If it happens to you on eBay, rest assured, it is just another eBay glitch, and you are not alone. I`ve seen a couple of similar reports from different users today and yesterday.

Try using an incognito window.

I've been having this same issue all day yesterday and today.  Makes it really difficult to print shipping labels etc.  I don't use a smart phone for that kind of thing.

Try an incognito or private browser window, or another browser altogether.

 

Deleting your eBay cookies should remove your username from the default sign-in as well. Since private or incognito browser windows do not use cookies from previous sessions or store cookies, they should not be affected if there is a problem with cookies.

 

In some cases, your browser may be storing your credentials using the auto-fill forms feature.

 

Try an alternative sign-in page link. These are for the US site.

 

If you go to the ebay.com page and use the sign-in link it will send you here:

 

https://signin.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?SignIn

 

Almost all of the sign-in links I have seen send you to the same page, or an alternate page that looks the same:

 

https://signin.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?SignIn2

 

or possibly this:

 

https://www.ebay.com/signin/?sgn=reg&siteid=0

Hi @warehouse1009, can you share screenshots of what you are seeing? I haven't been able to recreate this on my end when testing this out, as I was able to switch between accounts without an issue.

I have the same issue on chrome.  Since ebay isn't taking phone calls I don't know how to fix the prob;em and need to service both of accounts.

What happens when you right-click on one of the alternative eBay sign-in links in message number 7 above, and choose "open link in incognito window", then try to sign in manually to one of your other accounts?

I don't know if you got the issue fixed but as mentioned earlier in your post I said I was having the same problem.  I normally use Chrome as my browser and I thought to myself (since I was alone) that maybe I'd try a different browser.  So I got on Microsoft Edge and tried logging into my second account.  Voila!!!! Success.

 

Now I know how to be on both accounts at the same time.... one on Microsoft Edge and one on Chrome.  Somewhat like the ghosting that someone else mentioned.
