Hi I'm already with British gas, but thinking of taking out the latest tarrif, I'm not in my last 50 days and can't find anywhere if I would be charged the exit fees? And also would I need to cancel the free boiler cover or would that happen anyway as new tariff has that free anyway

    All the British Gas tariffs I can recall which applied exit fees only did so if you switch supplier (not transfer to another tariff provided by British Gas)
    - but worth double checking the terms and conditions of your existing tariff to be sure that applies for you.

    In regards the free boiler care, I'm pretty sure it always says you are only eligible for that if you don't already have it.

    There is no exit fee for changing tariff with British Gas. I've done it several times. Your free cover (although it's not much in the way of cover) will continue and the period will be extended to the end of your new contract.
