Sprint Direct Connect 41 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).

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.
