How to address the envelope
Copy it exactly onto the envelope
Address the envelope to 88 Colin P Kelly Jr St, San Francisco, CA 94107. Everything on those lines matters for the sorting machines, so nothing is abbreviated by hand.
Add the return address
Your name and postal address go top-left on the front (or the back flap). If the letter cannot be delivered it comes back to you, which is itself evidence of the attempt.
Ask for certified mail
Take the letter to a post office counter and ask for certified mail: you get a postmarked receipt and a delivery record. Keep the tracking number and check it until it shows delivered.
Keep the records
The postmarked receipt, the tracking record and your signed copy of the letter are the set that proves the request.
The cancellation letter
The request itself is short: Github is asked to end the account, stop the charges and confirm in writing, with the account email, the plan or product name and the invoice or order number from your latest receipt where the brackets are.
