To receive phone calls from inmates in Franklin County, or to assist them in making phone calls to other people, follow these steps:
Franklin County Juvenile Detention Center uses the service of Lattice Inmate Phone Systems for phone communication between inmates and their friends and family.
There are two different types of phone accounts you can sign up and pay for:
- A PIN Debit Account is an 'inmate-controlled' prepaid debit account that allows inmates to place calls using funds maintained in the inmate's PIN Debit Account. The inmate can make calls to any telephone number. The inmate's family and friends can deposit money into an inmate's PIN Debit Account and you cannot control who the inmate calls, however the facility may have certain phone numbers blocked.
- PrePaid Collect calls are collect calls that are paid for in advance. The inmate's family and friends can deposit money to their own home or cellular telephone number, and the inmate will only be allowed to call your number with these funds. Funds deposited into your Prepaid Collect account can also be used to leave voicemail messages for an inmate.
Cost: The cost of phone calls ranges from $0.21 and $0.25 per minute.
