I have had such a difficult time with this service. When they provide services, it is great, but they have 1.) taken unauthorized payments from my account now TWICE and 2.) charged me for the next month a week early! I paid for a month's worth's of service and they only gave me 3 weeks! SHADY AS HELL. As soon as I can find something that is comparable to the services they provide, I am switching. CROOKS.
Your letters and pictures will EVENTUALLY get to their destination. And they seem to be sent alot faster once the 99¢ trial month is up. Go figure. Alot of what is presented to you at time of purchase is misleading. Will also not let you send mail or pictures until the last one is done and delivered. Well that sometimes takes 17 days. Kinda BS.
Hello Michael and thank you kindly for the feedback. We regret the delays in your order and normally this is not the case and offer credits in such scenarios. Feel free to contact an Account Manager M-F 6-6 PM at 8003239895 in order for your account to be discussed in full detail. Thank you.
Canceled my subscription back in December but a charge comes out of my account now in March. The service rep says an update to the system must have charged me erroneously. Really? She said it will be 3-14 business days before I see a refund. I'm fine with that but question is, how is it that they're still charging me if I canceled my subscription?
Hello Carla, we understand your disappointment but I will guarantee you a refund if you were incorrectly charged. Unfortunately, we did a system change and it duplicated some subscriptions. Thank you for bringing this to our attention we agree what an inconvenience this is. As a company, we want to apologize and will correct this, if you need any further assistance call us Mon-Fri 6am-6pm pst@ 1800-323-9895. Thank you for your understanding.
It was good service that I could use to keep in touch with my father. Writing letters, sending postcards and sending card was great. He got everything on time but when I was sending pictures they never got sent.
If I could give a lower rating, I would. This is by far the worst system. None of the pictures or the letter I sent to my inmate were sent to him, they sent them to my address instead. The number "they provided me with" never worked. AND ON TOP OF IT ALL, I canceled my subscription three different times now for the past month and I'm still being charged. I was charged three days in a row at this very moment. And this is all after I've spoke to representatives about it, twice now. So be careful. They just keep taking money.
Hi Holly, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are sorry to hear your orders were not given to your loved one, if they were returned to you, it means the facility rejected them. In regards to you being charged multiple times, we can definitely have this corrected for you. Please call us at your earliest convenience at 1-800-323-9895 Monday to Friday- 6am-6pm. We look forward to hearing back from you.
I signed up for 3 months at $34.99. They have charged me $34.99 5 times since August 26. I contacted them 3 times and they told me I was going to get a refund within 14 days and never got it. They don't return my phone calls. I just got charged again on Oct 6th after emailing them and telling them what's going on. They did the same thing to my daughter. I have reported them to my bank as fraud and my money has been returned to me but I had to cancel my debit card that I've had for years. Shame on them for taking advantage of sad people just wanting to connect with loved ones

Pigeons is great for keeping in contact with your friends and family in jail. The regular services provided by the jail is expensive and can burn holes in your pocket. But with Pigeonly I can send as much photos and letters I want to my loved one and the phone discount is great as well. We can talk all the time without breaking my bank. Thank you for your service!
I purchased a 3-month subscription to send pictures to an incarcerated relative. The charge for the subscription was $34.99. My card was charged this amount on 11/27/2021. My card was charged $39.99 on 11/28/2021 without my permission. My card was charged $39.99 on 11/29/2021 without my permission. My card was charged $39.99 on 11/30/2021 without my permission. I contacted customer service to report the issue.
The merchant stated they will refund the "errors." I suspect this is fraud and I do not trust the merchant. My card has been charged every day for $39.99. The original product was $34.99. My card has been charged again since they said they would fix the "error." I contacted the merchant on 12/01/2021 via email and by phone. Why has my card been charged again in "error" today, 12/04/2021? This is clear and apparent fraud! This company should be reported for taking advantage of people who are vulnerable and trying to connect with an incarcerated loved one.

Before Pigeonly I have been stressed to the max trying to talk to my boyfriend. I have been spending an insane amount a week for just a few phone calls. This makes trying to support him and comfort him as well as well as him do the same to me make us both just irritated. Thanks to Pigeonly I will be spending way less and won't have to worry about money. The service was easy and super helpful. I highly recommend it to anyone who has an incarcerated

I have disputed with pigeonly about services not received as advertised and was granted a refund, but since then pigeonly has been sneaking in charges to my account which I have disputed and again granted refunds. My credit information has been removed from their sight, but somehow again yesterday I noticed that pigeonly has been starting up their sneaky thieving act of charging me again.

This company has took over a $200.00 dollars from me. They will not respond to emails or phone calls. They will keep you on hold for hours and hang up on you. They have took 20 7.99 payments and 3 19.99 and 3 14.99 payments. They are taking money out of my account a couple of time a month. DONT USE THIS COMPANY!

I used it one time, did not do a subscription, and they stole from me. I have called on so many occasions in the past two weeks to get my money back, they claimed that they already did it, but it took exactly two weeks for them to tell me that it could be up to 14 business days for me to get it back. No other person said business days. They just keep lying and telling me a different day that I'm going to get it back. They stole it from me in 2 seconds, and can't give me back my money that I didn't give them permission to take. This company is morally corrupt and is placed outside the US.
I signed up for Pigeonly. They would charge my credit card for other charges. When I called they said no that's not on your account. Exactly so why was I charged. They credit me then 2 weeks later credit my card again. Just to see if I would Catch.
Scam people! And try to get my money back 2nd time is a huge pain
Hi I would like to comment on my experience with Pigeonly. Truthfully in the beginning I had my doubts because it seemed to be taking such a long time to have it mailed. I know it read processing for almost a week it seemed like. I was kinda upset cause I know it didnt take probably minutes to process my payment to them but with all that said I apologize for doubting them because my experience has been great. I do wish they handled their commissary too but other than that I'm very satisfied with my subscription with them and would definitely recommend them 100%. Thank You Sincerely. Heather McGee.

Hi Cherrel, we are so glad we have met your expectations and to have you as a customer here at pigeonly. Dont hesitate to contact our customer service line at 1-800-323-9895.
I love the way this system works, only I'm disappointed because it sais unlimited but it won't let you send the way you would expect to it being unlimited. One order takes more then a week and longer for the other party to receive
Dear Lydia,
I sincerely apologize for the confusion the reason you are only able to send only one of each product at a time is that we don't want the facility to throw out any of your important mail in case they have a restriction as to how many mail orders of the same product can be received in one day. Mail is sent through the regular post office so that may affect the time it takes to arrive. Please call us if you have any questions!
Ok, so i m having some problems with the local number phone that they had provide to me. Honestly, the number only it worked fine for the first time call! Then i ve started to had some problems with it so i could not be able to use it anymore. I tried to contact them for telling them that i was having some problems with the number but they have just stop to replying to my emails!. For 17,99$ WHAT A GREAT SERVICE! Lol Honestly i thought they were different from the other scam sites. But if you say to a customer that the number it will work for one month then that is how it should suppose to be! And not for just one time call! Or you have to refund them!. After this experience i doubt i will ever use any of their service again and i think many of their other angry customers will do the same too!
