Hi

I had the same problem with mine, ask SE would they repair/replace it as its only 6 months old.
They gave me a wishy washy answer about not been under warranty.

I asked SE what did they mean by the part not been under warranty.
I cant find there response from SE, but i remember them saying that this wasnt a known fault.
It seems that there is a few of us with the exact same fault !!

@cableguy!

Mine has split right through now so that the rubber tubes are showing.

I have patched it with tape but it looks bad... Of course, I can't see it because it is behind my neck !

I am trying to think of a good way to repair ...

Hi!

My neck band split completely the other day so I did some modifications !

I cut out the 'behind the neck' part of the neck band and made small loops.



I then sewed 2 buttons to a Walkman lanyard !



And then fitted the loops over the buttons!

The W950i can also be used suspended from the lanyard!

Of course, if I put some buttons on a different lanyard, transfer is easy !

Hi
Ended up buying another one off Ebay for 40e, I will keep one at work and have one at home so I can use it when I go for my jog in the evenings.

Pity I couldnt just buy the neckstrap , wonder will the HBH-DS980 have the same problems?

The HBH-DS970 is without a doubt the most shoddly made piece of kit SE have ever produced! I have made the Orange shopI bought mine from replace mine no less than three times due to the neck strap simply pulling apart. This is typical of the rubbish build quality I have come to expect from SE.
