Your best bet is to pay it. I tried using the same arguement when one of my student loan bills was sent to my parents rather than me. Their responses was that the bill was a courtesey the contract/agreement is all that matters. TL:DR you can't claim that you didn't pay cause you didn't get the bill.

Pay. (No bill does not mean you do not owe it !) You woke up the sleeping giant by disputing it. (If you dispute, the credit agency will contact the creditor to verify)
