Since May this company Pigeonly has gotten me for 79.99. Not counting the 1 dollar they got my card number for. Saying my Inmate could call for a monthly fee. I have never received any service from them. But the still continue to randomly charge me. 4x in one month. Will not give any refund when called?

I had a friend transferred to Fulton county Jail in Atlanta so I set up this account pigeonly.com. He said I got $10 off or a $10 credit and I could also email or submit that to a friend or loved one of the inmates in which I did try and none of that worked I never got any of the credit then I was promised I then had to set up an account for phone time with the inmate had to pay $12.99 for the phone privilege and that didn't even put minutes on the phone as I was instructed it would then end up paying another $25.99 for a month of service for a phone number that the inmate doesn't even have when I told the people about it they said he had to call a certain number and that's the number he didn't have he had my cell phone number I told the lady I want to set up an account with my cell phone number on it she instructed me that she was pretty much a middleman for another service and I would have to contact them so they pretty much ripped me off for all that money and yes still I couldn't even deposit commissary funds into his account because that's not working on their website so I'm paying all this money for nothing with no refund or reimbursement and dissatisfied with this company and would like to report them to the better business bureau
We are so sorry to hear about your negative experience. Please know that we strive for all of our customers to have a great time when visiting Pigeonly. I see that your main concerns are commissary funding and phone services. Here is how we are planning on correcting these issues: we will provide links and information needed for your facility's commissary and we tell all our customers what charges are for upfront. Again, my deepest apologies for your negative experience. We hope that you come back to see how we are improving. Thank you for your feedback! We will use it to grow our business and correct our mistakes. All the best.
Fast, easy, reliable way to send love to your loved ones. Your inmate deserves another chance. This to shall pass
Hello Shawna,
Thank You so much for your review.

We are pleased that you love the service and are delighted that you are a customer of Pigeonly.
Answer: Hello: To all who have suffered multiple, unauthorized charges by Pigeonly. I have submitted all necessary info to classaction.org to initiate a class action suit. My request is being reviewed by lawyers who will let me know if Pigeonly's actions warrant a class suit. You can go to classaction.org to review the process. You may also want to check out the current suits and settlements to see if you qualify as an injured party entitled to a portion of the settlement. If the lawyers decide we have a valid case, they will draft the complaint and file with the appropriate court. The judge must approve the class action before it can go any further; the lawyers will reach out to injured parties, and/or post the suit/settlement on classaction.org, newspapers, etc. If you aren't contacted, please make the effort to join this class action once it's posted. It doesn't require an appearance in any court, nor much of your time. These people are lining their pockets at the expense of so many of us already forced to deal with unfortunate situations. Let's stand together and stop this greedy corporate fraud. [email protected]
Answer: Report to police. They are running a scam. Used all my available credit on my card. I am filing police report tomorrow and they will investigate. I'm done.
Answer: I have it and for the first month worked fine now not working so I just went and got a cell # in his area and said forget it not paying for a service that does not work And when you call customer service they keep saying they are working on the issue and it has been 5 days since my first call saying it wasn't working they are letting you get through for about a month then assigning the # to someone else attaching it to that persons number a big, Ole scam do not use them
Answer: You can send a postcard or letter to your loved one and include your assigned number. Or give them the number the next time they call. Also a lot of jails have implemented emails.
