I signed up for their always free VM, created it, then forgot about it for a few months
They terminated my account for no reason and refused to answer my support request as to why this happened. Multiple agents said "maybe you violated ToS, we can't do anything, have a good day" -- not possible considering I never used the account and there wasn't a data breach
Basically I'd assume they terminate free accounts at random to save money (basically "free" is a scam), or their AI model for determining fraud is broken and you could easily have your account removed for no reason
I tried Oracle Support and I'm locked out of accessing my account there, phone support won't help, etc so I have no options left besides creating a new account, which I won't do because this will likely just happen again

In the case you want 20€ credits upon Hetzner account registration:

I would not recommend OCI under any circumstances
