Sprint Star (*) & Pound (#) Dialing Codes

Lindsay emailed to ask if I could post a list of all of the current "*" & "#" dialing codes.. so by request, the list is below. Note that some of them are state/geo based, especially the 211,311,511,711,811 codes. So dialing them in Las Vegas will get a different result than dialing them in New York.

  • Airtime charges apply when dialing * and # numbers with the exception of *2*3*4*5*7*911#911611 and #ROAD, unless otherwise noted below.

  • Star or pound codes may or may not work in a roaming coverage area (including *2*3*4*5, or #ROAD).
