    Xbox one has bricked and terrible customer service


    Hi, about 2 weeks ago my xbox decided to start freezing on a black screen just after the green load up screen. I contacted MS support and was told to do a number of things which didn't help, I was left with being told I had to go and buy a usb stick to try
    the offline update

    So I got a usb and downloaded the update, set it to install earlier. Went out and came back to my xbox being off. Turned it on and now it gets stuck on the green load screen

    So I tried installing the update again and nd now it is froze on the update install screen. What do I do now ad I'm not supposed to turn it off ? It's been stuck for over 2 hours

    I have been disconnected by MS support 4 times now, twice without talking to anyone and twice after the person has logged in to chat they have read my complaint and disconnected me. I am furious

    Added to the fact that I contacted MS support the other week after MGS5 glitch left me with an impossible achievement, I followed their advice of deleting and reinstalling MGS5 and now that won't install either so I have a completely useless game and £400
    Microsoft paperweight

    Any ideas ?

    :)

    Customer service terrible

    At the moment i have been over a month without a working console.

    I got a day one console that worked fine for the first few months. Then in February noticed the fan was making a weird ticking noise like something was catching.

    Put in a repair request and sent it off. Got it "repaired" and sent back about a week or so later. It was still exactly the same. So i got onto customer support and told them that i wasnt happy because theyd done nothing. The CS woman arranged for me to
    have a replacement console sent.

    This new one was even worse. The hard drive sounds broken. A very loud ticking, scratchinng noise that doesnt go away when you put a game on. It also started making my tv do weird noises even while muted.

    So i go on live chat again to explain whats wrong. I am told because it is my 3rd repair request it has been escalated to the advocacy team who will contact me by phone or email within 72 hours. I wait a week and havent had any contact. So i contact them
    again mid-week to be told "by Friday".

    Friday comes and goes and still no contact so i go on live chat again and explain whats been going on. This time the guy starts a new service request, apparently writes everything down for documentation and tells me ill receive contact within 5 days.

    Again the 5 days pass and still nothing. So i go on chat again and tell them whats going on and that im getting pretty sick of it now. I wouldnt care if they said it was going to take me a week or month to get it sorted, just so long as they tell me something.
    He tells me the team know about my request and that he will personally chase it up for me and contact me by phone in 24-48 hours.

    No prizes for guessing i havent heard anything still Xbox one has bricked and terrible customer service :( I am seriously at my wits end. Even though ive bought games for it i think at this point id rather send the rest of the console back and get a refund Xbox one has bricked and terrible customer service :(

    Customer service terrible

    Persistence is the only way. Just be glad it wasnt your controller i sent my Day One controller in back in January and they said they never got it. As it turns out they did have it. they just never filled the order due the manufacture not creating any extra
    stock of the item they couldnt fill my order. This is not what they told me they said they didnt get it but after Tons of calls and Reporting it and Escalating it i got no responses. Finnally i Demanded to know what the heck was happening with some poor guy
    who just happened to be the straw that broke the camels back. He then had to break protocol and Get a Email to his boss who contacted Tier 3 Boss who then Emailed me assuring me they did have my controller and that they were going to send me a new one as soon
    as tehy possible could.

    Terrible Customer Service!!!!!!!!!

    There is a sticky thread in both enforcement forums telling you they are no longer in use.

    They probably should be locked down but aren't for some reason.

    At least you now know this for the future.

    Terrible customer service

    So when you requested the callback and spoke with the Microsoft agent, what advice did they give you?

    Terrible customer service

    Support are nothing to do with xbox live enforcement which is why they can't help.

    You were warned,your warning is the ToU/CoC that you agreed to when you started your account.

    You will not get a refund for anything i'm afraid & the rules are exactly the same on PSN although you do not get as many 2nd chances there.

    As long as your console is set to offline mode you can still play the majority of games although you obviously can't play online multiplayer.

    As the enforcement team do not use the forums you would need to look on the enforcement site to see why you were suspended & to file for a case review if eligible
