To Whom It May *************************** you for contacting us regarding an inquiry sent to your company by ***************************, a ******** inmate.
There is no *** information and doesnt appear to be coming for the inmate as there is an email address and inmates do not have access to personal emails. We also cannot research further without the *** number.
Without any information except a name,we can say that we do not currently see anything posted, scanned or in our office under his name. If mailed that long ago it would appear it was lost or delayed in the mail.
We have also looked in our inbox including all spam, received, sent, and archived, and do not see any correspondence within the past three years of contact being made.
**************** will need to send us a copy of his check, front and back, showing deposit to our bank, account, etc.and we will submit a refund request and send any funds that *** have been received back to him.
We appreciate your assistance with this.

ID COMPLAINT NUMBER: 21426685
To Whom It May ******************** you for your recent correspondence regarding an inquiry from ******************************* concerning **** inmate ***************************. It appears that this inquiry is initiated by **************** rather than ****************, as the provided physical address for **************** is inaccurate, and no ********** of Corrections (DOC) number has been provided.
**************** is currently incarcerated at the ***************************** in ****. **************** asserts that **************** has forwarded funds to us, although an email communication dated 1/31/24 from **************** indicates that the funds were actually paid for by a third party (email proof attached).
Since the initial email correspondence on 1/31/24, documented in the attached communications comprising 40 emails (20 exchanges), we have diligently responded to each inquiry from ****************. We have repeatedly clarified our policy, which stipulates that we can only disclose account information to the inmate or the payer. Additionally, our refund protocol mandates issuance of a refund upon receipt of proof of deposit, payer's request, and confirmation that the page has not been posted. We wish to emphasize that our intention is not to contest the receipt of funds, but to ensure compliance with our refund procedures, necessitating direct communication from the inmate or payer regarding refund requests.
Our records indicate that we commenced correspondence with **************** on 9/26/23, stressing the requirement for a signed application to facilitate posting of the page. Despite multiple letters sent to **************** on 9/26/23, 11/12/23, 1/31/24, and 2/16/24 the latter two issued subsequent to refund inquiries we have yet to receive a properly signed application. Since receiving payment and submission from **************** on 9/15/23, we have not had direct communication from him. We have advised ****************, and reiterated in our correspondences, that any issues with **** mail should be addressed by sending tracked, certified, or legal mail to ensure delivery.
It would seem that all seven letters purportedly sent by *************** have been lost in transit. While we have cooperated with **************** for over six weeks, we are unable to proceed further without direct communication from either the payer or **************** himself. Despite not being solicited by ***************, we have promptly and professionally responded to ******************** requests,even proactively initiating mail to **************** in a customer service capacity to facilitate resolution.
Consequently, we consider this matter resolved until such time as we receive direct communication from ****************.
Sincerely,
Staff at WriteAPrisoner.com

The company will not remove a profile even after the inmate has requested profile removal. They are pushing it out so that they can get more money when the profile renews. They say that they have not received his four requests to remove even after sending it certified mail they have lost it, or just refused to remove the profile. incredibly rude customer service super disappointed.Business response

ID COMPLAINT NUMBER: 21372101
To Whom It May ******************** you for reaching out regarding an inquiry sent by *******************************. Unfortunately, without specific inmate information, we're unable to conduct research on her case.
Regarding our policy on profile removals, clients receive information in their welcome packet and it's also accessible on our website. Pages aren't automatically renewed; renewal occurs only if requested and paid for by the client, a friend, or a family member.There's no additional income generated from a page if the client or inmate requests removal. There's no additional income generated from a page if the client or inmate requests removal unless they choose to stay on our website
If correspondence is sent via Certified Mail, the sender receives a tracking number and notifications regarding delivery status from the ***** It's improbable that four letters sent via Certified Mail would lack a receipt or record to the client, as all relevant information is provided by the **** website.
We strive for professional and prompt customer service. ******************** can contact us anytime at general-****************************** for further assistance though we cannot give client account information details except for to the client.
Here is the information on our website regarding a profile removal:
All requests for removal need to come directly from the inmate. Inmates must submit in writing that they want their profile removed. Once we receive their written request, a confirmation letter is mailed back to them. Once this is returned to us, the profile is removed. We ask the inmate to send these requests via Certified Mail. This is done for their protection. Under no circumstances will we remove a profile unless the inmate requests it directly and in writing. This can take a few weeks. If the inmate has stated that we are not responding to their requests for removal, this is incorrect. We respond to every letter that comes into our office, and our goal is to get inmates who dont want to be listed off as soon as possible to help free up pen-pals for inmates who need them. This is why we always ask the inmate to send his or her signed profile removal confirmation request to us via Certified Mail. When an inmate's profile is placed on our website, a welcome packet, which includes a copy of the profile, is sent to them via postal mail explaining this policy in detail.
In the event the inmate is deceased or has been released, please send all supporting documentation and information to us. As long as we are able to confirm this information at a government website, we will remove the profile.
Thank you for your assistance in resolving this inquiry.

