If you feel your Xbox 360 hardware is faulty, here are the steps to have your unit repaired or replaced:
* Step 1: Phone Microsoft Xbox Technical Help on: 0800 991-550 from 10am - 6pm, Monday - Friday. They will troubleshoot your problem and if they feel a solution cannot be found, they will supply you with a reference number. They will also ask to register your console, so look up your serial number before phoning in.
* Step 2: Powercare looks after all Xbox warranty claims in South Africa, and will deal with your replacement. You have a few ways of completing the replacement procedure, and in all cases you should have your issued reference number from step 1, along with your console's serial number at hand:
o Contact them by phone on 0861 XB0X-360 / 0861 926-9360 or 011 997-5000
o Or, Download the Warranty Procedure Claim Form and either email it to
[email protected]
o Or Fax it to:

* Step 3: When stock becomes available, a courier will deliver the replacement Xbox 360 unit directly to you. Only the actual console will be replaced, so remove your hard drive and any other peripherals, including cables. (If you're lucky, you may receive a Jasper unit as replacement, therefore, you should receive a new power adapter as well)
If stock is available, you should be issued with a new console fairly quickly, however, turn-around times can be as much as 1 month when there's a shortfall.
