Thank you for your advice in advanceYes, for someone in that situation there's no benefit from being on an E7 tariff and it will be costing you a bit more than a single rate would.Contact Octopus and ask to change to the single-rate version of your tariff.(Although, if you have a hot water tank, it might work out cheaper over the summer (when you're not using space heating) to stick with E7 and heat your water at night.)N.
