I have not had any problems using Virgin in Europe when I was on Pay As You Go but when I wanted to travel to Mexico and the Caribbean PAYG was not supported. However by opting to pay by Direct Debit (still on PAYG) the number of countries available increased from about 40 to around 140.

Also, as a bonus calls and texts were cheaper as well. All my family are on Virgin and I find their price structure for PAYG to be the best for my needs. We were all on Virgin long before ant NTL/TW merger was thought of and I hope that further down the line there will be some benefits for existing customers as there are now for the new Quad package people.

ps. Should have mentioned you still need a Triband or Quad band phone for some of these countries.
