Logging into ebay

[Bunneh]

Is anyone else having a problem logging into ebay.co.uk?

I keep entering my username and password and it keeps looping asking me to enter it in again

I have tried a few other accounts and they are fine, i just wondered if it was a problem with one of there servers

No issues for me. Are you sure you have the username and password correct, may be worth double checking

[Bunneh]

yes i ve tried entering the wrong password and it tells me its wrong, but when i enter the correct one, it just loops :(

Have you tried a different browser? Maybe a cookie problem. I had same problem last night with a .co.uk login...gave me cookie error - I closed the browser and used the same one (IE) and no problems after.

Hi Bunneh,

Yes, I've experienced this very thing several times on a few accounts. Not sure what the issue is exactly, but may well be cookies as rsot suggests.

Happened to me. Did the clear cache cookies etc then a different browser

Worked OK

As Ebayorbust said been an intermittent issue..

Have noticed this since Easter with occurrences towards end of the week

really really weird ive tried clearing cookies and a new browser now, but when i use a different browser (firefox) it just blocks the log in. it doesnt say the password is wrong either.. and when i do try the wrong password it tells me it is wrong.

Hows the reception on your dongle doing when your trying to log in.

i get it on some sites when i try log in but my signal strength is not usually that good at the time

Interesting note - I would think that the browser would just give the message 'Working offline' or so...unable to reach page

Not with some UK dongles. Often not even the working offline message happens. Just the going around in circles, and round, and round.

Have this on some non-eBay UK sites too

Whenever I use a stealth account on a stealth IP, I always have to log in twice, it even shows "recently viewed items" on first log in but then it makes me log in again when I click anything.

Known little glitch on eBay UK - I have had this...I have also had long loading times (of course comes from using dial-up)

Lol ive given up with the account... STILL to this day cannot log into it, so working on my other ones.

Was told they 'ESCALATED' the problem, but you know what ebay chat is like..

Try having the password reset, may work. If not, try logging in on a different browser.
