How can I send money for an inmates phone account?
There are currently two (2) ways to deposit funds in a Debit CPS Account: • Friends and family may send a personal check or money order to a Client • Clearly mark “Telephone Account” on the check • Do not combine funds for the Debit CPS Account and the Trust Account in a single check • The check amount is converted to minutes and placed in the Client’s Phone Account • These funds are exempt from the normal obligation deductions (NOTE: Funds remaining in the Debit CPS Account upon Client release are subject to these deductions.) • Clients may request a transfer of funds from their Trust Accounts to their Debit CPS Account (NOTE: Remember, these funds have already had appropriate obligation deductions deducted when originally deposited in the Trust Account.) NOTE: We are exploring the possibility of enabling friends and family to deposit funds to a Client’s Debit CPS Account and Trust Account online via the www.Maine.gov website.
