[bassetwba]

why does a page saying pardon our interruption keep appearing when I am trying to search items only in the UK it is annoying and I have to search worldwide making searching a pain

[kinkozanfan]

I've just started getting it. As soon as I click on UK Only

[leejamesphone]

Yes, I have same with both Chrome and Firefox browsers. Happens inetmittently just going from one page of results to the next, but happens 100% if selecting "UK Only" option.

..tried on both Chrome and Firefox, same thing on both browsers.

It seems reporting it on twitter might be more effective 

This is what I reported and their answers

@AskeBay

keep getting this message when I try and perform search "Pardon our interruption... As you were browsing eBay, something about your browser made us think you were a bot........." Community asking why too. Answers please #ebay #problems

Hi there! What internet browser are you using? ~Daniel

@HartberryArt

Chrome and I've cleared the browser

@AskeBay

Okay thank you! And is this happening when trying to run a basic search on the site or when using your saved searches? ~Daniel

@HartberryArt

Running advanced search with parameters

Same here since yesterday evening. Happens always when slecting "UK only" option but also intermittently with other filter options. Called helpdesk, polite but said they were unaware of issue !

No problem at all here, and I've been using the site all morning.  If it helps, I use Firefox on a laptop. I don't use the app.

I'm also using Firefox - works for saved searches but as soon as I (for example) create a search via "Shop by Category" and then change the location to UK only, the message pops up and I can't get to my search results....

i'm using firefox on a laptop and i started getting it this morning, probably only a matter of time till it gets round to everyone.

[leejamesphone]

Yes, I tried both Chrome and Firefox - same thing.

[hartberry]

Yes I'm getting this too.  Have cleared browser but to no avail.  Very frustrating.

[finbar_saunders]

Same here - seems to be yet another badly tested change to the search pages....

Same problem here. Ebay UK, France, Italy, Australia - all reporting this bot warning message. It's impossible to search for anything.
