Apparently Octopus won't accept customers for gas only? Is this correct? Is anyone with Octopus for just gas?

    Yes, I believe it is.
    I think you can be a gas-only customer by switching both fuels to Octopus then switching electricity away again.

    Octopus started offering gas only switches relatively  recently, can only be done engaging with them directly, phone advisors may not be aware of this.
