been trying to change my User ID but i keep going into a loop. every time i click edit, it takes me to the confirm password page then required to enter a captcha but after that it just brings me right back to the home page.  Going back to edit user ID just does the same thing like a loop. Anyone know what the cause is?

I don't understand this bit

 

Have you tried logging out and then in again?

yes. i've tried logging out and logging in. the captcha thing is where they require you to enter a random 6 string number as verification. i've never had this problem before

Have you tried cleraing your browser history/cache/cookies and such?

 

Possible it is stuck in a sign in loop type pattern

Try changing to a different browser and try again (Firefox and Google Chrome work better than Internet Explorer

 

when using eBay so could be a browser specific issue).

 

Microsoft Edge has had similar issues in the past and can freeze if using it for eBay.
