3. Enter your four-digit lock code. (For security purposes,

the code is not visible as you type.)

If you can’t recall your lock code, try using the last four digits

of either your Social Security number or Sprint PCS Phone

number or try 0000 or NATL (6285). If none of these work, call

Sprint Customer Service at 1-888-211-4PCS (4727).
