If you have heard about the 49-day rule and would like to work out when you can leave your fixed-rate energy tariff for free, then we have a couple of tools to help you.
All you will need to know is the end date of your tariff.
Many people choose to join a tariff a the end of the month, meaning your end date is likely to be the end of the month too.
If this is the case, then you can quickly use our table below to work out 49 days before the last day of each month:

| February 28th | January 10th |
| February 29th | January 11th |
| March 31st (not a leap year) | February 10th |
| March 31st (leap year) | February 11th |
