Collect jail calls and phone cards?

a new system was put into place last november (with my phone company), stating that, ulness you set up a pre-paid account, you could not receive collect jail calls. my boyfriend has not been able to get through to me since, thus, i was wondering if a pre-paid phone card would allow him access?

Collect jail calls and phone cards?
What can those who run the jails and prisons be thinking by making it so difficult for inmates to maintain contact their loved ones!? Inmates with friends and family support are more likely to survive prison and less likely to be violent while in prison and after they are released.





Of course, because of the horrible overcrowding and the gangs, all inmates and guards are in danger of violence regardless of their efforts to avoid it. It's understandable that phone calls are recorded and can be tracked to phone numbers.





There are sometimes newspaper articles reminding Californians that inmate families, who can often least afford it, are paying for the lucrative contracts between the prisons and telephone companies.





There is little your boyfriend can do from inside. Please keep trying to find a prepaid card or whatever it takes that allows him to call you. It will make huge difference in his life. Good luck to you both.
