They ask for too much information. Red ****************** is called GlobalTel and they are a company that provides "low cost calling for inmates and their families". Which is fine. But they are preying on the desperate and I fell for it a step at a time. They asked for my birthdate, address, relationship to the inmate, photo of my drivers license!!! Photo of myself!! And credit card information. All the while my son was trying to call using the service. I am smarter than this but I provided what they asked for. There is no reason they should have all of that unless they are facilitating identity theft. I want my information back but it's ********* Box....I am asking the company to delete my information. I wish I had checked them out BEFORE falling for this!! GlobalTel or Interactive Media Technologies are the same. Shady. As for the charge for 3 months service, I saw that; what I am not clear about is how my son can use the service to call us. Thank you for listening and I hope the appropriate agencies will check on this. Thank you.Review from PBennett

I'm so upset! At the most vulnerable times of people's lives, this happens! I was not aware that I would be charged $49.98, the print must have been so fine, that it could not be read. Afterwards, I tried to contact the company to cancel, but it just rings until a recording comes on, your only option is to leave a message because there is 'no support staff available'. I tried to cancel online, but there is no way to do this. This is so heartbreaking because with enough on our minds with our loved ones being incarcerated, it doesn't help that this company takes advantage of that! Not to mention our credit card information may be compromised...so upsetting!Interactive Media Technologies, Inc. Response

SecurTel provides no upfront information that you will be charged $45.98 for a 3 month subscription. The cost is in the fine print of the agreement. They provide you a Google voice type number to register for your people to use to save cost on calls. They have a non refund policy in that small print agreement. There is nothing on the five pages that you sign up to use their services that says this $45.98 is automatically charged to you. You receive an email for the charge. This is a rip off because their information states they are associated with Securus Technology and they are not affiliated. Do not sign up for this company it’s a ****. There are so many terrible reviews about this company. BEWAREInteractive Media Technologies, Inc. Response

I would rate 0 stars if I could! Was looking online for information and set up an account. The site never disclosed the $45.99 fee. I then I called to customer service they refused to issue a refund and the woman actually hung up on me when I said I would be making a complaint!Interactive Media Technologies, Inc. Response

Awful, they don't disclose that you are going to be charged $45.98 just to create an account. You can't speak to an actual person to get a refund. And the only way to talk to a billing person or supervisor is through email.Interactive Media Technologies, Inc. Response

I would give this company no stars but I have to do at least one to leave a review. Their fees are hidden in their ******************* I have NOT used ANY of their services but they will not give me a full refund. They said a Full refund might be considered for our customers in cases when our service did not make inmates calls cheaper. I told them that the services I am currently using are cheaper than the fees Ive already paid to them, without knowing. But I cant even be considered because I havent used their services. But I have repeatedly explained that I DO NOT want to use the services. I did not realize that I was going to be charged when I signed up because the fees are hidden. I am DEMANDING a full refund as this is ridiculous & unprofessional. I am not the only other person complaining over these fees.Interactive Media Technologies, Inc. Response

When my relative first tried to contact me on July 8th 2023, the automated calling system did not work when I attempted to call the number given for assistance. I then needed to search for the website with no guidance because of the failure of the calling system. The result I found associated with that number brought me to a site which does not give me the option to search for and add money to my relatives account and instead sets up with my own number but doesn't actually help my relative contact me in any way. It wasn't till after the account was made and money charged that I realized it never asked who I was trying to contact. I was forced to search even more to eventually find the correct website and add money to my relatives account so he could actually make calls. I then tried to have my relative use the number I was given because it claimed to give the best price per minute when he used it, but he was unable to connect to me using that number. The whole ordeal from beginning to end has been misleading and frustrating to say the least and I think that a full refund is in order considering that the service promised by the company was not delivered. However, after contacting customer service, they would only agree to refund part of the charge. The whole thing seems designed to confuse and the non-refundable portion of the charge seems unreasonable for a service I can not even verify that they provided because no aspect of it worked in any way.Interactive Media Technologies, Inc.
