How To Get a ConnectNetwork GTL Refund

ConnectNetwork is a service designed for connecting inmates with their friends and family members.

The company is owned by the Global Tel Link (GTL), a telecommunication company focused on providing services to correctional facilities.

ConnectNetwork allows its users to communicate with inmates by:

• Sending messages
• Scheduling a visit
• Receiving phone calls
• Making deposits to an inmate

Signing up for an account is free, and there is no monthly subscription. Once you're in, you can make a deposit or add funds to activate the service of your choice.

What Is the ConnectNetwork Refund Policy?

ConnectNetwork offers a variety of services with different refund rules.

The general policy allows you to cancel your account within the first 30 days and get a full refund for funds you have added to your account but have not used.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund if I No Longer Need My Account?

Yes, you can get a refund for any unused balance in your account.

This rule applies to the AdvancePay accounts as well, since this type of account allows you to add money in advance to receive phone calls.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund for My AdvancePay Account if the Inmate Is Moved to an Incompatible Facility?

In most cases, the account can remain active even if the inmate is moved, without any interruption in service. The only exception is when the new facility is not supported by GTL. In that case, you need to cancel your account, but you will get a full refund for any unused funds.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund for Phone Call Related Issues?

ConnectNetwork offers no refunds for certain phone call issues.

You cannot get a refund for:

• Any call that is cut off prematurely
• Poor audio quality during calls
• Issues with phone calls made to cell phones or processed through call forwarding service or Internet-based telephone service

If you experienced a different problem with a phone call, you can request a refund, and it will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund for the Unused Message Credits?

There are no refunds available for the paid but unused message credits after the first 30 days of creating the account.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund for Unused Funds in the PIN Debit Account?

You can't get a refund for the PIN Debit account, but the inmate can after their release.

When you create a PIN Debit account, it belongs to the inmate. The account balance is inmate controlled, you can add funds to it, but cannot check the balance or request a refund once the account is not in use.

Can I Get a ConnectNetwork Refund for Link Units?

When you make a deposit to the inmate’s Debit Link account, the funds are turned into Link Units, a form of in-facility currency.

Link Units are generally not refundable, but if you believe your situation requires a refund, you can ask for one. Take note that you will have to pay for the conversion and close-out fees.

Methods To Request a ConnectNetwork Global Tel Link Refund

• If there is an unused balance in your account, you will need to confirm your address before your refund request is accepted
