When I moved from a gas-house to a non gas-house years ago the final gas bill went astray
so by the time British Gas caught up with me they were threatening to cut my gas off.
Intrigued, I ignored the nasty letters and waited for the gas man to arrive.
When he did, it was obvious that we had no gas so he frowned and scratched his head a bit until I offered him the £20 or so I owed.
He accepted it, wrote me a receipt and scuttled off. Looking back, he was probably relieved to have avoided whatever unpleasantness is involved in cutting off people's gas.
