Dear helpful eBay Community,
I am trying to change my email address in my "Personal Information" area but EVERYTIME for the last 3 days straight, I click on the Peronsal Information link, I the same the same message "Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again later". Tried on my Mobile Phone, got a similar issue.
Any ideas?

That "personal information" link seems to be working for me, though I have not actually tried to make any changes to my address. But the form populates my address in an editable field with a "Cancel" or "Save" option.
It might be worth trying the same link on the ebay.com site to see if that works for you.

I signed up with ebay 5 days ago. I am experiencing the same issue when clicking on Personal Information.
Different devices, different browsers, still that same error message. Live Chat reported wait 24-72 hours but it still has not been fixed.

I have had this problem for three weeks now. Ebay has responded four times with promises to respond (to SR# 1-292486205056). I am unable to change my email address.

Just to put it out there, if you are trying to change your email address to something that resembles your username, you can't do it. For example, if your username is "treehugger", you can't change your email to "treehugger @ yourisp . com". Even adding an addition, like treehugger16 @ yourisp . com" isn't allowed.

Perhaps so, but I cant get to url where personals including the email can be changed, I get a "sorry, something went wrong".

Did you click on the link that Kopes left? That should take you straight to the correct page.
