Oracle Free Tier - recreate ?

Hi all,
I had two Always free Tier VM's in my Oracle account.
I terminated one of them: it remains in my list as with status "Terminated".
However: when I try to create a new one, this new one is not in my free tier ?
What am I missing ?
Thanks

Oracle has non-free tier too, it'll not show the
Always Free-Eligibleicon when you are creating a VM.Its in Free Tier. Youre missing nothing.
Don't waste your time with Oracle's free tier. They will suspend your VPS and account anytime they want.
It's totally free. What do you expect?
100% uptime and < 1 minute support response time
it's good for testing even if it get suspended then again we here always has vm's which does nothing....
It's there just as a log item and will disappear sometime.
After first 30 days system won't let you create a paid VM before actively changing tier.
I still got 2 AMD and 1 ARM free tier on my account for more than 2 months.
It's free and it's good for testing stuff. Like compile apps for ARM (nginx, php...).
Which one you terminated and which are you creating?
x86 VMs do show up as "Free Tier" in the list of VMs, but ARM VMs do not show that. Even though both are free, unless you go over the amount of provided specs for ARM. But even doing that should not be possible unless you are still on the trial period, or upgrade your account to paid.
