Virgin Mobile compared to other EE-based operators

How does VM compare in terms of (3G) data rates when compared to other EE-based network operators? I am hoping that there is no difference but VM might have their own (data) network that EE hands off to so in theory the end user experience could be different.

The coverage and call quality should be the same as EE, T-Mobile, Orange etc. as they all shared the same mast infrastructure (I think) but the one area that I can see possible differences is the data service.

There is talk of VM adding 4G later this year for consumer customers but no news yet if this is an extra cost or if it will be a free upgrade (like 3).

Given that VM charge customers £157 more for buying an iPhone 6 that Apple does, I am doubting if 4G will be a free upgrade
