Reviews and Complaints
Horrible at everything
I have tried their emessaging service and they're ridiculously priced. About 80 to 85 percent of the time you or your loved one never get your messages though they are marked as sent and we are still charged for them at a rate of 44 cents a message.
Some jails or prisons are 50 cents or more a message. If you send a picture or and e card they require you to add a message of some sort and attach the picture or card to it thus charging you double. On weekends no messages go through at all then on Monday and tuesday you get 3 and four days worth piling in at you.
The amount of stamps on you account will mysteriously go down without having sent a message or shared stamps with anyone. They have you though because there are no other options so we send our money and continue to get ripped off.
- We have no other option expensive unreliable
Preferred solution: Someone else to take there contract or give the consumer other choices.
User's recommendation: Use as little ad possible
They ain't no good .
Boyyyy boyyyy I can't stand these low dow dirty rude stealing stanky lying ppl. If yall know like me yall better watch yall accounts cause they go back on yall pending transactions and add more money then yall spent . Then got the nerves to be smart about the shhh like yu suppose to be dumb , if I was close or knew who they was, I bet that ho wouldn't fix her mouth to even say ma'am or sir again.
Preferred solution: Full refund
User's recommendation: They low down and dirty and steal your money.
Dallas, Texas
Stolen Money
They dont deliver emails to the facility, then claim the facility denied them. When the facility denies an email, the incarcerated citizen is notified. They have stolen quite a bit of money this way, from myself and others.
Whats worse - they do not have a working customer service number with HUMANS you can speak to for a resolution,
User's recommendation: We have no choice. But advocate for BETTER SERVICES from these thieves!

Resolved: Purchased phone number for my inmate doesn't work
Company fixed the issue and I have been provided with apology.
Got automated assistant. Down for scheduled maintenance.
A love person is not available to help me with my problems! Not surprised this tends to happen alot.
It would be ok if the automated chat could help. In this case it doesn't.

Wasn't able to have my video visit
My little brother is in prison in Alabama. I paid for and scheduled a video visit with him.
But because his visit was scheduled on a non working kiosk in his facility, we were not able to have our visit. I have tried calling securus to no avail.
I can not speak to a machine and I never reached a live agent. I lost my money AND the visit.
