Checking for Voicemail Messages While Roaming

When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, you may
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.

To check your voicemail while roaming:

Dial 1+area code+your Sprint PCS Phone Number.

When you return to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network, voicemail
notification will resume as normal.
