Roaming on Other Networks
When you
’re roaming on other networks, your call quality and security will be similar to the
quality you receive when making calls on the Nationwide Sprint Network. However, you may not
be able to access certain features, such as data services, depending on the available network.
Note:
If you
’re on a call when you leave the Nationwide Sprint Network, 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.
Check for Voicemail Messages While Roaming
When you are roaming off the Nationwide Sprint 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.
