I recently sent off for a Quantum of Solace MP3 player from the Sun and I can't get the thing working.

I have followed all the instructions on the little booklet which came with it but I can't get music from it.

Has anyone else sent for one of these and had problems with it??

Serves you right for buying that rag. Just proves further you can't trust them scum at the Sun.

Justice for the 96

On behalf of the OP, yeah, thanks for that, very helpful. Arse.

and you've become involved because........ Gobshite

whats the 96?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillsborough_disaster

The Sun's attitude to the event didn't exactly go down well in Liverpool.

They are the number of people who died needlessly on 15/04/89 at Hillsborough for which justice has never been served.

We never even received ours. We never buy the Sun normally...the tokens came from our workplace newspaper. Still, typically scummy of the Sun to not even send the player out...and they kept the stamps.

back to the thread again, we got ours yesterday,friday.
followed instructions and it doesnt work. didnt expect an ipod for the few coppers,just a small player to use at work.
i contavted the sun and got the reply that they are sending them out right now,sic.

will try again tomorrow.

sorry that should have been orders are being processed and to allow up to 8 weeks for delivery

I got mine a few weeks ago and it works fine.Just plugged it into the pc copied the music files onto it, put in a AAA battery, hold the play button down for a couple of seconds and it plays.

i downloaded the music ok, just one track to see if all was well. it wont play nor will it switch off either, i have to remove the battery to turn off. i have treid to see if the pause is on and it doesnt appear to be.
wish i'd spent the money on woolworths or zavvi vouchers now instead,lol

To get mine to work i just press the play/stop button once and to turn it off i just hold the play/stop button down for a couple of seconds. It works the same way as any usb memory stick style mp3 player that you would buy from any electrical shop for around a tenner.

like i said,mine wont play or turn off no matter how long you hold the button down for.

had a reply from the sun customer services, they are replacing mine within 28 days
