Everglades Re-Entry uses GTL/ConnectNetwork for phone service. GTL provides one free call per week during the contract term (up to 5 minutes per person, per week). All other calls cost a flat $0.135 per minute to any number in the North American Dialing Plan. Each call can last up to 30 minutes, and once it ends, there's a 30-minute wait before another call can start. To receive calls, you'll need to set up and fund an AdvancePay prepaid account through GTL's ConnectNetwork so the person inside can dial your number. If you run into account or calling issues, GTL offers 24/7 live support at 866-732-9098.
