6 months ago almost all calls from my daughter in Florida Gadsden Prison were going through. Now that only 1 in 10 goes through and the recording on both ends states: "the caller has hung up". None of the options from any resource when called give you a live person. Graft and corruption prevail at ...

Terrible customer service terrible payment system. The website and the app will not accept my payment. Payments have been cancelled by the merchant repeatedly. The only way to receive calls is to pay per call which costs $3 per call plus $2.36 for the first minute and 40 cents per minute thereafter....

they want 14.95 for 5 minutes, then they have the nerve to come on here with a computer generated response expressing how sorry they are for your experience and please call at blah blah blah. Well, that's nice and all, but why call a number when no one answers, and when they do, they are rude! SMH

What a garbage excuse for a company, heck, for HUMAN BEINGS. These people prey on the poor and charge EXORBITANT fees for the "privilege" of speaking to our incarcerated brother.

I was happy them at the beginning but that when you need a refund because loved one got out they took 4 weeks 6 calls to get my $25 refund. Outrageous. Look at my Cheesecakes at Facebook or Google them at Cheesecake by Thomas Pueblo Colorado. Here are some pictures.

What a scam of a company; charging customers $6+ for ANSWERING a phone call then $.50+ a minute, while almost all other companies charge $.21 a minute and no answering fee... You can never get a hold of anyone for customer service, and when you do get a hold of someone; good luck.

This company is a RIP off. $5 for a 15 minute local phone call. $25 minimum to add money to the account. They wont let a call go through if your balance is under $5. Other companies let the call go through with shorter minutes. Not this greedy company.
