should I be worried about it?

Only if you're worried about it suddenly being a freewheel in both directions in the middle of a commute and leaving you stranded.

Is it easily serviceable? It's usually just a sticky mess inside causing the pawls to get stuck, and needs cleaning and regreasing. Or just replacing.

Not sure, it's a shimano one. It's only been on the bike a few weeks.

I had similar from a shimano, probably one of the the pawls sticking, but bad after such a short time.

I'd recommend spending more than a tenner on a free wheel, that way if it's faulty it's worth actually sending it back! :)
