Do I have the chance to exchange a defective device at Mediamarkt without a receipt?

A button on my PS4 controller no longer works. Unfortunately I also paid cash and nothing to prove. However, I still know the exact date and time of purchase, because I happened to take a picture of the controller when I was sitting in the car after buying it. Does that bring anything, can they look it up in the system?

Sometimes they will even reprint a receipt for you.

Nothing works without a receipt.

Yes, you can look it up in the system. Whether they will take the trouble is another matter.

Va

But they can look in the system or not?

Va

All right, I'm curious.

Unfortunately, it can't be said exactly, it depends on the employees. If you're lucky, they might try a little. Otherwise you can call customer service and inquire there.

Unfortunately not everything is always saved in the system. For example, I only have the last 15 receipts saved.

And what do you want to do now? You can't complain about the controller anyway because I assume that the button broke through your own fault and that it wasn't a manufacturer's fault. So what bother for? You won't be able to give it back, not even with a receipt!

Va

I have a 1 year guarantee. It didn't fall off or anything. The button just got stuck despite normal use and it is just as if it was pressed in and you can no longer press it.

Va

Thank you, I'll inquire. LG

Do you have an extra guarantee? If not, then the Media Markt guarantee is voluntary. You have a 2 year warranty, but it will be checked whether the damage is a manufacturer's error or your own fault. This also includes normal wear and tear on the item.

Va

You reprinted it for me.

Va

Sooo, I received the receipt by email and then got the controller exchanged without any problems.

Ok then you were lucky that Media Markt was accommodating
