Has anyone with an EDF E7 fixed tariff been contacted about their new rates under the EPG

Hello all.

Hopefully someone will be able to advise.

I fixed with EDF for two years in May 2022 on an electricity only E7 tariff.  My usage is 6617 kWh per year with 80% night 20% day split.  I'm in London.

Current fixed tariff is

Day: 39.97
Night: 21.09
SC: 32.23

SVR under Energy Price Guarantee 

Day: 44.82
Night: 15.94
SC: 33.25

I currently pay £147 per month.  However, I've worked out that I would only pay £130 under the new SVR.  I've spoken to EDF who confirmed that it looks like my fixed tariff is over the EPG and they would contact me about this.  However, I have heard nothing, and they cannot give me a timeframe for contacting me.  

They did tell me that I could move to the SVR without penalty (until November), but I am reluctant to do this until I have had confirmation of the new fixed rates.  However, I am conscious that I could be paying more than I need to while waiting for EDF to get their finger out.

Is my thinking right that my current fixed rate is due a reduction?  And has anyone in a similar situation had any contact about a reduction in their fixed rate from EDF?

Thanks in advance.
