Welcome to Sprint

Sprint built the largest all-digital, all-PCS nationwide network with advanced multimedia services, reaching more than 230 million people for clarity you can see and hear. We built our network to give

you what we believe you really want from a wireless phone: clear sound, private conversations, and time-saving features.

But with Sprint, you can do something even more far-reaching: simplify your life. Our advanced technology is designed to grow with your communications needs, so that one day you’ll be able to rely entirely on your PCS Phone to stay connected.

This guide will familiarize you with our technology and your new PCS Vision Ready Link Phone through simple, easy-to-follow instructions. If you have already reviewed the Start Here Guide, which was packaged with your new phone, then you’re ready to explore the advanced features outlined in this guide.

If you have not read your Start Here Guide, go to Section One – Getting Started. This section provides all the information you need to quickly activate your phone, set up your voicemail, and much more. It also contains information on how to contact Sprint if you have any questions about your service, wish to check your account balance, or want to purchase additional products or services.

Thank you for choosing Sprint.
