It's working OK for me.

I seem to remember a message on the site yesterday, something about some facilities not being available for a short time because they were working on the site - I think it was FS I saw that on. Maybe you tried just at the wrong moment.

Researching:
Old genealogists never die.....they just lose their census.

Hello ArgyllGran. A long time no contact, hope all is OK with you. Re Family Search been trying for 2 days now , thought they may be working on the site. I have been with them for a few years now so just can't understand why I am logged in but that message keeps coming up, yet you are able to. Have a good Christmas AG

I wonder if it's something to do with the fact that I logged on a couple of days ago and ticked the box to stay logged in for two weeks?
So I'm still logged in.
I won't risk logging out to try to log in again - maybe that won't work!

Happy Christmas to you too, John.

I only set up the free account a few days ago so I could continue to use the site. I always log out of sites and I have logged in and out of familysearch several times over the last few days and had no problems at all.
