If voice during phone conversation become gibberish, how to ask a person to repeat last words? I'm living in Cyprus and all local people when speak English just use 'tell me' for this. It this a correct way?

There is already a post on this: How to politely ask someone to repeat what they said after they've already repeated it once? This might help you.– zeemanJan 31, 2019 at 16:43

What is "correct" is a matter of etiquette and local convention. If that is what people say in Cyprus, it must have some degree of acceptance in Cyprus; in Canada, it would be rather confusing or rude.– chosterFeb 6, 2019 at 5:15

It is correct but doesn't sound good while speaking to someone. Using "pardon me" or maybe "sorry, come again" can be really polite and a good way to ask to repeat their last sentence.
