Filling Out Money Orders
When sending a money order to add funds to an inmate’s account it is very important that the money order is filled out correctly. The money order MUST be made payable to the ‘Inmate Trust Fund‘. You will also need to print your name and address on the bottom left-hand side of the money order and the inmate’s name and sid number on the bottom right-hand side of the money order.
The money order will get returned to you if it is filled out incorrectly.
my mother has been trying to send my brother some money and she always send it through western union but now every time she goes there they are telling she can not i don’t know why?? are you having issues with western union???
Glenda – We are not the actual Bexar County jail. We are a private website that tries to help people who have family or friends in jail. But we did get some information. The Bexar County jail is no longer accepting Western Union. We were not able to find out if that was a permanent or temporary thing. We suspect permanent.
