Blount County Detention Center Emailing An Inmate
Send an Email or Text to an Inmate in the Blount County Detention Center
Our listing names NCIC for electronic messages at the Oneonta jail. Confirm with detention staff at 205-625-4133 that messaging is active before buying credits.
NCIC setup needs the Oneonta booking ID, character for character, and officers can review whatever you send.
Letters still work. Our Blount mail page covers what may go in an envelope.
Buy message credits from NCIC, which displays the charge before a message is sent.
