FALMOUTH prefixes in area code 508
NANPA records 11 assigned NXX blocks to rate center FALMOUTH in area code 508, 1.5% of the 749 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 VERIZON NEW ENGLAND INC. (7), CELLCO PARTNERSHIP DBA VERIZON WIRELESS - MA (1), ONVOY, LLC - MA (1). 6 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 231, 774, 859 – overlay codes cover the same geography, so a rate center is served by all of them.
