I can't seem to respec my captain skills

I go through the selection process and click Accept.....SOMETIMES it says "skill selection error was made" and reverts back to my previous skills.....rest of the time it doesn't say a thing and still reverts back to my previous skills selection.
Just hopeing i'm not alone in this as its rather frustrating.....i'd kind of like to access the new skills they put in and undo some skill selections i regret. I've given up on their search function as it typically states "use 3 words or more" when i have used more then 3 words trying to narrow something down....and if i've used fewer then 3 words it still says "use 3 words or more" and comes back with no matches.

I respecced my RA5 twice, and it just reset me to my old values when I hit accept.
Am I not supposed to hit respec when I finish?
