I resell Contabo in small quantities. Have had three prorated refunds approved this year, all on VPS, all annual prepay like haroldgsm. Average response time 5 days. The key is citing the PDF ToS specifically, not the HTML version. They seem trained to escalate only when you know the magic words.

Magic words. Twenty years and we are reduced to incantations. I have updated my ticket with the PDF reference and paragraph number. Will report back.

In Mexico I use Vultr for everything, never asked for a refund because my instances last months. But this info is useful, thanks pieter_rtm for the comparison table.

Does Contabo's Mumbai DC have the same routing issues haroldgsm saw, or was that specific to another location?

Different network, different upstreams. Mumbai is Airtel and Tata. Harold's issue was likely St. Louis or New York, both Cogent-heavy. Rotterdam to Nuremberg is clean for me, 12ms. Your mileage will vary by eyeball network.
