EDIT: The code is JUN1570

Still 55% off for me. Did they change the code?

I am running Centos 6.x 32bit on this launch.
My vps has a very slow disk IO compared to yours, mine is sitting at 28MB/s. IPs I received are listed by one lister. So far support has been nonexistent, ticket has been opened for more than 30 hours with absolute zero response. Not saying ultravps is a terrible company but so far my experience isn't good.
@TheOnlyDK I guess the future will show me the good or bad. My IO right now shows 631 MB/s. Might be the node. I will try to remember to follow up later. I do agree that 30 hours is bad especially when they state 24/7 support.
Edit: I did open a support ticket today and they replied in 3 hours. 30 hours sucks.
I replied to that same ticket and since then the replies are pretty fast. There must be something happen the first time. They checked the node, said everything was fine, but I was still experiencing bad IO. They changed my node and speed went up to 450MB/s. I have to say, overall it's very good for the dollar, but definitely has room to improve.
