Scammers
Took two deposits and claimed to refund both of them, despite never doing so. Asked for details (dates, proof, etc.).
They ignore most emails, they're dishonest and you will be scammed by them if you use them. I'm referring to securus.com, the company that facilitates communication with prisoners.
- Virtually non-existent
- Impossible to reach
- Horrible customer service
Preferred solution: Full refund

Get screwed
I am having an issue with emessaging on securus and have written to plenty of sevurus site but now it is very troublesome because I have been a long term jpay user and had to get used to securus and now when I had an issue of not being able to log in and called to see why my troubles started of not being able to use the emessaging so I had been told on 08/18/24 it would take 15 days and then they say 30 days. it gets very frustrating plus also since I can't write directly to the facilities where I have friends and family incarcerated I don't even know if they are receiving my mail unless I call the facilities where they are incarcerated and I have done that a couple of times but that shouldn't be what we do because every day there has been error issues or system issues and there's no way one company should have the monopoly on how we communicate with our loved ones who are incarcerated when they can't handle all the issues due to all the states they have their system in and now with so many countries they added to their system so many people will be experiencing more issues so when will we be allowed to write and mail our on letters to the main facilities where our loved ones are incarcerated?
I am so tired of my friends and family thinking I don't want to communicate with them. something has to change.
I will keep writing to others to find out what is going to get done or how they will fix this problem.
Sincerely,
Tina

Text blocked
My inmate's texts are blocked and he can't message out and I can't message him. I had 40 texts messages paid for still on my account.
Preferred solution: His texts messaging unblocked.
Ontario, California
No contact to speak to a live person
My reason for this complaint is they make it difficult to talk to a live person.
It is impossible to get the help you need speaking only to an automated system. Theres also multiple charge's I have occurred that doesnt makes sense, and appear high according to what the rates say on the call during my call with one of their covered facilities. I cant get it resolved or asked the needed questions without speaking to a live individual.
User's recommendation: Contact number for customer service

Can't complete a phone call
Customer service here treats law abiding citizens like they are incarcerated inmates. Not worth the time or effort. If they go bankrupt, I'll throw a party.
- Customer no-service
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: Go elsewhere

You have to go through this website to get a person
The system is down which life doesnt allow for. When you are trying to get in touch with your loved one and the system keeps kicking you out and you have to find a number to talk to a real person for them to act as if they are oblivious to the system failure yet in the same breath when she inputted the information wrong let you know there are issues with the the system is crazy.
Just fix it its been hours and to tell me its only one phone number and I called 3 get it together. I liked it when it was just JPay now they have added these people and things have took a turn for the worse
- No way to contact and talk to actual agents
- Was better when it was just jpay
User's recommendation: There is none this is what we have come to just try to be patient cause they will make you want to flip your lid
Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Awful service
They have had a known IT problem for days. When an inmate calls, the Securus system is not recognizing we are pressing on to accept.
They have no idea when they will fix it.
What is really cruel is that they are not telling the facilities that this is happening.
It is nearly impossible to speak with a real person. When you do get one, they are ridiculously unhelpful!!!
User's recommendation: Be vocal about these awful people who are ripping these guys off!

Refund for not able to use services
I was going to try to contact someone on jail.
They charged 2.99 plus another 2.99. I looked on there different services, I could not find the person or the jail on their system.
I wanted a full refund.
They say they only refund one one the 2.99$ fees but not the other.
Their chat system is useless, emailing them is useless with do not reply, customer service numbers are useless with there AI push this number for this selection, but no way to contact anyone for refunds or complaints.
It is complete organized fraud, who ever designed that crap should be shot in the head, they knowingly fraudulent, similar to dealing with door dash and tiny xu crap attacking drivers with app issues while driving.
So many foreigners stealing people's money be it atm, gas pumps, and pos systems in stores this company is no different. Crooks all crooks
- Are crooks
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: do not use this system they are crooks
Phone calls
My bf is in the hole and for the past 3 days my phone wasn't even getting any phone calls from him.l on my end Then on the 4th next day when he is out of his cell for an hr Ii finally received a phone call. So I answered it and it as I'm answering I'm pushing number one to accept the call and it will let me set the call he got back to back and it won't let me push one except the call this phone service is a joke. You buy stamps six stands for $2 then the service fee is $3.40 just to just to the tax on $2 device stamps to joke
Preferred solution: To fixed their phone service.. I am missing calls that I don't even received them when I do I can't even accept the call cuz when I pushing one it won't acknowledge that I'm pushing number one

Sercurus is the WORST -0 stars
They are always down for entire days, they are unbelievably expensive, they claim to be a International company now but only have 1 service center in Dallas Texas so if they have issues the whole company shuts down, THEY ARE AWFUL and a monopoly we need more options than sercurus.
User's recommendation: NEVER

Exactly I just got ripped off for $50. I donโt even know what I paid for and canโt get anybody on the phone and the AI wanted to charge me to respond to my question.
