There is no money-back guarantee — at all. Tietokettu's terms explicitly state no refunds for paid services; upon cancellation, the product simply runs until the next billing date. Unlike virtually every global competitor, there is no trial window. The only way to evaluate the service before committing is to test with the minimum monthly plan — and accept that the first month's fee is non-recoverable if you leave.
24/7 support is not included by default — and costs €100/month to add. Free-tier customers get support weekdays 09:00–16:00 Finland time only. Round-the-clock phone and ticket support requires Class 3 SLA at €100/month; intermediate Class 2 coverage (extended hours, weekends) costs €20/month. For a host advertising responsive customer service, this tiered structure is a significant undisclosed caveat.
VPS customers can have their service suspended without warning if traffic behavior triggers network protection. One Trustpilot reviewer reported their VPS was suspended after restoring a MikroTik CHR backup, with the control panel made unavailable and support unresponsive — despite MikroTik CHR being listed in the OS image selection.
