Shoddy quality control, they obviously are not tested very thoroughly.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they are being repaired as fast as they are being sent in due to a large volume of Scorpio editions going faulty.

I remember when my third died I did give it a damn good slap on the top of the case... It did make me feel better!

My tracking still says parcel details received, so looks like UPS still needs to pick it up, is yours with UPS?

I dealt straight with Argos who were fine about exchanging tbh. I haven't used this one much yet... Too damn scared incase it dies lol!

So a console 'feeling' more premium does not make it better built then!

Yep.

Touch wood, mine has been OK so far. That said, it hasn't had much use really. Maybe 60-70 hours max. Fingers crossed I have a good one.

My Scorpio seems ok, it just keeps forgetting my wifi details and makes me set it up again every time i put it on.

Yep.

Hey guys, can someone help me please who has done an advanced exchange, I have got the replacement today but I have no clear instructions on how I send the faulty console back to MS.

I have packaged faulty console up and have the shipping label but where do I send my console? , is it a case of going to a local UPS drop off location, I have newsagents up the road that I can use?
Pretty unclear what Im meant to do.

Thanks

Yep that's what I did and I received an email today stating that Ms had received my faulty console.

Thanks for the quick response, I will do that then. The second part of the label is like a receipt, do I need to take that along to the drop off location?

Soulja · 19 Jan 2018 at 11:09

No, that's for you to keep and it has a tracking number on there.

Just setting up my replacement, it gets a signal, so my last one was definitely faulty. I do believe my replacement is a refurb as the sticker on the back says service date instead of manufacture date, Im not fussed as the console is in perfect condition, Its quite, but I do still need to test the fans when gaming.

Same thing mine says. Should check the serials against our old consoles to see if we have been given one anothers broken boxes.
