Forums - Sony - Sony - exchanging defective playstation 4 units immediately

Lock if old

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2013/11/19/sony-exchanging-defective-playstation-4-units-immediately.aspx


We reached out to Sony today to find out more about the reports of defective PlayStation 4 units. As we mentioned last week, Sony estimates hardware failures at 0.4 percent.

“There have been several issues reported, which leads us to believe there isn’t a singular problem that could impact a broader percentage of PS4 units,” a Sony representative tells Game Informer. “We also understand that some units were reportedly damaged during shipping. The number of affected PS4 systems is less than 1%, which represents a very small percentage of total units shipped to date and is within the expected range for a new product introduction. We understand the frustration of consumers that have had a problem and are working with them and our retail partners to help troubleshoot issues and ensure affected units are exchanged”

We inquired about repair and replacement times for those consumers that choose to approach Sony directly rather than attempt a fix through a retailer. The representative gave us some good news. “SCEA is exchanging units with new replacements for those who call our support line,” he says. “The exchanges are immediate with expedited shipping.”

1% and a direct immediate replacement. To be expected and fantastic customer service, makes you wonder what all the fuss was about?

Props to Sony for acting fast. There are probably few consoles that are affected but the sooner you act, the more respect you get from fans.



obviously the problem is much less than reported. If that is the case, it is easy for them to do immediate replacements and make this issue go away quickly.



It is near the end of the end....

But... but, they said it was 50% from Amazon =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
