Microsoft review: fraudulant charges on my charge and bank accounts 250

I purchased an Xbox360 for my son, who is mentally handicapped and does not have the freedom / opportunities of normal folks. He depends upon things like video games to keep him active and happy. The new system did not work (had steady red lights), and I called Customer Support on October 16. I spoke with Nancy. She determined that my system was bad and asked me to ship it to McAllen, TX (at my expense) for a replacement (refurbished) unit. I received the unit a couple of weeks later. It, too, had the "red light" problem, so I again called Customer Support on November 14 and spoke with Raymond, and with his supervisor Jeano. They determined that I had another defective system and asked me to return it for another replacement unit. I did so, and received yet another system. This one, too, exhibited the same problem as the other two. I began to suspect that something else was wrong, probably with the brick (power unit). I called Customer Support on December 12 and spoke with Adam. He agreed that the problem was likely the brick, and was VERY surprised that none of the other support agents had asked ANY questions that might have identified the problem. Once again, I returned a "defective" part -- this time the complete brick with power cord -- at my expense. I was hoping to have my son "in business" by Christmas, but the new part arrived here on December 26. I opened the package, only to find that I had been sent a brick, but NO power cord. Of course, the power cord is a special part available only through Microsoft. I called Customer Support again on December 27 and spoke with Earl, and subsequently with Earl's supervisor, Richmond. Once again, Microsoft support staff had not provided proper information, and once again I had no recourse. Richmond promised to resolve this situation. I received the power cord on December 30. It was the WRONG power cord. I again called Microsoft support and spoke with Ezekiel and with his supervisor, Frank. Frank located the previous order, saw the error, and promised to get me the right power cord. Again, I had to wait several days. I received the new power cord on 1/6/2007. It was, once again, the WRONG power cord. I again called Xbox Support and spoke with Ely and then with his supervisor, Aaron. Aaron first told me that the service center was out of proper cords and sent me the wrong cords as a result. This made no sense at all and I told Aaron that it was not acceptable, and asked to speak with HIS supervisor. Aaron returned a few minutes later and promised to send the correct cord.

This has been going on since October. I have had 3 system units, two power units, and now 3 power cords. In each case the support agents failed to ask questions that would have identified the problem, or failed to provide information that was needed to properly handle the situation. My son is still without his system and will remain without it for at least another week, at which time I will once again TRY to get it to work.

I would like to think that this is an exception, but after being mishandled for almost 3 months, trying to make my handicapped son understand, and encountering numerous Microsoft representatives who could care less about my issues, I believe "the giant" just doesn't care.

I have a similar problem. However i understand when ever something new product comes out there will always be problems and bumps in the road. My problem is with xbox360 customer service, i can't believe they call themselves customer service. I purchased xbox 360 live on 12/31/06 new years eve, by February 24, 07 game system broke. I spent numerous hours on phone with their customer services and still don't have any resolution yet.

Calls started march 3rd , spoke with rep "taola" not sure about spelling. Determined game needed to be returned for repair. Xbox 360 would send ups to pick up tower at their expense since game was still under warranty. Taola said it would take 3-5 business days, spent two hours on the phone with her . Ups never came.

Called week later spoke with easa (female again not sure of spelling) spent another two hours on phone. Said same thing they would spend ups out and still no one showed up.

Called next time spoke with supervisor don (female) once again made same promise and no one ever came to pick up game for repair.

Called again spoke with supervisor, at this time i was starting to lose my temper, spoke with supervisor again "denver" was worst customer service i ever received, couldn't get me off the phone fast enough. Once again they said they would have ups come by and pick up box. Once again i still have my box.

On 3/22 spoke with gabe and supervisor alexas, i really thought something was going to happen by this point, and once again same info and nothing has happened.

On 4/3 some with someone named nick badge number 320439 (supervisor) siad he was going to have someone come out and he would give me a follow up call.

As of today i am still in same situation as i was 2/26. I only wish someone would do what they say and say what they do.
If this is customer service i will never buy anohter thing fromthem, i will let everyone i know, know my experiences with them

I have been sent certificate by Microsoft - AOL -Award Program wherein i am winner of 900,000Pounds. Also i was lured to pay a total of Rs.2,00,000=00 ( INR ) in two different bank accounts provided by Mr. William Troy - So called Handling / Dispatch officer at parcel2Go Courier Services. After the same was remitted they told me that due to British Rules against the prevailing Terrorist Activities, they will deliver the same in CASH instead of the so called Cheque. Neither the cash came to India nor the fugitives are around to take my call. If wanted i will send the scanned copy of Award ; British Insurance Company Certificate towards the so called Insurance of the same & Way Bill Number of the Courier through which they were to send the cash. It goes without saying that the courier company only existed on PAPER.

