Turns out he was with a company that went bust, and Shell Energy took over the supply. As I am the homeowner, they put the account in my name (off Land Registry).

Do you have evidence that that is what happened?

I ask, as that is not how the Supplier of Last Resort process works...

The gaining supplier is provided with the customer details that were already being used by the failed supplier, so it would suggest that your 'tenant' may not have had the original account is their name in the first place...
