do you have 360 ? basically a lot of 360's have been hit by hardware failures which is displayed by the green ring around the 360's power button glowing red rather than green and has been nicknamed the ring of death if you look on a 360 dying thread you'll probably see the term used.
 
nah i was outside warranty and after much argument on phone they said they'd said a refurbed one for 70 quid they'd knock 15 pound of for refurbed replacement thats bound to die again. so said sod it i'll wait and save money till revised 360 comes out .

you won't know for a long time mine lasted a year before dying and died just outside warranty so yours might be fine newer ones apparently are slightly better but i would suggest going for extended warranty.

Hmm. can you buy extended warranty afterwards?
 
I agree with jumpers... just because you didn't get any joy, don't leave it at that. Push for a replacement from the retailer. If it's only just outside the warranty then it's only just over a year old, which I'd consider to be an insufficient amount of time for a console to last. The Sale of Goods Act is on your side with this one.
 
yeah might have a look only prob is lost receipt and paid in cash so taking to store no good i'l just keep trying anyway brought ps2 and bought ff12 + bully so play that tonight .

Nothing ventured nothing gained, you have already succumbed to the fact you are 360less. If with a bit of effort of writing a letter, couple of phone calls you get a new one, then its a wee bonus :D
Legally though you don't need a receipt, cos legally they don't need to give you one. But i dunno how you can prove you bought it though.
 
And even if that doesn't work, why not take the offer of replacing with a refurb model for £70 and then flogging it on an auction site... you'd get more than £70 so at least you'd not lose anything (which is what will happen if you just bin your current one and replace it when the newer models are released).
