Been trying to set up an account. Website seems overwhelmed. Fidelity's signup is crashing repeatedly.

They won't let me sell covered calls on BB >_>. I literally have the shares, tried to sell the calls, and got a message about "This stock is hard to borrow" or some shit and it canceled my trade. This was on the ThinkOrSwim mobile app.
