Welcome to the forum! Could you please list the refiner that you use or recommend one, as most will no longer deal directly with the public. Thanks.

In my experience you didn't get change back. The only time you would get coins back in the return was if your call didn't go through. For long distance it was a "use it or lose it" proposition. The operator would tell you how much for the first three minutes and you put that in, then they would try and connect you. If there was no answer you got your money back. If they answered the money dropped down into the internal box. If you hung up before the three minutes that was it no difference returned. Likewise if the operator interrupted to request more for the next three minutes you put that in and then it dropped into the internal box and your call continued. If you hung up before the end of the three minutes you lost what ever extra you had put in. Report this Post to the Staff

Find them on the web using their name followed by dot com, or Google/Bing them.. I have no interest fiancial or otherwise in the company whatsoever, I've been using them for years, and they've always been above board. Report this Post to the Staff
