Inmate Calling ServicesPrison Payphones

On January 30, 1996, the Commission adopted a Declaratory Ruling that inmate-only payphone instruments are customer premises equipment (CPE) that must be provided on an unregulated basis. The Commission additionally denied petitioner's request that certain inmate-only services be considered enhanced services. The intended effect is to ensure that the inmate-only payphone market remains competitive.
