Cant verify Apple ID

I created a new Apple ID.

System requests that I check mail to verify

I check mail

Click on link that takes me to verification page

I enter info

I get:

"This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."

If I try to manage apple ID it says I need to verify.

I click on send verification email.

I check mail

Click on link that takes me to verification page

I enter info

I get:

"This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID."


...and again and again...


ANY IDEAS?


Thanks!

The problem is, most people already have itunes accounts so don't need to verify them. This is only a problem for people making new accounts.


I have spoken to 5 different people from Apple UK today. None of them had any idea about this issue and were telling me it was something I was doing wrong. One promised he could only fix the problem if I bought an additional AppleCare package, they are trying to make money from their own mistakes!


Trying to con people is not the way to resolve this!!

Jesus people they are working on it! COMPUTER SYSTEMS HAVE PROBLEMS OCCASIONALLY!!!!! If something happens to your car, do you say "**** toyota, my radiator leaks. What a ****** company! I never wanted a Toyota product but was FORCED to buy one and it is ruining my life!!!!!" Get a grip. They are working on it and will have it fixed as soon as possible. They are human beings you know.
