I don't think there are any specific early exit fees for that product.

However, there is the Eon policy of not paying discounts on the final bill which I think means the loss of the possible 6% on the final bill for paying monthly by DD, and also another 2% for dual fuel.

So 8% discount loss on final bill, but a small amount at this time of year. I assume the savings by switching would far outwiegh such a small loss.
