We have a strange problem related to DNS services, maybe someone here have a 
clue what could be the problem.

We are running BIND 9.14.2 in several servers, ns1.qnet.fi, ns2.qnet.fi etc.  
Everything else works fine, but with one small operator (actually a 
mediahouse), we can not get any replies to DNS queries from them.   First 
thought it is a routing problem somewhere, but inquiring those servers with IP 
works, so can not be.

An example, the client domain is raimoasikainenoy.fi.

Then testing from our network again, inquiring from ns.kpk.fi or 
ns.datatower.fi not working, our server cannot resolve those names.  But when 
inquiring with IP 193.184.54.212 (ns.datatower.fi):

So what can it be??   To every other operator/network our inquiries work fine, 
have been working 25 years :)  But only to this "operator" not.  Our servers 
cannot resolve the name of their servers, even it can do it when inquiring 
their servers directly by servers IP addresses.  Their NS records in the 
fi-root look little suspicious, like some of the servers lacked glue records, 
but not sure about that.
