Money deposits for someone incarcerated at Danville Corrections Facility go through facility-approved third-party services, on-site kiosks, retail agents, or mail to the vendor. Before sending anything, confirm which methods the facility currently accepts. When making a deposit, enter the incarcerated person's full name plus their booking/ID number (or date of birth) so the payment posts correctly. Funds typically go to a trust or commissary account. The facility or vendor may apply new deposits toward outstanding balances or court-ordered obligations first. Electronic deposits usually post faster than mailed payments, and transfers between facilities can delay availability. Plan ahead if they need commissary or phone funds by a certain date. For a Securus account refund, contact Securus at 1-800-844-6591 or www.securustech.net.
