Anyone else? 429 error.

So I have multiple accounts and sign in and out of them constantly to list on other pages and check for questions, sales, etc.  Anyways.  I've been having this issue lately where when I do that, they constantly are now asking me to input a code sent to my phone.  It didn't used to do that when just switiching back and forth with stored passwords.  Well... Now, it's not letting me login to any of my accounts on the mobile app and it says.

 

"Something went wrong: 429"

 

I called eBay and they said it was a problem for other users as well.  But why?  Why is this even happening?  I can't even log into my accounts now on my mobile app.  Thanks eBay!

Re: Anyone else? 429 error.

There are limits to the number of times you can sign in and out per day using the eBay app. It sounds like you may be running into those limits.

 

You might be able to avoid signing in and out so much by using the app for one eBay account, and using a different browser for each other account. Or a different private or incognito browser window for each account. That way you can stay signed in to multiple accounts at the same time and quickly check messages or sales without needing to juggle sign-ins all the time.

Same here exactly!! I just came to see if anyone else was asking/saying anything about it! I hate it asks you to sign in a million times now!! Also now I have the same 429 error!!

There is nothing to fix; that is how it works.

 

Use a browser instead of the app to avoid the app limit.

Maybe if we wait it might let us sign back in
