Been with VPSLink quite a few months now, and I must say things are going well.
chuck@wine:~$ uptime
20:50:50 up 64 days, 51 min, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00
Last reboot I did myself for a software update. And the only other downtime before that was during their datacenter power failure. No biggy though – only a few hours down and they promptly credited my account. They are also taking measures to make sure this will never happen again. (Second datacenter on the other side of the U.S. work-in-progress)
Remember, my referral code is 9PDT2M for anyone interested in getting a recurring 10% on any VPS package they offer. It also credits my account a little for everyone I refer, reducing the cost of hosting this blog.

Back about a month ago I signed up for a VPS plan from WowVPS; it was a pretty simple plan that had the following specs:
12GB disk space
200GB transfer
192MB RAM
3 IP Addresses
All for 10.95$ USD. Not too shabby for its price, though there was a sale at the time. (And still is as of the writing of this post!)
The only problem I ever had with them was a small billing glitch that just required me to open a ticket and provide the PayPal transaction ID, and a control panel glitch caused by me reinstalling the VPS image. Their support team took care of these problems fairly quickly, so I suffered no loss.
All in all WowVPS is a great provider. I know there are plenty of negative reviews of them out there on the web, but after trying them for myself I found no problems with them.
So for service I give them a 8/10 and for support a perfect 10/10
