Doesn't matter.  All POP or Zelle needs is that at some point you
responded and directed them to send the funds to your account.  I don't
know most of the routing numbers/accounts of folks to whom electronic
funds are sent.  But the recipient at some point tied their phone number
(land line, cell phone, satellite) to their account.  At that point they
don't need to respond any further.  Though they may get a notice that
the transaction happened.

Now, if I don't have that but I do know your address, well, as I said,
my CU will slap a stamp on the envelope and mail that check out to them
at no cost to me.
