Recently, 2nd Jan 2022 my logging has stopped. In My Account I see I have an expiry date of 10/Jan/2022 could this be the cause??? Specifically does a Free Account eventually expire and besides paying for a student or Home account is there anything I can do to continue using ThingSpeak at no charge? My message count is well below the maximum of 3 million per year.

What is your primary use of ThingSpeak? Are you using it for commercial projects?

Used for non commercial projects based on arduino / ESP hardware for home monitoring only

I see at least one of your channels was updated today. See: https://thingspeak.com/channels/249073

I think this may have to do with connectivity on your devices, and nothing to do with ThingSpeak.

Thanks for prompt response. Based upon what you have said I'm assuming the 'Free Accounts" never expire. Interesting that channel 249073 is reporting as working as there is no controller this end so maybe I should delete that channel and try establishing a new 'test channel' to see if I can get a new channel running and then if so reinstall previous 2 channels that I'm using to see if that makes things come good. Any further advice appreciated
