    No replacement available so i had to refund it so i lose the discount till next year and wasted my time on two seperate days. I dont get why i can’t just buy stuff and it be working properly. Its compatible with my system and i followed the crappy instructions to a T. Very disappointing.

    The controller worked fine for a week and then disconnects on the SLIGHTEST movement of the cord. Literally cannot pick up the controller without it disconnecting. TURTLE BEACH SUPPORT TAKES DAYS TO RESPOND. DOES NOT SHIP NEW CONTROLLER AND BLAMES THE CUSTOMER. WILL NOT SHIP REPLACEMENT UNLESS THEY TAKE 3+ WEEKS. DO NOT PURCHASE DO NOT PURCHASE DO NOT PURCHASE!!!!! STAY FAR AWAY FROM TURTLE BEACH PRODUCTS. Absolute scum of a company. USED TO BE SUCH A GOOD COMPANY. NOT ANYMORE. I went out of my way to write a terrible review for this company to SAVE you customers from making the same mistake. DO. NOT. PURCHASE.
