Default Prices of GPRS in Virgin Mobile

Hi,
I'm looking for prices of the pocket gprs in Virgin Mobile.
I call to them but not helped me :/ (I don't have Virgin number, yet)

Into they www I found 0,5p per kB but it's to less information to me.
Is the transfer added up on the example I send 50bytes and receive
40bytes will I fit in 1Kb (sum of download and upload transfer) or in 2
Kb (up/download it separately)

Can anyone help me?


Regards,
Michel

It's combined so in your example it'll fit into 1K. But there's also a
charge granularity of 1p so in your example it would make no difference.

My mistake, 500 bytes download and 400 bytes upload then sum of them
it's 900bytes and price... 0,5p or 1p?

Is it possibly the subscription gprs? what price?

Regards,
Michel

900bytes transferred is less than 2k so it will cost 1p.
