I'm not sure yet
September 15, 2020

I went with 3 stars, because I have not herd from my inmate or received a call... so my stars will change. I'm not sure if I did something wrong, or if I'm inpatient. Thanks though!

Its a blessing to have the ability to write my wife on the go, through my phone instead of have to go buy stamps, paper, envelopes and then sit down and write. This app is awesome I can b on the way to work sending a postcard, picture or letter. I love it and they dont try getting rich off of me like other apps that do the same thing, plus they have everything so I don't have to have 3 different apps. I can send money to her account, pay for calls, send pics, letters, postcards and arrivals from online. If you have someone locked up this is the best app to have. I was locked up 13 years and I wish they would of had this back then it makes it much easier to communicate

Easy to send photos
September 11, 2020

With pigeonly I was able to send photos to my husband super easily. I tried sending photos to him through regular mail only to have them arrive back go me. Close to a month later. It turns out that they don't accept photos at his facility sent directly from family. What a happy day for me to discover Pigeonly. It has made it possible for my husband to feel like he was there with us as we made new memories.

Hello Dorena. We in fact do not charge 25 dollars for the service. That dollar amount goes straight the phone provider at the facility. Our aim at Pigeonly is to stretch that 25 dollars further with a better rate via a local phone number. Any other questions or assistance needed feel free to contact an Account Manager M-F 6-6 PM at 8003239895. Thank you

The web pages flow easily, account set up and navigation were a breeze. Im disappointed that after i joined and agreed to pay a monthly reoccurring bill... i was taken to another page where it was a 3rd party and had an additional bill to pay to the jail. I understand its separated as its different businesses all together. Its just nice to know that once you agree to everything... the agreement changes on the next page after providing Credit Card info and being charged.

First time user
September 2, 2020

I found this website by chance. My husband is currently incarcerated and I try to write him at least every few days to help keep morale up. I know how hard it is to stay positive and not feel lost and alone in there when you don't hear from anyone. Im 31 weeks pregnant as well so it's not really all that easy for me to be able to just sit and write to him either due to being so pregnant I get uncomfortable very quickly. It's so much easier to be able to pull my stylus out and type a letter to him instead of trying to write it out. I actually got a letter completed in one sitting this time rather than a few.

Also with it being on my phone I can also copy and paste messages from other people or news articles etc to send to him as well which is really nice. Im not quiet sure about the turn around time or quality of product but it was nice to be able to send a quick custom postcard as well.

Thank you for an awesome service
