My concern was simply "can I be asked to pay for time I didn't live here, if they keep not billing me do I remain liable to pay for what I have used".

The other utilities and the council managed to bill the occupier and everywhere I lived previously the water company sent me an occupier bill the first time around. As it stands I haven't had and its no more my fault than it is theirs. I'm not willfully avoiding payment if I haven't been sent a bill.
