Online retailing giant eBay's recently reported difficulties signing in to the site from locations in India, the US, the UK and Europe.
Users say that they cannot sign into their accounts and are receiving incorrect password alerts, the BBC reported.
An eBay spokesperson, Ryan Moore, told the BBC that the technical glitch was the result of scheduled server maintenance. This is the 11th such problem that eBay has suffered this year.
Mr Moore said that the sign-in issue was affecting only a small portion of users, with most remaining unaffected and they are working to resolve this issue quickly and will continue to keep the customers updated. We apologise for any inconvenience to our users.
Earlier, eBay administrators had posted that the site was to undergo planned maintenance on 4 September.
