You do not need to contact anyone prior to receiving a call from an adult ADOC inmate. Once your number is approved, you may begin receiving phone calls using any of the payment methods described below.

Prepaid Collect Calls

A Prepaid Collect account can be easily set up after receiving the first call from an ADOC inmate. During the first call, you will receive 60 seconds of complimentary talk time and then be given the opportunity to set up an account with a customer service representative. Alternatively, accounts can be set up through ICS Corrections' billing agent ICSolutions at 888-506-8407 or www.icsolutions.com.

• Note that taxes are separate from the Prepaid Collect balance.
• Purchases are posted on the same day.

Debit Phone Time

The new phone system from ICS Corrections has a real-time debit solution. Inmates, as well as friends and family, will still have the ability to put money into inamte's trust account using the methods currently in place.

Debit calling can be used by the inmate to call any number approved by their facility.

You must set up and fund a Prepaid Collect account through ICS Corrections' billing agent ICSolutions.
You may do this by simply following the prompts during your first accepted call or by contacting them at
888-506-8407 or www.icsolutions.com.

• Visa and MasterCard credit cards

There are three Ways to Purchase Prepaid Services:

1. Online: The fastest and easiest way to purchase prepaid phone services is by using the Online Payment Processing Service.

Blocks on Phones

When you receive a call from an ADOC inmate, you will be given the option to refuse that call. Additionally, you will be given the option to block all future calls from that inmate or all future calls from ADOC. If a called party blocks their phone number in error, they should call customer service at 888-506-8407 to remove the block.

The following restrictions may be applied by the ADOC to inamte calls:

• Limits on length of calls (currently 20 minute maximum).
• Limits on number of calls to the same number in a given length of time.
• Call monitoring, recording, and inmate voice validation (in order to place calls).
• Blocks on types of phone numbers (such as 800 numbers) or selected phone numbers.
• Temporary or permanent denial of phone usage rights for such reasons as disciplinary problems or requests by a called party.

Calls can disconnect for a variety of reasons including:

• Accepting call waiting
• Dropped calls from a cell phone or VoIP number (phone service over the internet) due to poor coverage
• Placing a call on hold
• Security reasons within the facilities

For Prepaid Collect customers, please call 888-506-8407. Our representatives can investigate technical problems with your phone call, including listening to the call recording to determine the cause. If it is determined that the problem was not caused by another external factor (for example, a bad cell phone connection), our Customer Care Representative can credit phone services back to the account that was used for the call.

Once your account has been created and funded, you can call (217) 426-0499 to leave a voicemail message for an inmate letting them know when you are available to receive a call. Voicemail messages are only $0.25. To leave a voicemail, you will need to have the 4-digit PIN you created when you set up your online account and the inmate's ID number.