I am a little disgusted that since they came out with their newer model of gaming system (x-box 360). They decided to discontinue their games for the older x-box. If I would have known they were going to do this I would have bought a Playstation 2. I know this isn't a very high complaint, but running your older gaming system out as early as they did to drive sales on the 360 which went up 250.00 more than the original x-box shows how greedy Microsoft really is. Plus they have had numerous problems with the 360. I would recommend anyone looking to purchase a video game system to avoid microsoft and go with the nintendo wii, or the playstation.

I bought an x-box 360 and have had several problems with it so far. I got a hold of a customer service rep and had some hard drive problems. They want me to ship it off and they will fix it for 170.00. I thought it should be free since I spent so much money on it in the first place. I went ahead and got the playstation 3 and havent had any problems with it. Yeah it really sucks you cannot buy the regular x box games. I would just go buy a playstation 2 or 3 and forget about microsoft. You know they wont change it. Good luck

I don't think Microsoft has been fair to any of us either! I bought my boys an XBox that has since become useless due to lack of games. I agree with Jeremy 100%! And by the way, that is no small complaint. We're sick of getting ripped off by greedy corporations! After all, we work hard for our money, while they sit back and drain us dry. Am I right? I view that as being flat-out abuse!

Hey John, how long have you had your 360 before it broke down? Because I just bought my boys a 360 last Christmas. I keep hearing about this "red light of doom" that appears in place of the green light around the power button. G4 TV ran a segment on this "epidemic". It's enough to make me paranoid. I tell my boys, "only play it for a couple of hours at a time, save your game, and give that wimpy little XBox a rest."

Hey Microsoft! You have a lot of nerve charging us to fix YOUR mistakes! Are you trying to be disrespectful to us, or does this behavior just come naturally and effortlessly to you? My guess is the latter.

I brought a x box 360 wireless controller charger a couple days a go. i followed the instructions to charge it for 6 hours. Then when i began to use it with my wireless controller. My stick didn't work, my character in the game turn up side down and began to move by them selves. I can't control any camera angles, character or action when i have the wireless charger battery in my wireless controller. Yet when i use normal batteries with the wireless controller everything works fine.

I receive this mail on November 17, 2007. Is it true?

I bought the Microsoft Zune 30GB refurbished during Thanksgiving sales for $94.95 on 11/24/07 and until today’s 12/25/07 I still didn’t receive my order yet. Buy.com never shipped out my order, but continued to send out several emails to me offering the same item for $109.00 and up instead. They regularly posted it for sale for $109.00 and up on their website too. Zune 30GB is very demanding during this holidays. Each time I checked the status of my order they claimed it was the setback from the supplier and never was able to give me the precise delivery date. I don’t believe a bit that there is a setback from the supplier. buy.com just sold my Zune to the people who paid it for $109.00 and more. They never confirmed a delivery date because buy.com wanted me and others to give up the order and canceled it. Like that they can make a shame profit of $20.00 or more for each order canceled. I did check out with Google and the transaction has been posted into my statement. That means buy.com did get my money and I never get my order delivered.

The fact is there that buy.com just blew themselves up very well. On one hand, they claimed a setback from the supplier and don’t shipped out the item to their customers who paid Microsoft Zune 30GB refurbished @ $94.95 (maybe just a few lucky enough customers to get delivered), on the other hand at the same time they proposed exactly the same item Microsoft Zune 30GB refurbished for sale for $109.00 and up throughout emails and website. I did inform buy.com that I bought the Zune 30GB for my son Christmas gift. They didn’t bother to let me know that they couldn’t meet to deliver it before Christmas. I don’t believe that adults from buy.com for an additional of $20.00 profit for each Zune 30GB go to low to ruin kid’s holiday’s gifts.

PS: On 12/25/2007 Christmas Day, buy.com informed me that the item is no longer available and they automatically canceled my order.

I ordered on 11/21/2007 and they did exactly the same thing to me. They held my money for a month then canceled my order. I purchased this as a christmas gift for my wife. Then when I called I waited on hold over 1 hour to be told I can buy one for 189.99 instead.

I ordered the 30 GB Zune on 11/24/07 and buy.com did the same thing to me. I am calling them today to find out if they plan to do anything for me.

