October 17, 2020

I recently found out about this Townsend my fiance pictures to get through this time away and I'm hoping he is getting them.

Update to all... this site has proven to be amazing to me. My fiance recieved his pictures and his not. I am very happy with this and have sent more through here to help him get through his days in. Really recommending this site to other ladies with men in there

Very cool service
October 16, 2020

This makes talking to inmates much easier. My nephew is incarcerated right now and our family really don't talk to us so all we have is each other. And it just gets hard taking care of life out here and supporting him in there.

Very good, fast, convenient way to talk to your inmate. Pictures, letters all that.
You can send them anything whenever, they may not read it until later but you can send whenever wherever.

Excellent
October 15, 2020

I am so impressed with Pigeonly.com. They are certainly a inmates family best choice. They are simple and easy to use to corespond with our inmates. I joined 2 or 3 different companies.in last few days. I've lost time and money., I m happy to say this is a company I would recommend to any families that have loved ones in the judicial system. Love rates for sending cards, pictures, messages, You simply sign up and write they do the rest. How easy is that? And the rates are really low. They are having a special. 99c for the first month. Join now.

Hello Megan,
We are delighted that you are a customer of Pigeonly. I can provide you some information about the subscription you signed up for. It is a bundle subscription including Photos, Phone Service, Postcards, Articles, Letters, & Greeting cards. You are able to go online on our website from your phone, tablet or computer and select a service to send to your inmate. Pigeonly has in house shipping so customers don't have to worry about shipping anything out. Pigeonly has same day shipping-meaning it will be printed within 24hrs and sent to the mail office the same day, but delivery can take 3-5 business days to reach inmates, and this does not include screening time. If you have any other questions please give us a call at (800) 323-9895 M-F 6:00 AM-6:00 PM PST.
