Virgin Mobile Internet settings for andriod

Virgin don't really seem to be keeping up their website, in some places its states  Data on PAYG  is 30p a day in others is 50p , I see I am paying 50p.

They don't list generic  settings but these are taken from several android phone settings and seem to work ok for me on mine. Please dont sue me or blame me if they don't work for you..

Contact Virgin direct and see if you can get any sense out of them.. I couldn't.

You probably will want to make all these settings fit into one Profile or APN, thats what I did.
