Always heard seven as εφτα in Cyprus - may be there is another prononcation allowed?
Both επτά and εφτά are correct, with the former possibly a bit more formal for official documents and the latter more common in everyday speech.
In a "type what you hear" exercise, you have to type exactly what you hear -- if the voice says /epta/, you have to type επτά; if it says /efta/, you have to type εφτά. Regardless of what you personally would say.
A bit like "aluminum" versus "aluminium" - both are correct English words but they are pronounced differently and in a "type what you hear" exercise you would have to use the version the voice says and not the alternative word with the other pronunciation.
Both εφτά and επτά are used and are both correct.
