Sony did something similar for me for my PS3. It was out of warranty and the drive stopped reading Blu-ray discs. CDs worked fine. I couldn’t find the receipt to see how old it was but contacted them anyway. They said can I find an old bank statement or something to see if it is still in warranty. The only thing I found was it showed up in the loyalty points of the game shop I got it from. They accepted this as enough proof however the unit was out of the standard warranty. They said they will still accept it. They sent out a postal guy with a thick plastic box with foam insulation with a replacement PS3 in it. Great! All free of charge. I was well happy. Then a week later a letter arrived and contained the SD card that I accidentally left in my old PS3.
Sony went the extra mile here. Very happy with the outcome.

That’s awesome. I’m wondering if Sony would go the extra mile nowadays. Curious if folks here can chime in on that

Yeah. As much as I praise Sony for this endeavour, I doubt it’s the same now.

That’s awesome way to go Sony. Rather having us play :)
