Well about a mounth ago i was playing Fallout 3 when all of a sudden my 360 starts making this weird noise so i save my game and turn it off. i try and see if my 360 works then but it does the laser is broken or something and it will not read my games. So i send it in for $100 to be fixed because my 3 mounth warenty ran out after i got the red ring of death. my 360 comes back finally yesterday and im excited. So it says they sent me a referbeshed 360 counsle. Well i hook it up and what do you know it has the red ring of death as soon as i hook it up. Well microsoft i dont know what your trying to do by sending me a xbox still broken but hey what can i do now but just wait for another mounth for my new xbox(hopefully fixed) because you wont send me a fix one in the first place that i spent a $100 dollars for.

I'd call them up, 1800-4-myxbox and explain your situation, ask for some sort of compensation and they'll probably send you some free xbox live time or something equivalent. They won't make you pay again though if you just got it back, because they put a new limited warranty on the refurbished models.
