First things first:
Call us to get activated.
Before you can use your new Sprint PCS Phone
™
, you need
to open your Sprint PCS Account – in other words, activate your
phone. You do that by calling 1-888-715-4588 (in Southern
California, call 1-800-PCS-6699) from any phone other than your
new Sprint PCS Phone. Don’t worry. This call is on us.
Note: If a Sprint PCS Sales Representative has already activated
your phone, then there’s no need to place this call. Instead, see
“How to unlock your phone” on the next page.
