#5 Consumer Suggestion
Bail bonds are for people who can't pay the full bail amount.
AUTHOR: Mike - (U.S.A.)

For example if the bail is $5000, you might pay a bond company $500 and then they give the court $5000. No matter what happens next, your $500 is gone. It's the company's fee. When you appear at trial, the company gets the $5000 back. If you don't appear, then the fun begins. Using a quasi-legal "bounty hunting" process, the bondsman will try and find the fugitive and bring them in to get the $5000 back.
If you or someone you know can produce the full bail amount, there's no need to involve a bonding company. Give the money directly to the court.

#2 Consumer Comment
they couldn't handle it because the warrant was out of another county

Friend got arrested for 2 bad checks. Went to a local bail co and put up the $500 bond. The co called me back and said they couldn't handle it because the warrant was out of another county and they refunded my money. Had to put up the $500(cash) bail to the local county instead. The good news was that since I hadn't gone through a bail bondsmen, once the matter was settled, I received the whole $500 back. If I had gone through a bail co, I would have lost the total amount. So, find out your options.