ID COMPLAINT NUMBER: 21372101
To Whom It May ******************** you for reaching out regarding the additional limited information provided by *******************************. While we appreciate her input, we have multiple team members, and it's unlikely that the same person would handle every email, inquiry, or complaint.
Upon reviewing ******************** file, we note that *************************** has contacted us regarding a removal request. Our records show that we've responded promptly and professionally to over fifteen emails from her.However, it's unfortunate to note that many of her responses have been disrespectful towards our staff.
******************** began emailing towards the end of October. We promptly reached out to ****************** within a day of receiving an email from *******************, where he expressed his desire to be removed from the website.Although a removal form was sent, ****************** has never directly contacted us to request removal. ****************** has been a client on and off our website for over ten years and would be aware of our policies.
Subsequently, ******************** emailed a copy of a signature page, but it did not adhere to our strict submission guidelines for client protection. We informed her of this and sent another signature form directly to the client.In a recent email, ******************** mentioned that ****************** had sent four certified letters. However, it's improbable that none of them reached us, as the sender would be notified of delivery status. Upon requesting a tracking number, ******************** provided 9589 0710 5270 1293 8563 65, though in research, it was not recognized by the **** website. We advised her to check with a different carrier, but she has not responded to our inquiry.
We offered to reach out to our local postmaster, and even go the post office to speak with someone if there had been a certified letter received though not picked up, or not responded to. ******************** did not respond to that offer.
Our policies are in place to safeguard our clients, and both ****************** and ******************** are aware of them. We have handled this inquiry professionally and consider the matter closed until we receive direct communication from ****************** himself.
Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.

COMPLAINT: 20165220
Thank you for contacting us regarding an inquiry from *********************, though please note that we have not heard from ******************************* directly at any time since his page was posted.
The page was posted on 9/27/23 and the welcome packet was mailed within **** days. There are instructions given in the welcome packet to ask for a page to be removed. ******************************* has had a profile on our website in the past and had requested it be removed prior to the expiration date, showing he would be aware of our policy.
Our removal policies are strictly adhered to for the protection of our clients.
From 9/27/23 to this date, we have received no correspondence requesting to be removed from ****************************** via **** mail from his facility.
On December 11, 2023,we received an email from ********************* stating that the client had notified us of his desire to have his page removed. We replied to ************** within 75 minutes with our removal policies. (Attached a copy of that email to this inquiry.)
On January 3, ****, we received another email from ********************* stating that there would be a BBB complaint filed and asking that we send a signature form to the inmate.
We have that ready to mail on 1/4/23, though if your office is going to respond to the inmate, we can wait until we receive his request via **** mail.
If ******************************* is having issues with his **** mail, we do suggest to our clients that a letter be sent certified, with tracking, or via legal mail.
We are always happy to remove a profile if someone requests it as that creates more opportunities for our other clients to receive mail from people who are looking for a pen pal/friend.

