The Esteemed Moderator writes, describing various forms of telephonic
refunds (coins by mail, small checks, pseudo-checks marked "Pay to the
Order of The Telephone Company", credit chits).

None of this has ever happened to me here in NYTel land.  When I
request a refund here from a genuwine pay phone (I don't use any other
kind), I get asked "Do you have a New York Telephone phone?"  I say
yes and supply the number of my home phone.  I then get a credit on my
bill.  The credit appears as a single line on the bill aggregating all
such coin-refund credits I have accumulated over the month.
