If that's all you've used it for, the volume of data shouldn't have cost £150!
Get back to VirginMobile and ask for some figures!

I believe that MacDonalds and JD Wetherspoon pubs now offer free wifi, tho' you may need to sign-up or buy something first. Plus there are loads of small shops, cafes and pubs that offer free wifi as an incentive to use them.
The problem is that finding them is not so easy!
That's why 3G (ie. true wireless via your phone or USB 3G modem) has taken off so fast -- it's available (almost) everywhere, (almost) all the time, for a fixed, or at least predictable, cost.
