All my previously-linked accounts' access have now expired 

Do I need to delete these accounts and re-add them, or simply click on "reconnect" in order to get the points ?
Thanks

You should be able to reconnect most of them. Some may fail, in which case delete and re-add. Reconnecting is generally easiest and doesn't always require you to re-authorise with your bank.

I have just pressed reconnect/reconsent on the four or five of mine that has gone through the cycle.

Site is updating at mo though.

@keiran just reconnect

I found that when I had to reconnect/reconsent my expired accounts (they all fell off within a day or so of each other) they failed in one way or another until I deleted enough of them until I only had 9 rewards to redeem. They went through eaily and then I added 1 straggler and had no rewards left to redeem

Makes sense.  I had already deleted the links to my excess accounts, so I only had ten to refresh.

Is there a notification (email?) when the account connections expire?

I've been getting this message since yesterday afternoon when trying to add an account. They could obviously still be doing maintenance but it's been longer than a few hours. Anyone else getting it?

I've not logged in recently, but last month on Saturday 22 April when I tried logging in around 10am saw the same error. See my post on this same thread:

I kept trying throughout the day (Saturday) at various times. Afterall, the message does say 'should not take more than a few hours'. Not a sausage until Sunday (the next day) at 5am when I tried it the system was up and running again. i.e. was able to login.

Judging by the posts from other forumites it seems this month the maintenance has overrun. Unless of course, last month the maintenance started on Friday and continued until Sunday morning. 

Anyway, it's clear that updating the system has taken more than a few hours repeatedly (back to back). YouGov should change the message!!
