No.

as said above, you only get access to these on a contract or if you have pay and go mobile broadband

Ive always wondered about this. I have pay monthly contract (which includes this) but what sign in do I use :S

If you're on an O2 contract you should get it free but you can't just enter your number and login. IIRC you have to send a text message to an O2 number which adds your actual mobile number details to an access list (Which takes an hour or so to become active) before you can actually go roaming. Works well on my Playbook though and when it doesn't, 3G tethering FTW.

Apparently I get this with Voda, but I have NO idea about how to use it. LOL

For iPhone, go to the My Vodafone app's Wi-Fi Finder and click or tap 'Set up' - it'll guide you through the set-up process. For BlackBerry, click the Menu button and choose 'Setup'. Once it's all set up, the My Vodafone app will automatically connect you to any BT Openzone hotspot that's in range, as long as you have BT Openzone UK Wi-Fi access included in your pay monthly price plan. If it's not included in your plan, you'll have to pay BT Openzone each time you want to access their Wi-Fi hotspots.

Cheers Tomo, how do I know if I've got it included? Pretty sure I do but want to check.

send the word "wifi" to 2121 and it will reset your mac adress for the wifi within 60min and all you will need to do is enter your mobile number when you connect.

Thanks, didn't realise there's an Android app for it. Will make it a lot easier, just need to find a hotspot that works now.

I've had issues connecting since I upgraded to my iPhone 4, guess this is why, I knew it was locked by mac but just never got around to looking into how I would reset it, cheers.

if the bolt on, sim card or phone is changed, this is what is needed to be done
