(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So first off, I did this when i got console banned from "Call of Duty: Black Ops", SONY gave me a *NEW* Ps3 in exchange for my so called faulty Ps3.

Things you will need:

PS3 (Can be banned from Black Ops)
PS3 Serial Number
Phone (to call SONY or to get them to call you)
Photoshop
Customreceipt.com
A Brain

1. To start off download my blank receipt You must login or register to view this content.
2. Open it in Photoshop, then make a receipt on customreceipt.com.
3. Copy the information from the customreceipt image onto the blank receipt.
4. Now you can either phone SONY or E-mail them:

-Phone- Phone SONY and make up some garbage about how your ps3 randomly crashes and resets on a regular basis, give them your serial number, address etc, they should ask for your proof of purchase (our receipt we made), they will say you can fax it or post it, tell them you will FAX in the receipt, now go ahead and FAX in the receipt, someone from SONY will give you a call in a day or so and arrange a date to exchange the console on your door step.

-Email- E-mail SONY and make up some garbage about how your ps3 randomly crashes and resets on a regular basis, tell them you dont have a landline to phone them from so you will need someone to from SONY to phone you, leave your mobile number in the E-mail, when they phone you back give them your serial number, address etc, they should ask for your proof of purchase (our receipt we made), they will say you can fax it or post it, tell them you will FAX in the receipt, now go ahead and FAX in the receipt, someone from SONY will give you a call in a day or so and arrange a date to exchange the console on your door step.

After doing this i got a new ps3 on 3.15, so for anyone that "ACCIDENTLY" updated or their "BROTHER" got them banned from Black Ops, try it and post your results, oh and for anyone thats going to say proof or gtfo, go try it then post your proof cause I didnt plan on making a tutorial so i dont have any proof.

this won't work that means sony will lose out in lots of money but if it doe your just lucky

Theres no point posting saying it doesnt work, it already has, SONY may be losing out but there also going to be losing out if they decide to follow it up.

Good for you!
I wanna know; how long did it take for you to send and receive a new one? week? 4?
I wanna brick mine to send it in...

After i sent them the receipt via FAX, they phoned me the next day and arranged the pick up to be within the next two days (they let me pick a date for that week), let me know how it goes for you, if you need a receipt made PM me we can sort something out.

Lol im highly skilled with photoshop... Thanks for the offer though. But i still got a valid receipt 1½ years left lol.

It would be ****edup if they are on 3.56/3.60 already... Now i got 1 and a half years of warranty, if i send it in i get 3 months warranty allong with the ps3... Think ill wait. Not sure...

Well good luck with whatever you decide to do, the one they gave me was on 3.15, i was like WTF aint they trying to combat CFW etc.

Yeah maybe ill try the store i got it from. Depends on how they handle new warranty...
Well yeah they are. And i dont want a ps3 with the newest security that my current ps doesnt have. (lv0.2)

I would not want to get caught with this..

I had 2 banned PS3's so I bought a new one, then put the banned one in the new box and took it back and asked for an exchange and I got 2 new ones :p
