88 Section 2D: Controlling Your Roaming Experience
Understanding Roaming
Recognizing the Roaming Icon on the Display Screen
Your phone’s display screen always lets you know when
you’re off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Any time
you are roaming, the phone displays the roaming icon ( ).
Roaming on Other Digital Networks
When you’re roaming on digital networks, your call quality
and security will be similar to the quality you receive when
making calls on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network.
However, you may not be able to access certain features,
such as Sprint PCS Vision.
Tip:
Remember, when you are using your phone off the Sprint
Nationwide PCS Network, always dial numbers using 11
digits (1 + area code + number).
Note:
Unless your Sprint PCS Service Plan includes roaming, you
will pay a higher per-minute rate for roaming calls.
Note:
If you’re on a call when you leave the Sprint Nationwide
PCS Network and enter an area where roaming is
available, your call is dropped. If your call is dropped in an
area where you think Sprint PCS Service is available, turn
your phone off and on again to reconnect to the Sprint
Nationwide PCS Network.
