SHELLMAN prefixes in area code 229
NANPA records 5 assigned NXX blocks to rate center SHELLMAN in area code 229, 0.7% of the 685 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. 3 holders hold those blocks, the largest being CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - GA (2), MCC TELEPHONY LLC (2), WINDSTREAM GEORGIA COMMUNICATIONS CORP. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-07-08 and the most recent 2015-04-30. 4 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
