Why are unsecured term deposits in EUR yielding lower than a simple overnight deposit at the ECB ? Isn't it supposed to be the opposite ?

The 3 month Euribor just broke -0,50% a few days ago, why was it so low for so long ?

I assume there must a quota on the ECB deposit facility ? What stops eurozone banks from using the deposit facility to a greater extent if that isn't the case ?
