hiya my kids dad in walton on remand how many visits does he get

My husband was convicted and sent to Walton on Friday gone my daughter phoned later that day to book a reception visit on my behalf and was told there was no reception visits… I wouldnt be getting a visit til end next week,is this right? Ive been waiting all day for a call, what time are calls usually allowed please? Also we was told the money he took with him for his canteen was put into his property and we had til 3 oclock to send a postal order or he would miss his canteen friday coming…. Why was that please

I am going on a visit to walton prison and don’t know what I. D I can take. I don’t have anything with my photo on?

Birth certificate and letters of proof of address or marriage certificate

you need to speak to the govenor at the prison

Hi i have a 2 hr drive to see my boyfriend in prison can i have a double visit?

when you go to the post office u can ask them to put hmp on the front of your postal order then u put your name and addess on the back of it then put his name and number just on the bottom but dont go over the line or it will be no good

Sue I did a postal order for my partner on the 24th I let them fill it out and put his name and prison number on the back I also included letters and pictures I was told by him today he may not get it because it didn’t have my name on the back also but because it’s not over 50 pound it’s exactly 50 he will get it put on his account but if it was over 50 he wouldn’t be able to. When filling it out put both your details on the back.

Hi Please can someone confirm how a postal order should be filled out, I put my brothers name and number on the front and my details on the back

My son went into prison on 13 November and we now have an allocation number to bring in his clothes. Unfortunately, due to staff shortages we have been unable to leave the clothes on 3 separate occasions. I have a visit tomorrow 8.12.15 would you be able to tell me if I will be able to leave his clothes as this is my last visit until 28 December. As I live an hour journey away it is not convenient to just pop in. Awaiting your response thanks

Hi could you tell me wich day is a allowed to bring clothis for prisoner

When I go for a visit, I’ve to take clothing, am I aloud to take toiletries in? or is it strictly just clothing?

This is all new to me and dont have a clue about much lol

Closed prison will only be clothing also your boyfriend will have to fill out a form for the prison to allow you to bring them in for him

Also I’m not sure about open prison but if you ring the prison that he’s in they will tell you

Hiya , my boyfriend is currently on remand an has asked for me to go to the prison an see him , but am unsure what ID I need to take with me as I have no photo ID an am despite to see him , any advice will be very great full , thanks

Two recent letter with your address and name on like a utility bill or bank statement and photograph id with name date of birth and address like a passport or drivers license

What are association times of a sunday. Can prisonsers have association taken away from them.

How many times is a prisoner allowed to use the phone. Is it now on a timer or something. Gettin harder and harder to keep in touch lately and the post is days before he gets my letters.

Wot time ov the day will a prisoner ! Make a phone call . My friend went in on Friday an the prison rang me to tell me he was ok but he has not made a call to me yet an it’s been 5 days

Should of been able to make a call soon as he arrived. It’s their entitlement. May well of used it to call someone else but deffo should of had a call

Sometimes I’ve had calls 2 to 3 times in a day. Morning midafternoon and just before bang up for the night. It Varies

They are supposed to be given a reception call but that doesnt always happen or your friend may have used it to ring someone else. It can take a couple of weeks to set up their pin and then they have to put phone credit on to be able to call the approved numbers on their pin. Generally they use the phone during association but the queues can be lengthy.

Thanks the prison rang me with a masage from him !

How many vo can my brother have. He is enhanced and convicted also has a job. Thought it was3-4 per month but only confirmations for 2

Whilst you can send a cheque to the prison, I wouldn’t recommend it as the prison will take an age to cash the cheque before it shows up as available on your son’s canteen balance.

The quickest way, but again not the most secure, is to send CASH by ROYAL MAIL’S SPECIAL DELIVERY SERVICE. DO NOT use the recorded delivery option, this only guarantees a signature whilst the other guarantees delivery, a signature and you get a full reference number to check the status of delivery. ALWAYS keep any receipts and ALWAYS include your sons prison number and name. Also, you MUST include your full details as the sender.

There are other ways also, you can register to the Email a Prisoner Service who also as a sideline do prisoner payments but I think this is only for privately managed establishments, for now. Postal Orders are another method but remember, cheques and postal orders HAVE to be made payable to ‘the governor’ and NOT to your son although that said, you MUST include your sons prison number and name either as the reference or written on the back.

I hope the above helps, if you have any further questions or queries please feel free to drop me a line directly and I will help as much as I can.

There isn’t a quick method unfortunately. The life of HMP is that five minutes on the outside really does take five minutes, on the inside, five minutes can take 5 hours, days, weeks and in worst case scenarios, months and years.

Thank you very much Sott.most helpful. Roy

Postal order from post office fill the bk in with ur name and address it regastered so if it goes missong it can be traced I been doing this for many years

Can you tell me pleaseplease how many vo can my brother have. He is enhanced and convicted also has a job. Thought it was3-4 per month but only confirmations for 2

How do I put credit on a prisoners account

You can now book a prison visit online

You can now book a prison visit online

Booking a prison visit should be simple and straightforward. Until now that was far from the case. Booking a visit required both prisoner and visitor to jump through hoops: paper forms and drawn-out phone calls. And if the visit date turned out to be impossible, they had to start all over again.

