How to Contact an Inmate at Evans Correctional Inst., SC (SC)

Evans Correctional Institution falls under the South Carolina Department of Corrections (SC DOC), so phone rules and support options follow SC DOC's inmate phone process. If your number is blocked from receiving inmate calls (or you want to block it), call 1-866-230-7761. Blocks can happen for a few reasons, including phone service billing or collection issues. That same number is also the quickest way to confirm your status and find out what needs to be fixed.

If you'd rather skip collect calls, SC DOC offers a PrePay phone account. Call 1-800-483-8314 to set one up. Sending funds to an inmate trust account by money order is a separate process. The money order must be made payable to "GTL Financial Services," with a $300.00 maximum per money order, issued in US Dollars.

Steps to Follow

• ✓ Call 1-866-230-7761 to request that your phone number be blocked, or to ask whether your number is currently blocked from receiving inmate calls.

• ✓ Call 1-800-483-8314 to set up a PrePay phone account for SC DOC inmate calls (an alternative to collect calls).

• ✓ When sending a money order for an SC DOC trust account deposit, make it payable to “GTL Financial Services.”
• ✓ Keep each money order at $300.00 or less.
• ✓ Use US Dollars.

Before you send money or count on a call going through, double-check the current rules through SC DOC's channels. Confirm whether your number is blocked and what the unblock (or block) process requires by calling 1-866-230-7761. Verify the current PrePay setup steps at 1-800-483-8314. If you're mailing a money order deposit, confirm the payee name ("GTL Financial Services"), the $300.00 per money order limit, and the US Dollars requirement. Procedures can change over time, so a quick call now saves headaches later.
