May be wrong but my understanding is it's them or nada as it's their property. Assuming it's a functioning meter. We had similar situation and have left it (thankfully in an under-stairs cupboard, but just on an inconvenient wall).

They can charge what they like because they are the only ones that can do it sadly.

Seems a lot..
Had ours moved last year about a metre and a half total distance, from inside kitchen cabinet to an external box. Was just under £800 which included them digging up the driveway for the box/gas connection and making good again. And don't think there was a charge for application. But was different gas board so maybe not comparable

Might be worth changing supplier to one that does it for cheaper.

@greeno
Anyone had a gas metre moved?
Trying to get an old one in my kitchen lowered about 150cm so it sits below the worktop instead of right in the middle of the wall.
The gas board (Cadent) just said it’s about £450 to submit an application then about another £2k for them to move it.
Was hoping it would be far less….
