    OK, your supplier is British Gas, as previously advised.
    What exactly makes you think BG do not supply you?
    If you're in no hurry, just wait for them to send a bill to "The Occupier".
    PS. Isn't that a pub?

    You can usually get through to BG via live chat...eventually. Just have something else to do on your computer and leave the chat window visible while you're in the queue.

    Is this a business rather than domestic supply ?
