GRAND RPDS prefixes in area code 218
NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center GRAND RPDS in area code 218, 1.8% of the 708 blocks assigned in the code. A rate center is the billing geography a block is allocated to – NANPA truncates the name to ten characters, so read it as a NANPA label rather than a town. 8 holders hold those blocks, the largest being QWEST CORPORATION (4), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MN (2), NUSO, LLC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-05-04 and the most recent 2025-01-24. 10 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots. The same rate center name also appears in area codes 419, 567, 616 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
