@ stetwin,
Well spotted with that Comet special, mate!
http://www.comet.co.uk/comet/html/cache/640_310441.html
Don't think you gonna find cheaper than that on eBay, plus there's a free delivery option on the site too.
Some sellers on eBay charge hefty delivery costs, so remember to take that into account as well.
I'd say go for that Comet special without a doubt, although I wonder if there are gonna be any Bank Holiday specials tomorrow on the net....
Still, Comet's price is pretty damn good...

@amawanqa
Yeah i'm glad i noticed it, i might hang on until the morning just to wait and see if any where else puts a cool offer/deal up thats cheaper/better but i think places will be hard pushed to beat that,

Oh and a few more question I wouldn’t mind you guys answering if yahs have time,

1). Are the facias detachable from the d750i or not?
2). Does it come with headphone as standard or am I going to have to buy them?
3). How old is this phone model?
4). Is it going to be out dated soon, and if so by what?

Well that’s it I think, and thanks again for all the help/advice ^_^

1. Nope, although the W550i has.
Replacement ones are on eBay, but few are genuine, and you'll need to know what you're doing to change them!
2. Yes.
3. approx a year ago. (mid '05)
Specs here:

4. The K800 is on the way, but nowhere near the shelves just yet. Also, it'll be quite a while ie. possibly next year this time (!) before the K800 will be available for similar money on PAYG...

An example is the older K700; still available on many online places even long after its replacement has been out, and probably the replacement's replacement for that matter.
For now, that Comet deal is probably the best you gonna get at the mo...

@10ten
What is the package your on now and how much do you spend over it a month, because they factor these in before they will price up your upgrade

@ stetwin,
Only further price reduction that I have seen this morning (so far) for the K750 is from CPW, who are now selling the K750 from £129.99 wbw £10 airtime on Orange, but as said before, their K750 phones are sim-free, unlocked PAYG offerings, as opposed to network-locked PAYG offerings from the other high street shops.

If you're sure to stay on T-Mobile PAYG for the forseeable future, I would say that Comet might still be the one for you to go for, judging by the requirements you initially stated. (dedicated T-Mobile handset ie. D750).
Obviously, the D750 will be network-locked though.
Your call; ...hope this info has helped.
