Your User Name
When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you’re automatically assigned a user name,
which is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” (For
example, the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might have
[e-mail] as his user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the Nationwide
Sprint Network. Your user name will be automatically programmed into your phone. You don’t
have to enter it.

If you aren’t sure what your user name is, you can easily find it on your phone.
