eBay nightmare.

Hi all, Can someone explain how I contact ebay when I can't "sign in" No matter how I try to contact C/S I need to sign in first, chat, phone call, any other option available all require a signing in. When I go to sign in, I get as far as the 2nd letter of my ID & the screen freezes. Luckily I am not selling anything, if I were & a question was asked about the item, I wouldn't be able to respond.
Frustration isn't the word. I've found ebays address & am sending a letter this morning, ridiculous innit? :mad::mad::mad:
Cheers.

    I think ebay have problems again this morning. I have logged in and managed to deal with a couple of items- but now ebay shows as unavailable on the server.

    Same here,

    Managed to do 2- although print postage wouldn't work so I swapped to paper hand written labels. My holiday settings came off yesterday and I had a huge rush (for me that is as a small seller) about 2 days worth of sales in 8 hours- and I need to get these done and posted before I go out again.

    I'm just about to post about another glitch I found last night as well that is affecting people trying to buy

    I had the problem again last night where Ebay is telling UK sellers I don't ship to their location. This is the fifth time a buyer has told me this, and how many others have given up and bought elsewhere ?

    Working today, so will phone Ebay again tonight. I booked a call back last night, but that never happened. It's getting worse :(

    This is becoming unreasonable now- I spend about as much time trying to get through their glitches as I do running the business in the first place
