Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging

(also known as Text Messaging) allows messages to appear as short alphanumeric messages on your phone’s display screen. Y ou must purchase the Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging Option in order to receive text messages on your Sprint PCS Phone.

There are three ways to send a text message to a Sprint PCS Phone:

 E-mail (your phone number @

messaging.sprintpcs.com).

 Through the Sprint PCS Web site –

www .sprintpcs.com. Select the wireless web messaging link.

 Using messaging software (TAP 1.5 compatible).

Message T ypes

There are three types of messaging functions available through your Sprint PCS Phone — Voicemail, Numeric Paging and Sprint PCS Wireless Web Messaging.

Voicemail captures calls automatically when you can’t answer your phone or it is turned off. The voicemail system sends a notification to your phone letting you know when you have new voice messages waiting in your voicemail box.

Numeric pagingallows a caller to enter a phone number into your voicemail box

instead of a voice

message. The phone number

appears on your phone

as a numeric page.

Tip:

When you are roaming off the Sprint PCS Network, you may not

receive notification of new voicemail messages. It is recommended that you periodically check your voicemail by dialing 1 + area code + your Sprint PCS Phone Number.

your

voicemail.
