Saturday On-Site Visits at Bryan County: What to Know If You Don't Have Internet
No internet at home? Bryan County offers limited Saturday kiosk visits in the detention center lobby. You still need to reserve ahead of time, so planning matters.
The Saturday lobby kiosk is specifically for family and friends who don't have internet access through a personal computer or cell phone. Most visits at Bryan County are set up through the NCIC video visit portal, and that same sign-up system applies to Saturday kiosk visits too.
Note: Saturday lobby kiosk slots are limited. Schedule as early as you can to lock in a spot.
Every in-house visit has to be scheduled in advance. Bryan County requires at least 24 hours' notice, and that includes Saturday lobby kiosk visits for people without internet access.
Reminder: Schedule your visit at least 24 hours in advance, or you can be turned away.
Bryan County directs family and friends to sign up through the NCIC video visit portal. Even if you're planning to use the Saturday on-site kiosk because you don't have internet at home, you still need that portal to reserve your time slot. A public library computer or a trusted friend with internet access can help you get signed up.
- Access the NCIC video visit portal. Use any available internet option you can safely use (for example, a public computer).
- Create your visitor sign-up. Follow the prompts to set up your account.
- Schedule the visit time. Choose an available slot for an on-site visit and submit the request.
- Schedule at least 24 hours ahead. Same rule applies to all in-house visits, including the Saturday lobby kiosk option.
Note: Video visits at Bryan County are recorded.
Plan around the time limits. Each inmate is allowed two visits per day, and each one lasts 20 minutes. There's also a 10-minute cool-down period between visits, so you can't roll two back-to-back without a break. Set your expectations for the format, too. In-house visits are video-only and no-contact, even when you're sitting at the lobby kiosk. Cost is worth knowing about: inmates get one free in-house visit every 30 days. After that, each additional in-house visit costs $10.
If you end up doing visits off-site instead, remote visitation is available from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM. Need to add money to an account? The facility has a payment kiosk in the lobby that accepts cash and credit card deposits to a prepaid account.
