Greatest Phone Call for Inmates

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.

The family can choose the prepaid option by setting up this account to receive calls from their incarcerated loved one if the facility is serviced by Public Communication services. Such a prepaid account allows the inmate to call the family even if these calls had be previously suspended or restricted on account of various reasons. The local billing company may have not billing contract or the call limit might have been reached. In such a case, PCS prepaid option allows the inmate to make calls to the family within 15 minutes of an account being set up and the amount deposited in prepaid option of PCS prepaid Daily Dial.

Collect call services is another option for inmates in jails, where he can place calls to numbers that have got the sanction of the jail authorities. The called party receives the bill every month from the phone company. However, the inmate cannot place calls to all numbers, as hospitals, business and commercial institutions, and cell phone numbers are barred from being called in this option of Public Services Communication.
