October 12, 2020

My son is 15 and I still can not visit or schedule a visit. They have you deposit money on so many accounts it's a shame. I've spent 100's of dollars I only get collect calls and I can send messages to him, no visitation.

Letters to paul.
October 13, 2020

My friend is in prison. His name is Paul. My husband needs to have him and many others depend on paul for who he is. He is in jail not for his character, but behavior. Hoping to keep contact with him is very important. This site made it easy to find him.

Hello Kristi,
Seeing that you had a 5-Star experience is the best thing we could hope for! Your review means a lot to us. I would like to let you know the process when you put in an order. Once your order is placed it prints out within 24 hours and shipping is 3-5 business days. Once it arrives at the facility it all depends on how quickly the staff gets mail to the inmate. If you have any other questions do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for choosing Pigeonly.
