Great Phone Call for the Incarcerated

By Elmer Richardson


PCS or Public Communications Services is one of the inmate phone service providers who give this service to inmates in order to stay connected with their near and dear ones. Public Communications Services have been providing this service for the past twenty years and have some cheap options following jail stipulations.

The family and friends of the inmates are serviced by an automated online service provided by PCS and the family can accept calls from inmates in participating jails. There are some very reasonable and easy options offered by these inmate phone service providers in the form of collect calls, prepaid calls and debit cards.

In the case of a debit card, the inmate can create a debit phone account from the jail commissary and he has to pay in advance with his debit card. It can be set up for free and then the inmate is free to cal any numbers like hospitals, business or commercial numbers, international numbers and even cell phones with the help of this debit card account at Public Communication services. This option is very safe when compared to prepaid or collect calls and it is also a reasonable offer with discounts given to many facilities.

You can also be availed by a prepaid option where the family can pre-pay for incoming inmate calls from any facility that is participating in Public Communications services plans. You can sign up for this even in case there is a collect call restriction made by your local phone provider or if you have exceeded the collect call limit. In some cases, the local telephone company does not have a billing contract with the facility, in which case this option can be availed. Within fifteen minutes of depositing your money into the PCS prepaid Daily Dial, you can start receiving calls from the inmate.

The collect call option is also offered by these inmate phone services providers, PCS, whereby the inmate can call only numbers that have been given permission by the jail commissary. The bill is sent to the called party at the end of the month through the phone carrier company. There are limits to these collect calls, as the inmate cannot call business or commercial numbers, hospitals or cell phones.
