Ask for an address or phone number, give sample details and request repetition politely.

The idea

住所(じゅうしょ) means address: 住所を教えてください asks someone to tell you theirs. 電話番号(でんわばんごう) means telephone number. Say the digits individually, grouping them with pauses. もう一度お願いします politely asks the other person to repeat what they said.
