Warranty Isn't Working.

So i have a meta quest 3S that i bought recently from best buy and my controller isn't turning on and whenever i try to get a replacement it says there are no devices associated with this account even though there is and when i enter my serial number it says support isn't available for the device and i can't do anything now i have tried every possible way to try and fix the controller but what makes it worst is that they both have some serious stick drift that i have tried fixing using all methods that won't work so i cant get a replacement and i will have to return it or sell it please reply for a solution.

    EdgySquirrel8003​  the second link steve_40​  provided gives you the serial number from the box.

    If you even with that serial number can't get through the help pages, contact support via email, chat or WhatsApp HERE

    my controller isn't turning on

    they both have some serious stick drift

    You said one of them doesn't turn on, so how do you know it has stick drift 🤔?

    Regardless, take it back to Best Buy for replacement, rather than going through Meta support. Meta would likely only swap your new headset and controllers for refurbished ones.

    The serial number to use is usually the one on the box, not the device.

    You should see your device listed here and/or here.

    I already knew it had stick drift because before it was working fine but just stopped working but it still flashes lights and vibrates and i had already threw the box away because i did not know the serial number was gonna be on it or i wouldnt have known that my controller would work.
