Roaming
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when
you’re off the Sprint National Network. Any time you are
roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls on the Sprint National Network.
However, depending on the network available where you are
roaming, certain features may not be available.
Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Sprint National Network, you
will not receive on-phone notification of new voicemail
messages. Callers can still leave messages, but you will need
to periodically check your voicemail for new messages if you
are in a roaming service area for an extended period of time.
Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint
National Network, always dial numbers using 11 digits (1 +
area code + number).
Note:
Unless your Sprint service plan includes roaming, you will pay
a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint National Network
and enter an area where roaming is available, your call is
dropped. If your call is dropped in an area where you think
Sprint service is available, turn your phone off and on again
to reconnect to the network.
