How do/would you handle this?
In this case, I'd expense it, since you're using up a personal resource. If the card offered unlimited free WiFi passes, then I wouldn't expense it, since it's not costing you anything.

The simplest solution in this case might be to pay for that business use wifi with a different card, and save the credits for your personal use.
