How to Contact an Inmate at Tyger River Correctional Facility, SC (SC)

GTL handles phone calls at Tyger River Correctional Facility. If your number is blocked from receiving inmate calls (or you want it blocked), contact GTL phone support at 1-866-230-7761. Want to set up a prepaid option? Call 1-800-483-8314 to create a GTL PrePay account.

Each visitor needs their own account for virtual visits. Create yours at scdoc.gtlvisitme.com/app. Even if you plan to visit alongside someone else, you each need a separate account. Make sure the name on your account matches the approved visitation list exactly. Virtual visits cost a flat $10 for a 50-minute session. You're charged when the visit starts. If the visit ends early, the rate stays the same, so don't expect a partial refund. You'll need to show ID during the virtual visit. Approved visitors age 10 and older must present a photo ID. Children under 10 need a certified long-form birth certificate.

Sending money by mail? Make the money order payable to "GTL Financial Services" and include the required deposit form. Money orders must be in US Dollars. The maximum for a single deposit is $300.
