I would like to add that the message does not state that there will be a fee charged as I explained to the representative when they contacted meWhen a person from the jail calls you and you choose to set up a prepaid account there is not a mention that a fee will be chargedI understand fees may differ depending on the state you are in but it does not say anything about a fee being chargedHowever I no longer need the services but I would like the fees that were charged to be refunded to meThe company will not do it so it is a waste of time they will keep just insisting that the message tell you there are applicable fees but it does notThank you Revdex.com.
