I feel ya, but there is worse: in France to cancel most services (mobile plan, bank accounts...) you need to send a registered mail. Suffice it to say, living abroad, there is a bunch of services I literally cannot cancel because of that. To close a mobile account, I recently had to cancel the credit card, then ignore emails from the debt collection agency they hired, for them to finally close my account.

Nonsense. Send your registered mail online with la poste. It has the same legal value. I'm not saying that requiring registered mail isn't shitty, but letting this go to debt collection is making things difficult for yourself with no good reason.
I’m glad they passed the law! Thank you, had no idea you could use La Poste to send registered mails online. As a busy parent, schemes like this definitely prey on people’s lack of time to never cancel.
