Ratings and Reviews

Everything is slow except taking money!

I have sent multiple messages that have taken days to get delivered. Unfortunately with no job due to the Covid quarantine I can't afford to keep paying the outrageous FEES and costs of the phone calls. Messages are the cheapest options but they don't away send and if they say they do my loved one isn't always receiving them. Not receiving any "rejection" messages because I don't send inappropriate things, just trying to keep up with day to say life to keep both our spirits up being apart. It's very frustrating, this is a scary time to have someone incarcerated and not being able to connect with them when we're paying these fees and costs is ridiculous. My app doesn't have the "request call" option. I've sent money to the trust account that doesn't always get credited on his end as well and get told "sorry" after waiting on hold for an hour when I called. Now he is no longer receiving 2 free calls a week so communication is going to get less and less.

Why do y'all keep taking my money saying it's expired a couple months later?

Not happy with this app at all but unfortunately it's the only way I can communicate with my bf. I believe y'all have taken now almost $40 of my money saying "funds are expired" when I just put the funds in there?? Why not REFUND my money instead of taking it sayings it's expired?. Where do y'all have it written that funds expire? It's only been a month. Same thing happened before and when I email y'all not once have y'all replied to me out of the numerous emails I've sent. And when I call no one has answers for me and still nothing has been resolved. I am extremely unhappy with your service! How u can justify taking money that's hasn't been used yet and saying it's expired right after I deposit it is beyond me. And not right at all. The least u could do is notify us the funds are expiring and REFUND US OUR MONEY BACK. I won't stop until I have answers. This is messed up! You can't just take peoples money like that and think it's ok. Furthermore you need to update your app bc the facility my bf is at doesn't do messages anymore and y'all are still taking peoples money for that too and your call center can't figure out the problem. Well I figured it out for u. So frustrating having to deal with shady apps like this. My review will change once y'all fix this huge and important problem on your end. It's not right.

Can do a little better

I actually love the app because it allows me and my husband to stay connected through texts , pictures and videos. As the other reviews say , the messages are taking a week or 3-4 days to be delivered to me or him. I think if we are paying our hard earned money for these things it should be on the timely matter promised . Also I think it should let us receive pictures from our loved ones because of Covid . Due to covid we cannot cost our loved ones . So the inmates should some how be able to send a picture, I haven't been able to see my husband since he made it their nor our children. Don't get me wrong I'm very appreciative of the app but like I said the messages are not being delivered in a appropriate time and also seeing if we can get pictures from our loved ones .
