npower exit fees
Regarding npower’s Terms and Conditions, I think it wholly unreasonable that in order to avoid exit fees I must cancel my tariff within 14 days of 01 April 2017 or within 7 days of receiving my Welcome Letter (dated 04 April 2017), whichever is later, when npower did not start supplying my fuel until 21 April 2017, the date that I discovered the anomalies on my account and raised my complaint. I could not know the standard of npower’s service before the effective date of 21 April 2017 and why I believe the exit fee clause is unfair and unjust.

Standard consumer contract regulations. What are these "anomalies" ?0

exit fee does not apply, all suppliers should now allow you to leave up to 49 days ahead of your tariff's end date without incurring a penalty

The 14 day 'Change your mind period' is a mandatory minimum on many contracts, and the 14 days start the day you say Yes, I want that, which is why your n'power supply only began when it did.
If you post the problem/s you are having with n'power, some one will help you.
NOTE
Browntoa's comment about 49 days only applies to the period at the end of a Fixed Term contract, not the beginning0 -
The anomalies refer to inaccurate meter readings listed on my account - not the readings I gave them.
I have had my npower exit fees waived by npower after escalating my case via Resolver.
However, moving to e-on is proving hard work too as my website account does not show the electricity reading I gave on 13 June 2017 and was unable to accept my gas reading today!
Online = ongoing problems which have to be chased up to get rectified. Grrrrrrrrrr!0
