What the prison charges, per minute
5.50p
ringing your mobile
2.48p
ringing your Ringyard number
That’s 55% off every minute. Same phone, same calls — 2× the talk.
We give you a landline in the same area code as their prison. It goes on the phone list like any other local number — nothing to explain, nothing that looks unusual. Then they ring it, and your mobile goes.
Every pound your people don’t burn on calls is a pound left for canteen. Tell us how you chat and we’ll do the maths.

He doesn’t ring just one person. So everyone gets their own number, all in the prison’s area code, all on one bill. Nobody waits their turn, nobody passes the phone round.
No clock-watching, no rationing the good news to the end of the call. Pick how you pay — longer terms cost less.
1,500 minutes a month — about 49 a day. Extra minutes 3p + VAT. Prices are £19.99 a month before VAT. Cancel any time, in one tap.
Our word on it
The maths
Every call costs them less. The saving stays in their account — for canteen, for credit, for more calls.
31 minutes a day pays the fee. After that, it’s all money back.
Not sure how much you talk? The calculator above tells you straight.
Talk like that all year: £168 back.
Why? The prison charges them 2.48p a minute to ring our number, not 5.50p. The gap goes back to them, not to us. Talk less than 31 minutes a day? Then don’t buy this — the calculator will say so.
What it costs
Most places sell you minutes. Run out and you top up again, and the more you talk the more it costs. Ours is one price whatever happens.

Buying minutes: the more you talk, the more you pay. Us: the bill stops at £23.99. Talk more than 10 minutes a day and we’re the cheaper one.
Pay-as-you-go shown at 8.14p a minute — the cheapest bundle on FoneSavvy’s price list. Smaller bundles cost more.
You can’t. The prison caps what your people are allowed each week. What you can change is how far it goes.
Same cap, same canteen, same everything — the only thing that moves is the per-minute rate they’re charged.
Minutes a month, if all of it went on calls. Same money, twice the minutes.
That’s 34 more hours of talking, every month. Sending more money can’t do that — the cap stops you. Changing the rate does.
Nearly always. We give you a landline in the same area code as their prison, so on the phone list it looks like any other local number — there is nothing about it that stands out. A few prisons screen harder than others. If yours says no, we swap you onto a fresh number, free.
Your number works in about a minute. Then the prison checks it before it goes on the list, which is usually a few days.
Any time, in one tap. No phone call, no notice period, no talking anyone out of it. It runs to the end of the month you have paid for.
Nope. It rings your normal mobile on your normal network. Any phone, anywhere you’ve got signal.
Yes, if they call most days. 31 minutes a day pays the fee. After that, every minute puts money back in their account — 45 minutes a day is about £10 back each month. Talk less than 31 minutes a day? Don't buy it. The calculator will tell you straight.
Extra minutes are 3.6p each, VAT in. We email you at 80% so nothing catches you out, and nobody is ever cut off mid-call.
That’s the family pack — three numbers in the prison’s area code, one bill, minutes shared because his spending cap is shared anyway. It’s coming soon. For now it’s one number per account — email us if you want the family pack first and we’ll tell you the day it lands.
No. This number only takes calls. Use your normal phone for emergencies.
Ringing your mobile burns up to £38 of their money every month. Stop it in one minute. Cancel any time, one tap.
