U.S. Federal Prisons

U.S. Federal Prisons limit federal inmates to 500 minutes per month of phone calls. At the local calling rate of .06 per minute*, those 500 minutes would cost $30 per month. At the long distance rate of .12 per minute*, those same 500 minutes would cost $60 per month.

Telephone Privileges

The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) extends telephone privileges to federal inmates to help them maintain ties with their families and other community contacts. Ordinarily, the inmate pays for the calls; but in some cases the receiving party pays. Limitations and conditions may be imposed upon an inmate's telephone privileges to ensure they are consistent with the BOP's correctional management responsibilities. A notice is posted next to each telephone advising inmates that calls are monitored. Unmonitored calls to attorneys are permitted in certain circumstances. Third-party or other alternative call arrangements are not permitted; this ensures inmates do not have the opportunity to use phones for criminal or other inappropriate purposes.

3 ways to receive calls from an inmate at a Federal Prison

Collect Call (billed to your phone bill)
Prepaid Collect Call (prepaid account with ICSolutions)
Debit Call (Inmate purchases phone time or you fund the inmate's debit telephone account through ICSolutions) 

The debit call rates are standardized and are the least expensive. Local debit calls (calls from a federal inmate to a local number) are billed at .06 per minute (.90 for a 15-minute call). Long distance debit calls (calls to any number in the U.S. other than a local number) are billed at .12 per minute ($1.80 for a 15-minute call).
