Maintenance for the week of March 25:
• [IN PROGRESS] ESO Store and Account System for maintenance – March 28, 9:00AM EDT (13:00 UTC) - 12:00PM EDT (16:00 UTC)

Can't log in on ESO website -- Can't access account or download launcher

Despite all efforts I am unable to log into the ESO website (https://account.elderscrollsonline.com/login).
When I enter my username and password nothing happens.
I tried this on both my PC and my phone. I also tried both Chrome and Edge. Nothing works.
No, I don't need a password reset. Already asked for support and that's what they told me. It didn't work.
I still can't log in.

Any help would be appreciated.
I can't test my username and password on the launcher as I can't download the launcher without logging into the website.
What a useless system.

    Having this exact same issue via website and launcher. I thought my account was hacked but I see no new e-mails from them at all, so I doubt anything did happen. I even have 2 step authentication on as well if I'm not mistaken but can't get logged in to check.
    PC/Xbox One - NA

    What bothers me is that they downplay it as if some people can not access their accounts. Most people in the guilds I am in are all saying on Discord that they can not access their accounts. Nobody seems to be able to. In addition to that you can not access your account from the ESO website even after resting the password.

    What I wish is that they would simply acknowledge that there are login issues for the website and the game both. Then give us an update although I expect it to be vague such as "We will let you know more information as we are investigating" or whatever.

    They did post about an hour ago on twitter that they are investigating login issues but they keep stating the ESO Megaserver. I feel they should know that it's not just the Megaserver and it is our accounts in general. They could still be doing some kind of maintenance and it isn't finished but knowing what is going on would be nice.

    Same. In game I get the following pop-up, which kinda worries me. Kinda looks like they somehow either accidentally blocked/inactivated many people, or have an error in whatever piece of code checks credentials with their database. On the website, I get a general "There was a problem processing your request, please try again!" message. Hope the devs can fix it soon, or at least ensure us we won't loose anything we did the past years. I've played on this account since 2014 or so, would hate to loose stuff that I achieved in that time, especially since it seems a bug on their side...

    @Sharlikran Isn't the ESO megaserver also the place where credentials are stored for both website and the game tho? Any good database would not have double instances of the same data as that increases the chance on issues with changes in data drastically, so they probably just have accounts stored only on one place which both the site and the game accesses. That way website and in-game are always on one line with what you own and what your credentials are. The database in which it's stored could be stored on the megaserver. Considering we can access the forums which is a different account which could be stored somewhere else, I think it makes sense to say we can't access the ESO megaserver as they likely just store our whole account on there.

    Funny how we can all access the forum but nothing else. I'm guessing the forum is not held on the megaservers

    As far as I remember, the forums have always been separate. Even if you logged into the main website or your account management page, you still had to log into the forums separately. Even the passwords are maintained separately and can (and should) be different from each other.

    They finally updated the "announcement" section saying the NA Megaserver is down for maintenance.
