Message my free domain will expire !!!

My account page in the Members Centre keeps reminding me that my domain is about to expire. I have been to the linked page and tried to set renewal, but it seems to make no difference....
The help page on Domain Renewal says that renewal is the default if nothing is set, so I'm not really concerned that my domain will expire. But I am perplexed as to why I keep getting the reminder.  Am I doing something wrong?
Chris
edit: thanks for the merge-in Oldjim; i'm re-assured that the problem isn't just me!

Message my free domain will expire !!!

When I open member center I get a message that the free domain that + gave me after the spam problems will expire on june 23rd. I was under the impression that I had this for life. Could someone from + confirm this and inform me what I need to do next.
                                                              Thanks Martin

Hi Martin,
That was also my understanding - Could you possibly PM me a ticket number where you were asked to renew your domain?
I had a quick look at your account that associated with your Community Site login, but I couldn't find any tickets relating to a domain registration.

Hi James. It was not a ticket. It comes up in the place where  we are told a reply to a ticket is available. On the member center . When I click on it I get taken to the Domain name renewal page.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for that.  I've set your domain to automatically renew.  You shouldn't be charged anything for the renewal.

Hi James
The same domain expiry notification appears on my member centre page, I have tried clicking the renew button but it remains. The default setting is to renew the domain name automatically so I can't understand why it has appeared.

That's strange.
Your domain is already set to renew automatically on our backend systems aswell so I think it's pretty safe for you to disregard that message.

James,
I've just noticed the message on my account as well. The domain is already set to renew automatically.
Can you double check mine on the backend system please...

Cheers James.
Screen dump attached, clicking the [Update] it just takes you to the normal domain control page.
Hope that helps

I suspect that you would all gently cry yourselves to sleep every night.
