Unable to access phpMyAdmin (free.fr)

Solved

Hello.
I have been managing a website on free.fr's personal pages for several years using the phpMyAdmin database.
Until this morning, I had no issues, but suddenly I can no longer connect to the database, and the connection requests in PHP are being refused.
Are there other users in the same situation?
Thank you.

my PHP:
Warning: mysqli::mysqli(): (HY000/2002): Connection refused

Same problem and Free replied to me this morning that it's a general issue and that it should be resolved by the end of the day. Still nothing at 7:50 PM.

Who and how do you contact at Free for personal pages?

I just called 3244 multiple times, and after trying to make myself understood (it's certain they don’t know what mysql and phpmyadmin mean at that number), I received a first response on Saturday, then yesterday, they told me that the technical service would call me back. So I'm waiting... But I think the simplest thing will be to host my sites elsewhere...