Write a prisoner provides a $65, 1-year subscription to post a user's profile on their webpage. After a year they offer a renewal, also for $65, and advertise that your profile will be moved back to the "top of the list" for more exposure. However, the "list" is not the regular profile list, it is a renewed or updated profile list, and does not get the same level of exposure or viewership whatsoever. Therefore, they charge the same fee, make the subscriber believe that their profile will get the original profile exposure, but then do not deliver. The result is that the subscriber does not actually receive the benefit of the subscription they pay for, i.e., that their profile will be viewed. They also offer a two-month extension for referrals. Despite making seven referrals to new users, I was only awarded two extensions. I wrote to the business headquarters with my complaint, but it was ignored.Business response

******* ******* ********
COMPLAINT: ********
Thank you for contacting us regarding an inquiry from Mr. ****** ********
Mr. ******* has been on and off our website since 2013. His most recent page posted was processed on 10/16/2021 and at that time had an expiration date of 10/16/2022.
Mr. ******* does not give any information in his inquiry to you, so we are unable to research fully though we do show since that posting his page was extended by eight months for four referrals. His page was renewed last June, and the current expiration date is 08/16/2024.
We do reply to all mail and emails and do not show any contact from the client directly. We have been in touch approximately 25-30 times with a friend/family member in the past two years with inquiries and concerns.
The cost to renew is 50.00 and that includes adding a photo, changing the text, and extending the page by fourteen months instead of twelve. Due to the length of time from his renewal over five months ago, he has been off the profile alert listing traffic listing for quite some time, though we do show the profile alert date was listed on his page.
No profile stays on the home page or is the top of the listing for the sixty days, as we input profiles daily and that changes the list daily.
If a client has any concern, we are happy to work with them to rectify any issue though we have not heard from Mr. ******* or any friend/family member since June when the renewal was paid for.
If Mr. ******* would send us information via USPS mail of any names of persons he referred we can compare that to the listing we show he was given credit for and verify the expiration date is correct.
Thank you.

"My position is that writeaprisoner.com has still not responded to the claim that they actively mislead their clients. There is more than one " profile list." One list is for new profiles. And the others are for updates and renewals. Clients are led to believe that when they update or renew their profiles, it goes "to the top of the list." But these updated/renewed profile lists do not get much traffic at all. So, when I update or renew my profile, I am spending money with the company under the guise that I will get increased exposure of my profile, consistent with the exposure of creating a new profile. This simply does not happen.
If writeaprisoner refuses to put my profile at the top of the new profiles list(to make up for not doing so when I renewed my profile earlier this year), they will lose my business and they will lose my referrals, and the referrals of the people I have referred. I have generated thousands of dollars in business for them, and they have misled me.
They are "proud of their policies". But their policies are misleading. I am further requesting that in the future, if they wish to maintain my business, that they put renewed profiles at the top of the " new profiles" list, or make it clear to consumers that renewed profiles will go to a less-viewed, separate list.
Thank you"Business response

Justin ******* **********COMPLAINT: ********
Thank you for contacting us regarding further information from Mr. ****** *******.We have been updating and upgrading our website for the past twelve months and we have been working with our clients and the developers to make the website the best it can be. Mr. ******* is not correct in stating that any listings other than the new listing gets less traffic. Under the lists the top three are the high traffic listings and they are “Search Inmate Listings”, “Inmate Newest”, and “Recently Updated”.
There may be policies in the past that have changed as our website changes and grows and can affect certain things that clients who have been with us for a while have not had the time or opportunity to see the changes.
We will add Mr. *******’s page to the new listing for sixty days as a customer service though we again do stand by our policies as a business and do not promote misleading or incorrect information

To Whom It May Concern:
Thank you for contacting us regarding an inquiry from Sheila ******* though nowhere on the complaint do we see any information on who this is refence to.
In using her email address, we show an email received from Ms. ******* on 9/22/23 at approximately 2:30 and we responded to her on 9/22/23 at 6:30, informing her that the processing office was closed though we would research and reply to the client on Monday (9/25/23). We explained to her in that email that we would refund any money received once we had proof of that if the page was not posted and the payer requests it. We just received the BBB complaint from her in today’s inbox.
As per her complaint we were sent two letters from the inmate, and they were responded to. The letters did not say the page would be posted in 6-8 weeks; they state “once we have everything required to post the page in our office” the page will be posted within 6-8 weeks. If we do not receive or have the content, no page can be posted.
The letters sent to the inmate state that if the funds were requested by the inmate more than three months from the time they are writing, they would need to obtain a copy of the check (front and back) showing deposit to us. With that we can issue a refund and contact our bank.We do not request or remove any money from any inmate trust fund account, only the inmate can do so.
The client has been on our website in the past and we do not see there were any prior issues with his page, and we did not hear from him during that prior posting.
At this time, we do not have anything in our holds file, nothing has been scanned, and nothing posted. His packet may have been lost or delayed in the mail.
Ms. ******* or the client can email or mail a copy of the check to us (front and back) showing a deposit to us and a refund will be issued. It has always been our policy to issue a refund if we have proof of deposit and if the page is not posted.
Thank you for your assistance in resolving this inquiry as show we have been professional and expeditious in our dealings with the client and the family.

