TARBORO prefixes in area code 252
NANPA records 9 assigned NXX blocks to rate center TARBORO in area code 252, 1.3% of the 695 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. 5 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BRIGHTSPEED OF EASTERN NORTH CAROLINA, LLC (3), COMMIO, LLC (2), ONVOY, LLC - NC (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-02-26 and the most recent 2026-06-01. 5 of them are in thousands-block pooling, so those prefixes are shared between carriers in 1,000-number lots.
