Sprint PCS Account Passwords

As a Sprint PCS customer, you enjoy unlimited access to your personal account information, your voicemail account, and your Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision account. To ensure that no one else has access to your information, you will need to create passwords to protect your privacy.

Account Password

If you are the account owner, you'll have an account password to sign on to Customer Service. Your default account password is the last four digits of your Social Security number. If you are not the account owner (if someone else receives the invoice for your Sprint PCS Service), you can get a sub-account password at

www.sprint.c om.

Voicemail Password

You'll create your voicemail password (or passcode) when you set up your voicemail. See “Setting Up Your Voicemail” on page 114 for more information on your voicemail password.

Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision Password

With your A580 by Samsung, you may elect to set up a Sprint PCS Vision or Sprint Power Vision password. This optional password may be used to authorize purchase of Premium Services content and to protect personal information on multi-phone accounts.
