Cant create Business account on Ebay.co.uk

[Christianm]

has anyone attempted to make a business account on ebay.co.uk within last few days , any country address you try upon choosing a id your faced with a message we cannot complete the registration at this time.

have you tried making a normal ebay account, converting it to a seller and then under account settings change it to business?

[Christianm]

yes you can do a personal I'm talking about setting up a business account from the start must be a glitch.

[Bunneh]

yes but the only other way that works is what i showed as the method you say is bugged.

[Christianm]

yeah i know what your saying, thing is i do EU accounts once you change from personal to business they ask to confirm it by phone that creates a problem as you need each country a local phone. When created as business from the start it never asks for a working phone in my experience long term.

As I've never used a personal since 2000, what really is the short term difference between saying have a Ebay Personal linked to Paypal business non id assume?
