I successfully did this two days ago, but I believe the volume of those trying to freeze their reports has increased to the point that the on-line and phone method is bogged down. You might try again, early in the morning, using either the web or phone method.
Though I had the freezes in place, I tried yesterday to get my credit reports from all three. I was able to only get one from Experian as the other two were unable to process on-line requests and suggested I use mail. Likely the overload, once again.
Curiously, when I successfully froze my reports, from here in California, it was about 9-10am, local time. Others on this forum in eastern locales were unable to complete on-line requests as it was 2-3 hours later in their local areas. Makes me think the companies have regional offices that process information, in this case.