Now you can book a visit online . It takes about 5 minutes. Before, picking an available date was pot luck. Now there's a date-picker that lets you select 3 possible slots instead of 1. It’s a straight-forward service with user-needs at its heart but, if you get stuck, you can call the prison's visits booking line and someone will help you with the booking.

Here's a very short film we've made about it:

By making it easier to book visits, prisoners will see more of their friends and family. Evidence suggests this will help their rehabilitation. Transformation isn't just about websites.

The service was built by the Ministry of Justice, with a combined team from the National Offender Management Service, HM Prison Service and MoJ Digital Services.

Comment by Olivia posted on 30 July 2015

Hi, If a visit is booked and someone cant make it, is it possible to change the name of one of the people to someone else?

Comment by Louise Duffy posted on 30 July 2015

It's best to contact the prison directly if this happens. You can find contact details here: http://www.justice.gov.uk/contacts/prison-finder

Thanks, Louise

Comment by Paige posted on 28 July 2015

Hi my partner was sent to nottingham today, I was on his previous list 4 months ago for a visit. Will that still be on the system all will it have to he put through again if so how long does it take to be approved for a visit? Thanks Paige.

Comment by Louise Duffy posted on 29 July 2015

You might want to get in touch with the prison first before booking a visit. You can find the contact details of the prison here: http://www.justice.gov.uk/contacts/prison-finder

Comment by Debs posted on 27 July 2015

Hello Is there a list of prisons where online booking can't be used?

Comment by Louise Duffy posted on 28 July 2015

According to the information on this page: https://www.gov.uk/prison-visits , you can arrange a visit to any prison in England and Wales through this service. If you're visiting someone in Northern Ireland or Scotland you'll need to contact the prison directly.

This link also lists the type of visits that are not covered by the online service: https://www.gov.uk/prison-visits so you need to get in touch with the prison directly.

Hope that's helpful.

Comment by c.steer posted on 26 July 2015

So how do I find the booking form to fill in I am new to computers

Comment by Louise Duffy posted on 27 July 2015

Here's the link to the booking form: https://www.gov.uk/prison-visits

You'll need this information to complete the form:

prisoner number prisoner’s date of birth dates of birth for all visitors coming with you make sure the person you’re visiting has added you to their visitor list

Hope that's useful.

Comment by Shawnaa posted on 09 May 2015

i have a visit booked which i did online but i do not have a visiting order woll the prison let me in?

Comment by Carrie Barclay posted on 11 May 2015

Your identity will be checked on arrival to make sure you’re on the visitor list.

Comment by jessicca posted on 27 January 2015

What happens after you book the visit and its confirmed by email do you need the visiting order ?

Comment by Carrie Barclay posted on 29 January 2015

The Visiting Order (VO) number is generated by the booking system, it is included in your confirmation email and you will need this to change or cancel a booking.

However, if you're visiting a prison the guidance is that you only need your ID, not the VO number. If when you visit the prison you are asked for the VO number you should report this via the Contact Us link on the Prison Visits Booking form.

I hope that helps.

Comment by Ilysa Mcnally posted on 18 November 2014

How late in advance can I book e.g. book a visit today (Tuesday) for the Sunday coming???

Comment by Carrie Barclay posted on 19 November 2014

Hi Ilysa. Thanks for your question. A visit needs to be booked 3 working days in advance. So in this case, the visit request would have to be no later than Tuesday to allow for a visit on Sunday.

Comment by carole posted on 23 October 2014

How far in advance can you book visits

Comment by Carrie Barclay posted on 23 October 2014

Hi Carole. You can book up to 28 days in advance. Thanks for your question.

Comment by kimberly posted on 16 August 2015

Visiting the prison

Booking a visit - domestic visits (Family & Friends)

Prisoners are responsible for booking their own visits; this is done by using an application on the Central Management System (CMS) – accessed via touchscreen computer terminals that are located on each unit in the establishment. Once a visit has been approved it is up the individual prisoner to inform his family and friends of the date and time of the visit.

The maximum time a visit can be booked is 14 days in advance and the minimum is 3 days in advance.

Prisoners can book up to 3 adult visitors per session and 3 children less than 18 Years of age. However, if the child is over 17 they will be classed as an adult.

It is the responsibility of the prisoner to book and inform friends and family of the time and date of visits.

Staff are not responsible for booking or informing family and friends of visits or cancellation of visits.

It is also the responsibility of the prisoner to inform visitors of correct identification requirements as well as other visit regulations, however visitors are encouraged to check the website for further details.

For sending correspondence / emails to your family or friend in prison, you can take advantage of the emailaprisoner.com system. Please log on to https://www.emailaprisoner.com and follow the instructions.
