways, the console is a joke.

    if your console is still under the 1 year warranty then they should not be refusing a replacement, Also you need to be the original owner from brand new of the console for the warranty to stand.

    Have you tried getting a warranty replacement through the online service and warranty centre

    XBOX X Overheating on PuBG

    Onyx,

    Thanks for the response, maybe I was unclear on the post, I have the XBOX X, just from the original launch. I have done everything I can do including contacting MS, little frustrating when it's outside of warranty less than a year and they refuse to
    address the problem that is well known from the first batch. Other say try replacing the thermal paste, MS will fix it I'm sure for $249 , when brand new consoles are $349. The math doesn't add up, you would think being first of the lot paying $500+ for
    the console with a company being a multi-billion dollar business a replacement would not be out of the question.
