Remember, InmateAid's Discount Telephone Service is not a replacement for the service at the jail (GTL), but we get you a local telephone number to make their calls the cheapest they offer. Local calls are about $4.00 less than an in-state long distance call. You still pay the local rate, but the savings of $4.00+ per call justifies the $19.95/month fee in only five calls.
