Default Calling the prison??

Hey ladies... i just need some advice. My man usually calls everyday. and he hasn't called in 5 days, i'm worried. we aren't fighting and we're good.. we don't write cuz he calls all the time.... i've never called the prison where he is but i was gonna call & see if they are on lockdown or if he's in the box. i don't want to seem like a hysterical girlfriend & if i call do they tell them someone called asking about them??
THX!!

If he's cool with one of the guards they might tell him but who cares you have the right to be a worried girlfriend

There is nothing wrong with calling to find out if the facility is on lockdown. I do it all the time. And if the facility isn't on lockdown, you could try and speak with his counselor. He or she may be able to tell you if he's in the hole or whatnot. And, no, they don't typically tell an inmate when a loved one called.

Hope you hear from him soon.

Definitely call ! who cares what the prison thinks. I call if I dont hear anything in 24hours. Just ask them if his unit is on lock down, or if he is in the hole, and write him because he should get the letter within a couple days no matter where he is.

I mailed my handwritten letter today, but I've been sending jpay's every day since I talked to him last (Sunday). If he's in the hole will they give those to him like the regular mail? Oh my 8 years of this? Im going freaking nuts. This man better keep his nose clean (sorry im getting frustrated now). This just isn't like him and its killing me

Im not sure about jpay, because we dont have that where my fiance is, but I know that regular mail will get there within 3 days. Did you call yet? The whole unit could be on lockdown, or they could of moved him.