My Xbox got the red ring so I called support to set up a repair. I can't recieve packages at my appartment so I have to call UPS and tell them to hold it there then go pick it up. So i get the tracking # and recieve my shipping box. I then mailed it in and 3 weeks later recieve a different Xbox. I plug it in and get ready to start playing but my controllers won't connect. Turns out this one will not work with any wireless controllers or headsets unless you are within a foot of the console. I call Xbox to set up my second repair and they tell me to call back in 24 hours to make sure it doesn't work. I call back again and set up a repair. Customer service tells me we can send you the classic arcade game for your trouble... Cool... i just want my Xbox... So i go through the whole process again of getting tracking #'s and running from UPS shipping center to the UPS store. Finally get my THIRD Xbox and... it's the same broken Xbox i recieved last time. On top of that the didn't send me those sweet arcade games i was supposed to get. So this time I call customer support and just ask for a supervisor. Earl, the supervisor, tells me "Sorry, I will personally make sure this repair will only take a week. You will recieve your box to ship it out on Monday and I will make sure you get those spectacular arcade games! So at this point I am just happy it will only take a week. I asked Earl to send my a tracking # to my E-mail so i didn't have to keep calling to get one. He says no problem they will send you one within 24 hours. Cool beans. Tuesday comes no box to ship out this thing and no E-mail with the tracking #. Now i am starting to get a bit frustrated. I call support again and ask for a supervisor. He tells there is no way i can get my Xbox in a week and he will have somebody call me tomorrow that will monitor the repairs. Well for once something happened that they said would happen. Today I recieved my call from Emerson, the monitor, who was good for a laugh. I told him my story and he said he was VERY SORRY... I wish i had a nickel for everytime i heard their customer support say that then i could just go buy a new Xbox Elite or a console that works. He told my the best they could do for me was a free wireless controller and if I wanted it could be wired just in case... you know... they sent me another broken Xbox. He actually said that hahaha. He also said that my buddy Earl the "SUPERvisor" was just telling me that i would get the Xbox in a week so he could make me feel better and could hang up. He said if i am not satisfied with what they are doing i can write Xbox a letter so here it is. After 2 and a half months, 20+ phone calls, countless hours talking to customer service that barely understands what i am saying, and about 100 miles of driving back and forth to UPS I sit her with no Xbox waiting for my arcade game and a controller (I could't even pick the color i wanted... pink) I still feel like NOBODY CARES. I decided to post this but like the rest of my experience with Xbox and microsoft it will probably end up a waste of time... : ( unhappy face

everything is worng in this divice i brought it for like 300.00 dollars and i ued it for about 3 days this ### sucks

Dear Microsoft,

My Xbox 360 has - within one year - died five times. I have been calling and writing trying to find someone there at Microsoft who can help me.

I'm a loyal customer who has spent thousands of dollars on your console and it's HDDVD add-on and games.

Four times I've sent my broken console in for repair and four times you haven't repaired it correctly. This last repair job lasted only 11 days!

When I purchased your extended warranty I had no idea how many times I'd have to use it!

I was a good sport four times but I can't go through this again. I've asked for either a NEW console or for you to return my money.

Your representative Jessica M called me today to inform me that you will not replace the console and you will not refund my purchase and to let me know that there is not anyone else who will talk to me.

I want to believe this is a big misunderstanding and I want to believe that this isn't a con game.

Would someone who can help me resolve this situation please call or write? I told Jessica M that I didn't want to seek counsel and blow this up any larger than it already is. But I don't think she cares or understands. I'm hoping somebody who receives this email will step up to the plate.

i've recently received e-mails about claiming a price from Microsoft in the UK, this as a result of a lottery of something similar, they are using the company's real name to promote this. I received them whitout any annuncement or advice of spam, a checked on the net about that and i found it was fake, becareful!

Sir,

I received e-mail as below and sent by Salvatore Murgiana whose detail as below.
The e-mail was about winning award for some fund.
Kindly let me know if this is true or false.

Thank you.
Regards.

I recently purchased a copy of madden 09 and am having disc read errors and have yet to complete a game. A few months ago I purchased GTA 4 and had freezing issues. I called Microsoft and they took my xbox, supposedly repaired it and sent it back to me. This process took four weeks and countless hours on the phone with moderately slow people.

I now have freezing issues with the new game and am hearing more information on having an old xbox. Microsoft wont repair my xbox or do anything to replace them...I don't understand. They don’t make any money from console sales, all revenue is generated from game sales. Why are they insisting people go out and buy another console...I want to switch to PS3, its blueray and not near the problems. I see the writing on the wall...First Vista, the biggest flop in OS history then xbox.

I'm buying a MAC and a PS3 and boxing up my xbox and PC for a UPS delivery to Redmond, WA with a big "thanks for helping me make a change" letter. Bill Gates...your foundation does great things for people who don't have resources, your company does nothing for the people who give you the resources! Thanks a bunch BILL.

