Ive read about one broken console, and the only people I have seen complain about controllers are a few in here. No one I know have had a single problem.

One things for sure, the One pad is built worse than the 360 pad and is now the sick dog next to the solid feel of the DS4.
Shame, as functionally it still edges it.

Can someone with an Xbox One do me a favour and tell me what language is detailed on the serial number/product ID sticker on the bottom of the console.
Specifically the language for the contains & Cofetel id. Mine is in Spanish.

Yeah looks like I have bit of spanish on mine also, or Italian (not sure what is it). Other stuff is "Made in China" and "Hello from Seattle" with Redmond, WA as the MS address.
It's a shame as we're paying so much for the consoles. I do think that MS's main problems are from the controller and headset. The controller isn't great for quality (the lip in the analog stick annoys me, along with the questionable build), and the headset feels like it will break in about 20 seconds of wearing it.
Mine is "consumo de energia" which Google says is Portuguese.
Anyone know the support centre number?
I was given a US number by the support people and told it was the UK number, despite it being wrong.
Edit: NVM, found it on the MS site.
2-3 working days for a replacement console, they were very helpful.

Are the pads covered by MS Warranty direct ??
I'm on my third pad but Game will not replace it now because it technically works and they can't really find a "fault" with it.. the problem is (and has been with the others) that the stick does not recentre properly, it will spring back into an "about" centre position but you need to actually centre it manually. It's difficult to explain but centred is actually loose and the stick can rock back and forth which means if you were to push forward on the stick it has to travel a distance before hitting any resistance, thus making the dead-zone big and difficult to judge as the loose bit does nothing at all, that and you can feel an uneven movement when using it.
I'm not sure what to do next, if this is honestly the quality of the pads and considered an acceptable quality then I'm at loss because it is rubbish.

You can actually request a free call from the MS site.
I would insist GAME replace it. It's not your fault you've had 3 replacements if they aren't fit for purpose they aren't fit for purpose. I wouldn't take no for an answer.
But to answer yes accessories are covered by MS however you have to pay the postage cost back to MS and they say turnaround can be up to 3 weeks.
Try some different batteries. I noticed the rumble stops working when your batteries start to run low.
Thanks for that suggestion it worked
so when the batteries get low in the pad it disables the rumble effect 
didn't do that on the old pad

I remember the rumble disappearing when the batteries got low, when I had a 360.
this whole time i plugged my xbox one directly into the monitor. Tonight I bought a THX certified £1200 pioneer receiver and was shocked at how fuzzy letterso n the dashboard are now totally noiseless............I literally had no idea a video processor could improve my picture with such a great monitor! I think the processor is doing the scaling now instead of my dell or something.
have now tried it A/B testing and the picture has fuzz around letters without the amp!
