      I am rejecting this response because:



      The facility states that they returned the television on April 10, 2023.  I think this is absurd that its has been 3 months now and this order has not been completely fullfilled.  I want a refund immediately or I will contact a lawyer.  I am beyond fed up with this entire process.  Access  does not answer the phone and I feel that I have wasted too much of my time waiting on hold to speak to a live person.  I dont have that kind of time to waste any longer!  I demand my money back immediately or I will be forced to contact my lawyer!  If I am not compensated by the end of this week, my lawyer will be contacted and I will sue Access Securepak for the cost of the television, as well as additional costs!



      Sincerely,



      **** *****

      I made 4 transactions with Access Corrections on 04/30/23 which is a company under Keefe Commissary Network umbrella and they said the transaction was cancelled but the money can out of my account and they told me I should take it up with my bank. However I my bank says the company is responsible for taking the hold off so I spoke to them again and still have yet to receive my money back

      Dear ******,

      The Better Business Bureau notified ** April 30, 2023, with your complaint about a delay in processing a payment on behalf of an offender located at the ********* Department of Corrections.

      In your complaint, you reference a deposit you made through Access Corrections on December 26, 2022, in the amount of $54.95. Your bank reported this charge was disputed by you January 16, 2023, and the transaction was reversed resulting in a chargeback to Access Corrections. You mailed a $200.00 money order to Access Corrections to pay the chargeback,which was received on February 16, 2023. On March 1, 2023, we processed the payment which resulted in an overpayment of $120.05 and you requested we apply the overpayment to the same offenders account. Our records show the deposit in the amount of $120.05 was applied to the account of *********************** ********, ID #****** at the ********* Department of Corrections on April 28th,2023.

      We extend our sincere apology for the delay and any inconvenience this may have caused.

      Please do not hesitate to contact ** if we can be of any further assistance.

      On 12-29-2022, I received my order #******* from Access Securepak with one item changed by my account, but was missing from my actual order.

      The item they charged me for was item#********, Velvetta Mini Blocks; priced at $7.45 + tax, which is a total of $7.64.

      To date, I have not received a refund, nor has anyone contacted me concerning reimbursement for this one item.

      My total order came to $29.15, before any fees or taxes were applied. The $7.45 mini blocks were included in that total order price.

      Access received $43.00 from me. They charged me $29.15 plus processing fee and tax which came to $35.29. I did receive a refund of $7.71 for the item that I was not charged for Velvetta Mini Blocks (#********).

      Enclosed is a packing slip that shows the entire transaction. Certainly they have had plenty of time to act on this. I have been patient with them.

      I would like a refund for the missing item in the amount of $7.45 plus tax.

      Thank you for  your response regarding my complaint against Keefe Commissary Network Sales.  I am writing to address the response from Keefe in which they requested more information in order to provide me with an answer to my complaint.

      Specifically, they wanted to know the following:  my SID# is ******* and I am incarcerated at the ****** ************ *********** in Jessup, Maryland.  Additionally, I do not know why Keefe claims that I owe them money.  They only stated that I owe them $94 and $25, which I finally dispute.  Finally, they spelled my name wrong - it is not "*******" it is "******."

      Once again, thank you for your assistance in helping me resolve this matter and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

      I am in receipt of your April 5th letter which I just received.  Unfortunately, I was unable to contact you before the 7 days f the complaint closing. 

      You stated that the business whom the complaint is against failed to find me in their system.  I'm of the belief that it was because of my CDC# was incomplete.  The correct number is CDCR#*****!

      Additionally, I'm sending you copies of my account balances which reflects the inaccurate amount which I've complained of excessively to the company.

      As it reflects on 3/16/22, I left $106.05 on my account.  The next time I accessed my account is on 11/14/22 when my family added $150.00 to my existing $106.05.  However, my balance although it should have totaled $256.05, it comes to $211.37, $44.68 is missing.

      Their next response on 2/3/2023 was misleading because my facility has nothing to do with my prepaid account.
