Direct Connect Numbers

Sprint Direct Connect is compatible with two different types of Direct Connect numbers.
Separate numbers – Some Direct Connect numbers are a unique number (not a standard
n
wireless phone number). This type is made up of three sets of digits separated by asterisks (for
example, 444*5555*111). When calling a person or storing a contact with this type of number, be
sure to include the asterisks in the number. If you are saving the number in your Contacts,
choose DC ONLY for the phone type.
A single number – Some Direct Connect numbers use the same numbers as the wireless
n
number for the phone (for example, 555-555-1234). 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 other than DC ONLY for the phone type.
Your Direct Connect Number
Your Direct Connect number is the same as your wireless phone number (for example, 555-555-
1234). Sprint Direct Connect is compatible with this type of Direct Connect number as well as Direct
Connect-specific numbers separated by asterisks (for example, 444*5555*111).
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 logs. 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 separate number
for Direct Connect, you will need to enter asterisks (*) between sets of numbers.
