Important: Voicemail Password
– Sprint strongly recommends that you create a
password when setting up your voicemail to protect against unauthorized
access. Without a password, anyone who has access to your phone is able to
access your voicemail messages.
Voicemail Notification
There are several ways your phone alerts you to a new voicemail message.
● By sounding the assigned ringer type.
● By displaying within the notifications area of the status bar when new unheard
voicemail message(s) is received. The figure is the number of new messages. This icon
means you have ten unheard new messages.
Note:
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network, you may not receive
notification of new voicemail messages. Sprint recommends that you periodically check
your voicemail by dialing 1 + area code + your wireless phone number. When your
voicemail answers, touch and enter your password. Roaming rates apply when you
access voicemail while roaming off the Nationwide Sprint Network.
