Where I am from one quarter in the phone and you can talk forever if you wanted to.
I think there is a time limit but honestly can't remember, but I do remember when pay phones were a dime, then they raised the rate to a quarter, then to 35 cents.

While at the mall recently, I noticed they still had two pay phones and it's 50 cents now! And I think there is a time limit.

My parents would use a calling card with the pay phones.
