Nextel® Welcome Guide
Note:
If you are bringing your phone number from another carrier, we
suggest you set up your Voice Mail box after the number you brought
to Nextel is active on your Nextel device and your temporary phone
number is deactivated. If you set up your Voice Mail box prior to this,
all messages and all settings (including your greeting and password)
will be lost when the number you have brought to Nextel becomes
active.
Setting Up Your Voice Mail Box

Using your BlackBerry device, dial your 10-digit Nextel Personal
Telephone Number (PTN). For example: 7035557777.

New users initial password defaults to the last seven digits of their
phone number, for example: 5557777.

your 10-digit PTN. When you hear the greeting, press the star key (
to access your Voice Mail box. The system will prompt you to Enter
