I have been in discussions with them for a few months to get 15 image added, they told me all of their images were going to be updated during Oct, but this has not yet been done and pleasantly, they didn't do what most companies are doing and blame covid, they are just very busy. Cheers Noel PS: I find hostus extremely reliable, especially L.A. The Dallas openvz node I'm on has had some issues in past 7 or 8 weeks on and off, but otherwise coming up on 7 years with them and no intention of leaving.
