DEFIANCE prefixes in area code 419
NANPA records 13 assigned NXX blocks to rate center DEFIANCE in area code 419, 1.7% of the 783 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. 7 holders hold those blocks, the largest being BRIGHTSPEED OF NORTHWEST OHIO, INC. (4), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - OH (3), NEW CINGULAR WIRELESS PCS, LLC - IL (2). The earliest assignment on record here is 2001-08-20 and the most recent 2002-03-15. 7 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 636, 712 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
