whatsapp Notifications via CallMeBot Experiencing Intermittent Service Disruptions
users of Home Assistant integrations relying on CallMeBot for WhatsApp notifications are reporting intermittent disruptions in service, potentially linked to usage quotas and payment requirements. Reports surfaced on November 21, 2025, detailing failures to receive notifications despite up-to-date Home Assistant installations and accomplished direct API calls.
the issue appears to stem from CallMeBot’s tiered messaging system. Several users indicate that after exceeding a free message allowance, the service requires payment to resume functionality. One user shared experiencing a complete cessation of messages after exhausting their quota, while another reported a temporary resolution after “resuming” service for several days with a paid account. A related issue documented on GitHub highlights similar problems with the Whatsigram Messenger integration, suggesting a broader pattern of quota limitations impacting WhatsApp notifications. Users experiencing issues are advised to check their CallMeBot account status and consider a paid subscription to maintain consistent service.
