Hi *****



I do apologies for the delay regarding your console, my managers had a meeting last week with the courier company.



My manager advised me that it will take 7 days from last Thursday to clear, as soon as the stock comes in we will start dispatching.



I already gave your documents to my manager so that she can make sure that your one is one of the first once dispatched.



Kind Regards

Bernice
 
Maybe things would work faster if they just gave all of you a refund so you can go buy a new one from retailers?

+1

Just take the broken console at the retailer
 
apparently the stock is still being held up @ Customs, due to MI Digital Liquidation
 
contacted them again today:

Dear *****



I would like to share with you a statement from our Xbox product manager with regard to the stock situation. All customers who are due to have their console replaced will be receiving this communication from the service centre – Powercare.





“Dear Xbox Customer



We wish to thank you for your patience and understanding while we resolve the issue of the replacement stock . Unfortunately the stock was destined for Midigital and due to the recent liquidation we were forced to change the importer of record to Powercare . The process however has unfortunately caused delays in the clearing of this stock through customs . We would like to assure you that we have explored every avenue in expediting the release but the indication is that the soonest we can expect release is 22 July .



There will be increased staffing at Powercare to ensure rapid despatch of stock upon arrival and minimise any further delays to you our valued customer .



We appreciate the patience you have shown us in dealing with these unforeseen circumstances .





John Press

Product Marketing Manager -Entertainment and Devices

Microsoft South Africa”



I know this does not necessarily lessen the frustration you have experienced, but this situation is completely out of our control and we are desperately trying to resolve this for our customers.





Regards,



Lena De Bellis

and another BS reply

Hi *****



It isn’t about giving anyone more time – it is all dependant on the system as explained in previous e-mails. My apologies that you may have received incorrect information around when to expect a replacement unit but we are doing our best to honour our commitments. However sometimes the outcome isn’t as anticipated.



I have copied John Press, the Product Manager for Xbox 360 as he is the best person to determine exactly when the stock will be available. John, please could you revert back to ***** as a matter of urgency regarding replacement stock for faulty consoles. ***** has been very patient but he has now been waiting 3 months for his replacement console, please could you let him know when he can realistically expect to receive it.



Thanks



Regards



Yvette
