I had an unauthorized charge of 4999 on my credit card. This company is a scam. It is not real. I dont care what the website says. It is not real. It is a scam and they are taking peoples money. They are a government service to assist inmates with money no, its a scam.

I signed up for their service, to put money on a inmate in jails account to use the phone. I could /never get the service to work. I contacted them the same day 7/20/24 and told the service was not working. I want a refund for the $49.99 the company charged me.Review from Elissa C

Do not use this website! They charged my card without my consent I did not proceed to check out I did not agree to terms and conditions and when I request refund they only want to refund me partial. It is a scam do not enter your card information they do not tell you what they're going to charge you or why you're adding your card information to begin with.

Scamming site imitating global tel link company using similar name, logo and services. Mislead you to set up and acct and add card without specifically stating they are charging you *****. Than less than 12 hrs called to cancel and they claim they can only refund 35. So they scam hundreds of ppl out of *****. Horrible customer **********************. Hang up whenever they please. They try to convince you its cheaper phone calls with inmates but cannot tell you the rates. When I call the jail facility, they say they are not affiliated with this company and do not offer discounted calls rates with any company. Either way how do you save if paying ***** at the beginning. No where does it say non refundable fee of *****. Scam artists!Dial91.com (a service from GlobalTel) Response

This company is a F***ING joke! I really wish there was an option to leave a zero star rating because they dont even deserve the 1 star rating I chose. I tried to add money to my prepaid phone account online vs over the phone like I normally would and somehow stumbled upon their website where I was prompted to create an account. They charge you in the amount of ***** as you reach the final steps of creating your account where other business will prompt you to create an account after doing so they then explain the services they offer with the prices and fees. If you choose the services they offer they ask you to read terms and agree and then they ask you again if you are sure you want the services they offer for said price. This company didnt do any of that. When I realized what I had done in less than ************************************************************************************************************************************************************* to which they responded my account had been canceled and my ticket was received an they would respond promptly. After almost 2 weeks with no update I sent another email asking for an update regarding the refund I had requested to which they didn't even respond but instead I received and email saying that my email had been rejected and blocked. I still have yet to receive my refund or an update on my refund. I am so fed up and don't know what else to do but as a single mother of 3 living on a fixed income it's not easy to just dust off a 45 dollar charge for BULL**** services that you can't even use.Dial91.com (a service from GlobalTel) Response

Dear Customer,

We offer a service that really helps Customer, nationwide, to save on inmate's calls and mitigate the high cost of calls completed for the Big Monopolies in Jail Call System. Our Special Connect numbers can work with any facility no matter what phone provider it is served by. We provided you with 100% working number. But to make it work for your inmate from facility, you needed to follow our instructions to register and fund it with your facility's provider.
Your account with us was cancelled and refunded earlier as agreed.Review from mitch r

This company is a piece of **** and very misleading. They give you a "special" phone number to use to try contacting with inmates. The jail facility I needed said they are not affiliated with this company. I cancelled my account within 48 hours of opening it. When attempting to get a full refund of my $45.99, they claim that there is a $14.99 non refundable fee. Nowhere did I see anything that states a non refundable fee of $14.99. All over $45.99, I am considering litigation against this fraudulent company. It may very well cost them a whole lot more than just refunding me my $45.99.Everyone, BEWARE - DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!Dial91.com (a service from GlobalTel) Response

Completely misleading, followed instructions from email with a special phone number for inmate to call to ring to my phone, i paid $45.99 on 02/02/23 for unlimted calls for 3 months. Followed instructions to click on Global-Tel link , then takes you to connect network which is not affiliated with Global-Tel,Email also states to create an account with Global-Tel link and put in special number.i had already signed , but it had no balance, nowhere to put special number, and it said i had to add money, which i did not because i had already paid Global-Tel for this service that i am not able to use. I just want my money back for a service i can't use, from all the other reviews, nobody is able to as well, just want all my $45.99 back, couldn't use the service at all, now on 02/03/23 want a full refundDial91.com (a service from GlobalTel) Response
