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 a couple of different ways your phone alerts you to a new voicemail message.
● By sounding the assigned notification sound.
● By vibrating the phone when the vibrate setting is on.
● 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.
Note:
Your phone accepts messages even when it is turned off. However, your phone notifies
you of new messages only when it is turned on and you are in a Sprint service area.
