This number is to a company called Prison Call Solutions (PCS). They help inmates and their families have less expensive phone charges by deposing funds into an account that serves as a local calling card, to avoid long distance charges. this company serves all US jail facilities, hence all the different caller ID locations.
I get the calls, too, both from inmates and from debt collectors. I am wondering, is yours a Tracfone, That's when my trouble started. Never had that problem with Virgin Mobile but their phones kept breaking and the new ones are too expensive, so I ditched them. I wish they still had cheaper phones because this other service stinks.

I just called Mr. Hall. He was very nice and blocked my number from all calls from the Richmond City Jail. He checks your number first to see if the call is indeed originating from the jail and then blocks it if it is. You don't even have to give your name.
ODD I am in Nueces County TX.... This call came at 2:23 AM on my cell. Didnt answer because #1 they woke me up out of a dead sleep #2 it came up as Dallas,TX. They did leave a voice mail. Alls I caught was "........jail. If you accept this call it will be 9.99 for 15 minutes of talk time".... It was 17 seconds long.
