There have been a lot of various accounts regarding the length of time it takes to get your console to Microsoft and then get it back from repair. I figure I'll share my story. It's not over yet, but it should be soon. I have the E74 error.

Wed. 10/28 - I dropped my package off at the UPS store at about 5PM with the packing slip I printed off the net from Microsoft. I didn't feel like packaging the console myself, so I paid them $10 to do it. I'm lazy.

Fri. 10/30 - UPS tracks the package as delivered at 11:00AM. Sat. 10/31 - Microsoft e-mails me letting me know they received the console. Sun. 11/1 - Microsoft sends me another e-mail. This one lets me know my console is repaired. Mon. 11/2 - Microsoft sends me another e-mail. This one is about them shipping it back out to me and gives me my UPS tracking number.

I have it tracked leaving Mesquite, TX on Tues. It's supposed to be here by 11/9 but I'm not sure whether that's a placeholder date because it's ground shipping or if that's when it'll be here. It only took two days to deliver it to Microsoft originally. I'm hoping to see it here tomorrow, which is convenient for me since I'm stuck at the house all day anyways. Fingers crossed.

I'm not sure what we'll discuss here. I was merely reading my e-mails and figured I'd share. I guess give a quick synopsis of your own experiences sending in your 360s if you haven't gotten to share already in other threads. Overall, I'm pleased with the experience thus far. This was a very quick process, and I should have it back by the time Modern Warfare 2 comes out at the absolute worst.

Troll thread from an ATL TROLL account! 

Everyone knows MS takes 2-3 weeks JUST to repair it!

j/k, your gonna get your console back soon me on the otherhand no, its farther away :(

I thought we weren't allowed to cuss in the title


On topuc: I got mine back in a week when I had the RRoD last time

ABOUT THE TITLE
That's what she said
Oh, and you got lucky. I got screwed when I sent in my 360.

Consider yourself safe from my wrath if the word "quick" is in your title.

1st RROd = 3 weeks

2nd RROd = 2 weeks

1st time around M$ had to send me a box which took a week, the second time I had to supply one myself.

whats E74 again?

Nothing could be worse than the two months it took for me to get my PS3 back when my bro killed it. It was Targets fault and not sony's, but still I was was pissed as F@%k. Thank god I own a 360 too.

Beats me. It just comes up on a black screen. It has a sentence repeated in about 15 languages and it says in big bold letters E74 towards the bottom and directs you to go to microsoft.com for repairs. The bottom right quarter circle was red, which would be controller #4's signal.

They're probably just getting really good at fixing the problems thanks to all their experience :p
