Dual or single fuel tariff?

Options
I had gas boiler and everything else running on electric (used to have storage heaters ..now removed so get night rates on electric as well as day rates) now boiler removed as well so no gas usage at all.
I have been on dual fuel tariff with outfox just paying standing charge for gas with zero usage of gas .  Now looking to switch provider... do I get electricity only tariff or do I have to pay an ongoing standing charge for the gas supplier so better to get dual fuel quote..don't want to run up an unexpected standing charge bill by getting wrong tariff?

    Hate to say this, but it seems you've made a huge mistake by getting rid of the gas boiler.  You're likely to have much higher bills and get a lower price when you sell the property.
    What are you now using for room heating and hot water?

    Why not get them to remove the gas meter, then you won't have to pay the standing charge?
