Have you tried explicitly typing <C-h>?

Well, it may be, that Vim just receives <C-?> instead of <C-h>. Vim even
has its own method of fixing this by using the :fixdel command. Nowadays
one usually uses stty erase ^? or similar to configure the backspace
thing (or one configures the terminal directly what it should send for
backspace).
Long are the times gone, when I needed to fiddle with that ;)
So I would first try inside vim, what is actually printed when typing in
insert mode <C-V><Backspace> and from there we can continue.
Best,
