I just got this e-mail:

How was your Thanksgiving? I just wanted to let you
know that my trifle bowl broke. Somehow a big chunk
came out of the middle of it. No one will fess up
right now. It is a wierd break. Anyway, if I can
find the receipt can I return it?

What do I do?
 
If its under warrenty I would just do a product adjustment online.
 
I often recommend the customer call HO to do the exchange/return, that way they can answer any questions HO has right away without phone tag.

on-line adjustments aren't working right now. I called tech support and they are just now coming across this problem. Now I'm on hold with Customer Support, but they didn't give me the call back option....aarggh!I think I'll try on-line later and see if the problem is fixed.
 
I got the call back option at about 10:45 pst and it was between 5 1/2 and 6 3/4 hours... so they are probably done assining call backs for the day. YIPES!
 
I did an online adjustment awhile ago right after your post with no issues.
