Providers of inmate calling services
must report annually, using the template created by the Wireline
Competition Bureau, the following information: current interstate,
international, and intrastate rates; current ancillary service
charge amounts and the instances of use of each; and the monthly
amount of site commission payments. Any provider of inmate calling
services that provided video visitation services must report
minutes of use, per-minute rates, and ancillary service charges for
those services. Inmate calling service providers must also report
the number of disability-related calls provided, the number of
problems experienced with such calls, and the number of complaints
they received related to access by TTY and TRS users. Each inmate
calling service provider must file a certification with the
Commission annually that includes the above information and a
statement from an officer of the company affirming the accuracy of
these data and the provider's compliance with the provisions of the
Second Report and Order, 30 FCC Rcd 12763. Finally, the consumer
disclosure rule requires ICS providers to inform customers about
their ICS rates and ancillary service charges.
