Cheap Energy Club - out of date information!

Another MSEer has inadvertantly indicated some out of date information included on the MSE CEC regarding a new energy supplier known as Simplicity Energy

What makes the out of date warning even more strange is how you came about it, and how you reacted so quickly to bad news regarding this supplier, but not the effective rescission.

From what I can see, the supplier was issued with an automatic proposal to strike off 2 months thereafter on 19-Feb-2019 - this happens automatically when any limited company is late (after about 6 weeks) delivering up their annual accounts. It acts to focus the minds of directors.
Two days later, the supplier filed those accounts with companies house, and two days after that Companies House issued a further notice notice stating that as good cause has been shown as to why the striking off should not take place, no further action will occur. That was dated 23-Feb-2019, yet after almost a month later, you have still not updated the CEC, despite posting the bad news presumably within 4 days of such a notice being issued - or even 3 days if you go by the date the first notice appeared in the Gazette.

Biscuit Tin is quite right to ask this question.
I would add another, equally important question. If you genuinely believed that the supplier was due to be dissolved, why did you list them at all (even with a warning)?0