Thank you. Our records indicate we received a gift payment for a profile for ******* ******, an inmate in Michigan. This gift payment was submitted on 2/9/23 and received on 2/10/23. As per the verbiage when a gift packet is purchased, we mail the client (inmate) a gift packet within three days of receipt of payment. the packet for Mr. ****** was mailed on 2/13/23 (Monday). The gift packet informs the client that a gift has been purchased for them and we send an application to fill out, sign, date, and rturn to us, with their desired photo and text.
As of this date we have not received that from the client.
We did not receive any emails or inquiries from Ms. ********* either regarding a refund or what actions had been taken.
We have never offered chat support, and we certainly would never charge a fee for support of any kind. It sounds as though the customer may have gone to a different website, and we would recommend taking that up with the other business or their credit card company regarding a $5.00 charge.
We would be happy to either request a refund for the credit card holder, or assist her in submitting the content for the profile so it can be posted quickly.
If she prefers to wait for the inmate to send us the content, we are happy to process once received or send another packet if he has not received the first one.
Please ask Ms. ******** to contact us directly at [email protected] and we would be happy to assist in whatever she wishes to accomplish.

On 10/24/2022 $65.00 was paid on my behalf to create a new profile. At this time a photo and Ad was uploaded to the website. On 11/02/2022 Write-A-prisoner activated an previous account from nearly 2 years ago, with no photo included. Their pamphlet and website quote's $65.00 as the cost for a new profile. After paying this amount a expired account was reinstated instead, with inaccurate information that no longer pertains to me.

Thank you for contacting us regarding information for *************************** though without the credit card holder name, and more information, we cannot fully respond to this complaint.
If payment was made on 10/24/22, we would have received the payment information on 10/25/22. From that date we do ask for an **** day turnaround time to post all profiles. The page was reinstated on 11/2/22, within our requested time frame.
**************** profile was a "reinstated" profile paid, for meaning we would post using the old information though as a customer service, we do offer the payer to submit new content.
We do not show any emails to us from anyone regarding ************ though without a name, or more information, we cannot research fully.
The page was posted on 11/2/22 so if a letter was sent we would not have had time to have received and/or responded. If an email was sent, we have searched our database and do not see anything under his name except this complaint.
Please ask the person who contacted you (no name given) to contact us at general-****************************** so we can research and rectify any issue. We will be happy to post a new photo, and new text, and edit/update any inmate information when that is received.

Thank you for contacting us regarding further information for *************************** though as per our last response to you, we did ask that either the submitter or the client contact us so we could assist.
We were not given a credit card holder name, a user account, transaction ID, etc. from either the submitter or client and did not receive emails regarding inputting pages or even updating the content.
In having to research with the credit card authorization company we found a payment from "Gunnie D" submitted as a REINSTATEMENT. We are attaching a copy of the receipt from the credit card authorization company and a copy of what the submitter paid for the page under for verification of this information.
We received one email from *********************** (also attached) with no mention at all of a client, or an issue with a payment, etc. This email was responded to the following day, and we have not heard from the emailer since though the user account is active.
Even though pages are reinstated (as is) we d offer to allow the client to submit new content as part of the package. No one submitted any new content.
Since we have not heard from ************ directly, nor the person who paid for the profile and filed the complaint, we have refunded the credit card holder for the total purchase price and removed the page.
If ************ would like to submit a new profile, he may do so at anytime via **** mail and will mail a new application and brochure to him to use if he wishes to do so.
Thank you.
Sincerely, Staff at WriteAPrisoner.com
