Well I'm blowed, I got the new Spanc report and they have accepted that they were wrong without any further argument. The system still officially fails because I need to install new regards but that's nothing and I accept it as correct. I am surprised but I did wipe the floor with them. Had my husband been alive he would have wanted me to be respectful, but I was free to let my feelings be known, loud and clear. Maybe that's the way to deal with the administration in France. Result well done

Well done, in certain situations you need to "show your teeth" it is a gamble but you had nothing to lose and a lot to gain.
I had a similar situation with our local lady Bank Manageress, I had been waiting to get a cheque from the Notaire from the sale of a house and he was dragging his feet clocking up interest on our money (when interest rates were good), I physically had to come over to collect the cheque from him and deposit with the bank, I was cutting it fine as we had taxes to pay and my wife had sent the cheques, so standing at the paying in desk, the bank manageress stuck her head of her office and called me over. I was holding a cheque for €100,000+, she started to dress me down as the Tresor had returned our cheque, I wasn't aware at that time it was an offence to offer a cheque from an account with insufficient funds but as she launched into me, I pushed the cheque across the table so she could see it, she stuttered but carried on, frustrated I took the "bounced" from her and told her to call the Tresor and tell them I was on my way to re-represent the cheque, amazingly she phoned them and explained, I paid my cheque in and walked next door with their cheque, they greeted me with open arms. Up until she retired she was always overly polite with me when I went in to the bank.

When we first arrived, I found a conciliatory approach worked wonders, but not anymore! Us Brits have all been tarred with the same unsavoury brush since Brexit, so the gloves are off

Well done you, maybe it isn't the accepted way but it has worked and no doubt been very satisfying/cathartic for you!

The problem with spanc is if they cannot see it they condemn it. Most of spanc are just ex water board workers who went on a short training course.
