Anyone else having problems making new Ebay business accounts?
I get to the part where it asks about company information, then it says they are having technical difficulties . Had this for last four accounts I tried to make

Clear cache and cookies and try again, works for me. Clearing cookies can be a pain, but as you're only at the initial setup stages, you should experience any issues from it.
Yes, same problem happened with me then i contacted with ebay, even they didn't sort it out.Then i found one way to sort this myself. When they didnt allow me open business account then with same email i opened personal account. Then i change it to business account later.
Can confirm I made one last night just fine, although I did get this error at first.
I simply filled in the columns again but entered the address manually instead of it asking me to choose from the list via the postcode, so I would give that a try.
if not try a new browser as advised and should hopefully work.
Ok at last I have figured out the issue, it's the phone number I was using. When I hit the problem, I now go into the account settings, change the number then try again and it works.
I've had this happen a few times recently, it only happens when you use an o2 number in my experience. Ebays system doesn't seem to recognise it first time. It takes a few goes for it to work.
If you can't get it to work, then going in to your settings, deleting and re-entering the number fixes the issue.
Yes, I get ti the point where there's an error, then I go into account settings and change the phone number to something random, then continue and it works
