Compare no exit fee energy tariffs near you

A no exit fee tariff is designed for flexibility: you can switch to another supplier without paying an early termination charge. This is useful if you want to keep an eye on the market and move again when a better deal appears.

EnergyPlus is a whole-of-market comparison service for UK homes. Enter your postcode to see available tariffs for your meter type and region, including no exit fee options where offered.

Tip: The “best” no exit fee deal isn’t always the lowest unit rate. Standing charges, payment method, contract type and any bill credit can change the true annual cost.

What you’ll see when you compare

  • Estimated annual cost based on typical usage
  • Unit rates (p/kWh) and standing charges (p/day)
  • Tariff type (fixed or variable) and contract length
  • Whether an exit fee applies (we highlight no exit fee options)

By submitting, you confirm this is for a UK home energy comparison. We’ll use your details to provide quotes and contact you about your comparison. You can opt out at any time.

Already in a fixed deal? A no exit fee tariff may be best when your current plan ends, or if your current tariff also has no exit fees. Check your latest bill or online account before switching.

Why choose a no exit fee tariff?

Flexibility if the market shifts

If new deals appear or you change your mind, you can usually move supplier without a penalty for leaving early.

Better for uncertain plans

Moving home, changing household size, or installing a heat pump/EV? No exit fee options can reduce “what if” risk.

Simple switching mindset

You can compare more often and act when the numbers work, rather than waiting out a long fixed term.

Avoid paying to leave early

Exit fees can add up per fuel. Choosing a tariff with no exit fees can keep switching costs down.

Still compare fixed vs variable

No exit fee doesn’t automatically mean variable. Some suppliers offer fixed rates with no exit fee—availability varies.

Good for smart meters & EV tariffs

If you’re experimenting with smart time-of-use tariffs, flexibility matters while you learn what suits your usage.

How no exit fee tariffs work (and what they mean)

An exit fee (also called an early termination fee) is a charge some suppliers apply if you leave a tariff before the contract end date. A no exit fee tariff typically means you can switch away without being charged for ending the contract early.

However, “no exit fee” does not guarantee the cheapest bill. The best option depends on your region, meter type, payment method and usage. That’s why it’s worth comparing rates and total annual cost, not just the absence of an exit fee.

Important: Some tariffs have no exit fee but may include other conditions (for example, a discount that ends after a set period). Always check the tariff details before you switch.

Switching with EnergyPlus: 3 steps

  1. Tell us your postcode and a few basics to see what’s available in your area.
  2. Compare tariffs by estimated annual cost, unit rates, standing charges and exit fees.
  3. Choose a deal and apply. Your new supplier handles the switch and your supply stays on.

What you’ll need

  • Your postcode
  • Rough usage (or a recent bill if you have it)
  • Preferred payment method (Direct Debit / on receipt of bill)

What to check when choosing a no exit fee deal

When you’re comparing no exit fee energy tariff deals in the UK this month, focus on the full picture. Here’s a practical checklist you can use on any tariff page.

Item Why it matters What to look for
Exit fee Determines whether you pay to leave before the end date. £0 exit fee for gas and electricity (if dual fuel).
Unit rate What you pay per kWh; drives most of the bill. Compare electric and gas separately; check if fixed or variable.
Standing charge Daily fixed cost, even if you use little energy. Lower standing charges can suit low usage homes, but check unit rates too.
Tariff type Impacts price stability and how/when prices can change. Fixed for certainty; variable for flexibility—both can be no exit fee.
Payment method Direct Debit vs on receipt can affect pricing. Choose what you’ll actually use; compare on the same basis.
Meter compatibility Some deals require a smart meter or certain meter types. Confirm if the tariff is available for your meter (standard, Economy 7, smart, etc.).

Quick decision rule: If two tariffs have a similar annual cost, a no exit fee option can be a safer choice if you want the option to switch again later.

Eligibility and regional availability (UK)

No exit fee energy tariffs are offered by a range of suppliers, but availability can vary. When you compare, the deals you see are influenced by:

  • Where you live (regional distribution costs affect pricing)
  • Your meter type (smart, prepayment, Economy 7 and others)
  • Payment method (e.g. Direct Debit vs pay on receipt)
  • Tariff preferences (fixed, variable, green options, time-of-use)

If you’re in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland or England, you can still compare—just enter your postcode to view what’s currently available for your address.

Common situations we can help with

  • Switching at the end of a fixed term to avoid rolling onto a higher rate
  • Looking for no exit fee dual fuel options
  • Comparing no exit fee electricity-only for flats
  • Checking whether a smart tariff is worth it for your usage

Moving home? You can still compare. In many cases you can switch after you move in (or set up supply first, then review tariffs once settled).

Common mistakes when searching for “no exit fee” deals

Choosing on exit fee alone

A £0 exit fee is helpful, but the annual cost still matters most. Compare standing charges and unit rates side-by-side.

Not checking both fuels

Some tariffs are no exit fee for one fuel but not the other. If you’re dual fuel, confirm gas and electricity exit fees separately.

Comparing the wrong payment method

Prices often differ between Direct Debit and other payment methods. Compare tariffs under the method you intend to use.

Ignoring meter type restrictions

Time-of-use or smart tariffs may require a smart meter, and Economy 7 homes can have different pricing. Enter accurate details when comparing.

No exit fee energy tariffs: FAQs

Are no exit fee tariffs always variable?

Not always. Many no exit fee deals are variable, but some suppliers occasionally offer fixed tariffs with no exit fees. The only reliable way to confirm is to check the tariff details during comparison.

Can I switch energy suppliers if I’m in a fixed deal?

Yes, but if your current tariff has an exit fee you may be charged for leaving early. Check your latest bill or online account. If your existing plan has no exit fee, switching is usually simpler.

What’s the difference between “no exit fee” and “no switching fee”?

“No exit fee” means the supplier does not charge you for ending the tariff early. “Switching fee” isn’t a standard industry charge, but sometimes people use it to mean the same thing. Always look for the stated exit fee amount on the tariff.

Will my energy supply be interrupted when I switch?

No. Your gas and electricity continue as normal. The change is administrative—your new supplier takes over the billing after the switch completes.

Do no exit fee tariffs exist for prepayment meters?

Sometimes, but availability can be more limited than for credit meters. Enter your postcode and meter details to see what’s currently available for your situation.

How do I know if a tariff is genuinely “best” this month?

Because prices can change and deals vary by region, the best approach is to compare using your postcode and usage. Focus on estimated annual cost, then decide whether you want the extra flexibility of no exit fees.

Still unsure what to pick? Start a comparison and choose a shortlist of two or three no exit fee tariffs with the lowest total annual cost for your household.
