Your Direct Connect Number

Your Sprint phone allows you two different options for your Direct Connect number.
Your Direct Connect number will be one of the following:
● Separate numbers (DC Only) - Your Direct Connect number is a unique number (not
your wireless number). It is made up of three sets of digits separated by asterisks (for
example, 444*5555*111).
● A single number (Mobile+DC) - Your Direct Connect number is the same as your
wireless number (for example, 555-555-1234).

Understand the types of Direct Connect numbers for making Direct Connect calls.
● If the person you are calling has a separate number for Direct Connect, make sure you
dial any asterisks (*) in the number. If you are saving the number in your Contacts,
choose DC Only for the phone type.
● If the person you are calling has a single number for both voice calls and for Direct
Connect, use that ten-digit phone number to make Direct Connect calls. You do not
need to add any asterisks (*) to the number. If you are saving this number in your
Contacts, choose Mobile+DC for the phone type.
Tip: Users with a Nextel phone must always add asterisks (*) between sets of numbers to
dial Direct Connect numbers. If you use a single number, make sure to tell your contacts
with Nextel phones to dial the number using asterisks (*) in place of hyphens (for
example, 555*555*1234).
Tip: One way to easily ensure that your contacts have your correct number is to call them so
that they can save your number from their Call Log. Ask them for their contact
information. Remember you will need all digits of the number to make a successful call.
Also, if they have a Nextel phone or a separate number for Direct Connect, you will need
to enter asterisks (*) between sets of numbers.
To tell if a number is a valid Direct Connect number:
