WEDOWEE prefixes in area code 256
NANPA records 3 assigned NXX blocks to rate center WEDOWEE in area code 256, 0.4% of the 786 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 BRIGHTSPEED OF ALABAMA, LLC - NORTHERN (1), DOVETEL COMMUNICATIONS LLC - AL (1), SOUTHERN COMMUNICATIONS SERVICES, INC. (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2003-10-24 and the most recent 2012-08-20. 3 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 code 938 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
