PAW PAW prefixes in area code 269
NANPA records 5 assigned NXX blocks to rate center PAW PAW in area code 269, 0.9% of the 545 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. 4 holders hold those blocks, the largest being FRONTIER NORTH, INC. - MI (2), ONVOY, LLCV - MI (1), SOUTHWEST MICHIGAN COMMUNICATIONS, INC. - MI (1). The earliest assignment on record here is 2004-09-29 and the most recent 2006-07-17. 4 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 304, 681, 779, 815 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
