We have no relationship with jail’s phone service provider such as Securustech.net. Jail phone providers have exclusive rights to provide service to the jail. They usually own the phones and lines. So we work independently to get around their rates using our own system which saves you a lot of money.
We are totally legitimate and not a scam. We have thousands of satisfied customers that save money every day with all our services. These other companies make a lot of money from inmates and their families. Their huge jail calling fees include additional, hidden fees. The prisons also make a lot of money on these calls too. Prisons have control over the prison phone market and SecurusTech.net is a large company that can only survive if prison calling rates remain high. They don’t want people to use our Jail Calling Services because we cut into their profits and help save you money. We provide a reliable and legal way for people to save on prison phone bills - the only way to save.
No! This would be illegal.
SecurityTel is a service of SecurityTel, an FCC registered and regulated telephone company. Blocking of SecurityTel’s phone numbers is prohibited by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), and in violation of FCC rules and regulations.

Please look for this paragraph:
"We deny the Petition because we conclude that the precedent cited by Securus does not authorize the call blocking practice described in the Petition. As the Commission has previously found, call blocking is largely antithetical to the fundamental goal of ubiquity and reliability of the telecommunications network. We find that this situation is no exception. This Declaratory Ruling and Order furthers the Commission's goals of ensuring the integrity and reliability of telecommunications networks." So this applies to Securus.
Yes. Unfortunately, there is no way of avoiding these companies.
