Can I receive collect calls from a correctional facility?

As a comparison based telecom site here at PhoneDog.com, we do not provide the local and long distance services.  However from the local and long distance section of the site, you can determine which company that we compare offers the best value in your area.  Most providers do allow collect calls from correctional facilities as long as you authorize your line to accept collect calls.  In most cases for the call to be completed the correctional facility would also need to know the name of your local provider.
