Green Energy - now what?

So I'm with Green Energy who went bust in late September. I have had no communications from them at all. Their app no longer works and accounts have been removed from their website.
What do I do now, can I just switch to a new supplier? Don't I need information about my Green Energy account, I've found one bill dates August 2020.
EDIT: Just seen on the switch site that we will be moved to Shell. Should we be hearing from them soon?

You are now a customer of Shell Energy as it has been appointed by Ofgem as the Supplier of Last Resort for Green Energy's customers.
If you go to the Shell Energy website you will see that there is an information page for ex Green Energy customers. You may need to email Shell if it hasn't made contact with you.
Once your account with Shell is set up you have three options; one, remain with them on their SoLR tariff; two, switch to one of Shell's other tariffs, or, three switch away to another supplier.0 -