I used Microsoft 'one care' computer security system for 1 year but decided not to renew my contract, microsoft ignored this and used my credit card details to withdraw £37.99 from my card account, this is being investigated. This type of behavior by a major company is disgusting and I shall think twice before giving card details or dealing on the net again.

For the umpteenth time, a Microsoft update for Vista crashed my systems. In the past year, my laptop crashed twice and require new reinstalls; and this time my desktop crashed to the point that I can't even start the OS. It's in a shop now for data recovery, but it's the last straw. I never thought I'd say this, but it's time to move on to a Mac. If Microsoft can't take care of its customers, I refuse to support it.

My 15 year old Son worked all last Summer and part of Winter to buy this X-Box 360 Elite and the intercooler ( a good system should not need an intercooler!) and has had nothing but problems with it. Now we are having to send it back to Microsoft again for more repairs
(the system was only 3 months old when the first problem occurred). I advise all Parents not to waste the money on this console, for within a couple of months, if not sooner, you will start having problems with it...connecting to DSL, reading discs, signing into your account, downloading anything that you purchase...which if a download fails, you don't get reimbursed for it...and then some. And their customer support is a joke. Half the time you cannot understand them because they talk too fast or are not very good with their English. And you never get the same person twice, so you have to go through the "issues" all over again with someone new who then tries to tell you something else is wrong! They try blaming it on you internet provider most of the time. They tell you that if you do not have a "Major" internet provider, that you will always have issues going online. If that's the case, then why don't they list that on the box? I bought the extended warranty ($39.99) and we have been dealing with Micro Soft again now, since July of this year, trying to get them to send us their shipping box so that we don't have to pay again to ship it. Each person I have talked to has told me that they will get that box out to us that day. I faxed them the receipt numerous times as requested, showing that it has not been a year since we bought it and that they are still resonsible for it's repairs. Each time I have faxed it, they tell me they cannot read it. I have faxed it from several different places. It is now September, still no shipping box, and they have told me that it is no longer covered by them and to return it to K Mart and let them repair it! Micro Soft has "doodled" around letting our warranty with them run out and now are trying to shift the resonsibilities onto K-Mart. After seeing what problems X-Box has had, I helped my Son by a Playstation 3 and boy, what a difference in graphics, getting online and customer support! We called them just to see what kind of service we would get from them, and we were impressed. We have not had one problem with this system and we have had it for about 6 months. We have been die hard Playstation people since the beginning and we still have our Playstations 1 and 2...and they still work! So, I advise anyone to investigate the numerous issues with X-Box before purchasing one. You'll be surprised how many others have had the same problems as we have had.

Dear Sir,
I have receive a mail from E.S.S.A that i won a lottery which is $250, 000.00. Now please suggest me is it true or fraud to me.

Best Regards
Md. Hasan Uz Zaman

Mine is not a Microsoft complaint, but I want to warn people about PrinterInks.com.

PrinterInks cashed my cheque but did not send the goods. They ignored my emails regarding the matter.

Now they have had the audacity to send me an email offering 3 for 2! How many times do they think people will get ripped off before they stop ordering from them?

This experience has put me off ordering online. I now buy my cartridges from Tesco. They are reliable and just as cheap, and I have the goods in my hand after I have paid for them.

hello sir,
my Xbox 360 has been giving me a little trouble recently, as i am not able to use the machine at all.. There is a red light which keeps popping up on the console as soon as i switch on the machine.. Wanted to know what could be wrong with the game.. My machine is still in warranty as i purchased the game just one year back..
Hoping to receive a positive reply from ur end..

This charge also showed up on our statement for no reason. Appealing charge to financial institution.

MICROSOFT *ADCENTER BILL.MS.NET made two unauthorized withdrawals from CC account.

Scam, ...

Someone, ... out of the blue, ... flashes dollar signs(in this case, English Pounds) and asks for your personal information. Then, through telephone conversations with a highly motovated person, your bank account becomes a statistic.

It's written in the same manner as any South African's dead banker's widow would write in order to gain access to your money.

It would be sweet if it were true though, ... all us "WINNERS" could get together and have one hell of a party!

This company took $50.30 some cents out of my account with for something I did not a apply for and I would like it refunded credited back to my account as soon as possible I will filed a dispute with my credit card company if this is not taken care of right away.

Richard Harvey.

I cannot access website or use phone number provided. Phone number says to contact support@earnmicrosoftcash but there is no such site. i want to cancel my account.
