PAYGO Blackberry 8520 how to setup for Virgin

Merry Xmas to All

I Purchased an unlocked paygo blackberry 8520, used my 30 day sim (with Internet) from virgin. contacted virgin to setup and was told to send a text to them with the word "Yes" received a text to say your mobile now has access to use BB services.

Was also given a lot of setting to set up the phone but the nice Lady @ Virgin, didn't know where the settings were on the phone as their own phones have preloaded apps for the info.

The settings were

Access point Name

APN - goto.virginmobile.uk
Proxy - leave Blank
port - leave Blank
user - user
password - leave Blank
Server - Leave Blank
The above setting I believe are under Options-Advanced settings- TCP/IP is this correct?

setting for MMS
MMSC - http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk/8002
MMS Proxy - 193.030.166.002
MMS Port - 8080
MMS Protocole - WAP2.0
MCC - 234
MNC - 30
Authentication Type - pap
APN Type - mms

settings for internet

MMSC - http://mms.virginmobile.co.uk/8002
MMS Proxy - 193.030.166.002
MMS Port - 8080
MMS Protocole - WAP2.0
MCC - 234
MNC - 30
Authentication Type - pap
APN Type - mms


The MMS & Internet settings I believe are settings in the service books and are attached to the host routing tables, which has no entries. the service books can not be edited (or I can't find how to edit or create a new One).

I may be wrong in the location, so any help would be greatfully received.

Happy NewYear
