By Alex Watts


Families of Inmates in jails can avail inmate telephone service from several providers, such as Encartele, Global Tel Link, Offenderconnect, Paytel and several others. They also provide special features to protect the jail security regulations. Encartele offers a VoIP model of inmate telephone service. This helps towards a secure management and access of the data. The system is managed with an internet connection and is web based. The phone system is very reliable and the government agencies, such as the FBI, can have access to the telephone system at anytime from anywhere.

Calls can be restricted and monitored and recorded as well through Encartele. They provide both Collect calling and prepaid option. If the family has a telephone number that can accept calls from the inmate without any restrictions, collect calling can be opted for. The system checks out the validity, so that they may be able to bill the call before connecting the call. They check out whether the local telephone company can give the billing services and that there is no block on that number or that they have not exceeding the billing limit from the local telephone company.

The prepaid account option is for those families which don't have any limits on the calls and can also be used for a cellular number. The family has to pay a certain amount into the account and then the inmate can call them.

Inmate telephone service provided by Offenderconnect is also very convenient for family members of inmates.
