How much do calls cost in prison?

Calls to prison are exorbitantly expensive. Particularly considering the prison's motto, "Maintaining family ties reduces reoffending." So why are phone calls so expensive in prison?

Inmates pay anywhere from 6p per minute on an off-peak landline to more than twice that for a mobile call. Although calling a prison phone from a landline is far less expensive than calling a prison phone from a mobile device, what do you do if you don't have a landline? Our unlimited prison call plan is the answer.

Save upto 75% on prison calls

Without a landline, calling a mobile phone to stay in touch with family members will cost you a fortune; the average cost of a prison call to a mobile phone is about 13p per minute.

Prisoners with wealthy relatives or those who are fortunate enough to land a well-paying job inside the facility may be able to afford this.

But for individuals within the prison who don't have access to outside funds or employment, the standard weekly inmate stipend is about £2.50. You would hardly be able to make two calls of ten minutes each to a mobile phone number.

We created our phone package to help reduce the extortionate phone call costs!

Cheaper Prison Calls!

I once asked the jail's governor and the Prisoner Ombudsman service within the institution about the exorbitant phone call fees. I was told that the large number of phone calls is due to the initial arrangement between HMPPS and BT, which provides phones and lines to convicts at no expense to HMPPS. In exchange, they have complete control over the phone charges, which cost the prisoner and their family, who are already struggling during a difficult period in their lives.

It's no surprise that illegal cell phones are so common in prison, given that people have little choice but to look for alternatives to stay in touch with their loved ones on the outside. This is unlikely to change anytime soon, as BT has been questioned about the deal multiple times by various jail governing organisations, but they refuse to budge.
