User Reviews

User reviews indicate CorrLinks Text Chat is unreliable and expensive. Frequent errors and outages prevent messages from sending or being received, often despite charges. Connectivity/server issues and login problems make the app hard to use. Pricing is criticized as high, with charges for messages, pictures, and video calls, even when delivery fails. Some users note it used to work for years, but recent updates have caused instability, delays, and missing notifications. Overall, customers rely on it as the main communication channel with incarcerated loved ones but want significant reliability improvements.
Pros
  • Provides a crucial channel to communicate with incarcerated loved ones.
  • Historically functional for years before recent issues.
  • Useful when other networks fail during outages or limited connectivity.
  • Often the primary or only way to contact inmates, making it essential for families.
Cons
  • Messages frequently fail to send or are delivered with long delays, and users are charged even when the recipient doesn't receive them.
  • Frequent connectivity/server errors preventing use (no connection, network errors, etc.).
  • Very high per-message/media costs; charges apply even when delivery fails.
  • Login and account access problems after updates/reinstalls; difficulty logging in.
  • App instability and downtime (crashes, freezes, unexpected errors, messages vanish).

I'm unable to messages to my loved ones. I have money on my account. I've updated the app but I'm having trouble.

I’m starting to receive a pop-up notification stating an attestation is required. I’m not sure how to get that taken care of due to the fact I can’t get in contact with support to resolve my issue. I thought the message I sent on Monday 5/11/26 was delivered but I checked this morning and my Happy Birthday message never delivered and it doesn’t appear as if it never typed and sent.
