Your User Name
When you buy your phone and sign up for service, you are automatically assigned a user name,
which is typically based on your name and a number, followed by “@sprintpcs.com.” (For example,
the third John Smith to sign up for Sprint data services might have [email protected] as his
user name.)
When you use data services, your user name is submitted to identify you to the network. Your user
name is automatically programmed into your phone. You do not have to enter it.
