Yeah, well be careful of Hetzner, I used to love them but I just migrated away. They just shut all all of our VMs over a $36 billing dispute. (~30 VMs we were using for our CI/CD pipeline) We provided them evidence with records of the payment in totality from our bank, they refused to look at it / discuss the dispute, even when we were communicating urgently and just ultimately shut off all our access. We're on Scaleway now.

Hm. Hetzners billing stuff is highly automated - but they usually give you about a month to pay your bill if the credit card payment failed for some reason.

Their customer service is surprisingly hostile. I still use them tho since I'm using them for low stakes stuff

You migrated away over 36 euro? 36? Not 3600 or 36k or 360k? Thirty six? Thirty. Fucking. Six? A dinner for two at a mid restaurant?

Fuck me. It cost you more to migrate.
