If it was longer ago than that, then there was a 3rd error in not checking the tickets when received

What was the mistake in booking basic economy? if dates were fixed then why pay extra for a ticket with a high change fee? Many people buy inflexible tickets and quite intentionally so

If it is more than 24 hours ago, it is something to chalk to experiemce and just see what the cheapest fare an airline is offering for that journey ; maybe a disruption will occur that will impact the non refundable journey and entitle a refund
Over 24 hours unfortunately. The mistake was that I chose to buy basic economy because I thought the dates would change. I didn't account for the fact that I'm too dumb to keep my AM's and PM's straight.

I guess I can hope there is a delay of over an hour and I'm entitled to a refund for the whole shebang anyway?
