We recommend that inmates talk to the counselor at their facility and try to find out. You can also try to make an arrangement so that only a percentage of your commissary funds are taken, instead of all your funds take at one time.

These three things will determine how much an inmate phone call will cost: Where you are located; Where your inmate is located, What type of phone number you have.
