Replacement for BT Openzone?

I am just in the process of moving from BT to Virgin for broadband ('up to' 50 Mb beat 'up to' 20 Mb with 'if you are getting 2 Mb we think that is good').
I use BTOpenzone, £5 per month for wireless access outside the home when there is no free access available. However I think I lose that when I lose BT Broadband.
Does anyone know if Virgin have anything similar? Or is there an alternative I can use to avoid paying huge charges in hotels, when stuck in Starbucks for a couple of hours etc.
Thx.

Anyone can purchase air time vouchers to use at BT Openzone hot spots, I'm with BTB and get 250 minutes free per month ( not £5 ) but that may be because I'm on a unlimited BB plan, VM dont have a network of Wi-Fi hot spots0
